I think we are planning a day with the Gypsyblood this year so I hope they have a supply of extras just in-case.
 
This is interesting. As a former medical professional I have catheterized many patients both male and female but never used a "texas catheter" which is apparently what I will be using for myself for the P-Valve.

Now for the most interesting part.........What size. LOL I will go to the local medical supply house and ask them if I can try them on. I suppose I now have a reason to measure my member. LOL this is funny. Do they make XXXsm? :wink:

Call Rochester medical and ask for a sample pack. It will include a paperboard gauge. Use the gauge while you are in a flaccid state and don't flatter yourself. You want it to roll on without wrinkles.

When you try your first one on, try not to take it right off. It will cling tenaciously and you won't have a good time. Once you wear it for a few hours your body oils will temper the adhesive and it will roll of, starting at the base with little discomfort. In normal use this takes care of itself.

They are measured in metric diameter so its' not quite as apparent if you need to call out your size on the boat.

It may all seem like a lot of bother at this point bet being able to hydrate with abandon and void at will while diving dry is a wonderful thing
