Nexus Ridge Rider Review

We've had great fun reviewing Nexus sex toys and when they asked if we minded reviewing their latest sex toy we said yes without hesitation. Shortly after the kind folk at Nexus (care of pleasure2me) delivered the new Nexus Ridge Rider, described as a male G-Spot massager with 5 vibration settings.

This is what they had to say about the product:

Expertly crafted in luxurious brushed silicone, the Nexus Ridge Rider features a slender shaft encased in soft ridges which work with the unique base to create an intense dual sensation everyone will enjoy. The silent yet powerful motor boasts 5 individual vibration settings primed to deliver strong resonances straight to the G-Spot.

The Packaging

Nexus Ridge Rider - Box Front

The Nexus Ridge Rider comes in a sleek black box, with clear viewing windows to the front and sides. There's a sample of the "Super Soft Silicone" in the bottom right corner. The nexus logo is in shimmering silver whilst the Ridge Rider is in a turquoise colour.

On the rear there's a summary of the vibrator, explaining what it is and what it offers. The description mentions that it is crafted from luxurious brushed silicone and has a soft ribbed shaft. It has 5 vibration settings and is both odourless and Phthalate-Free.

Underneath the plastic trays inside that hold the Ridge Rider stable during transit you will find a comprehensive manual in English, French, German and Spanish. This guide has a comprehensive step-by-step list of instructions on how best to use the product.

Overall, a very nicely designed box as I expected from Nexus that is both sleek and sexy, with clear windows into the product itself. This is perfect for giving as a gift.

The Product

Nexus Ridge Rider Review

The Nexus Ridge Rider follows an upside down ‘T’ shape. The shaft is ribbed and has a gentle ‘S’ shaped curve culminating with a bulbed top. The base curves and has pronounced tips at either side, with one side coated in soft nodules (I counted 27).

Underneath the base is a power button which also controls the vibration pattern. There’s also a battery compartment which takes a single AAA battery.

The packaging refers to the Nexus Ridge Rider as a G-Spot massager but in actual fact it has been designed for men as a P-Spot massager. That said, it lends itself perfectly to massaging the G-Spot as you will find out.

The Review

When the Nexus Ridge Rider arrived we took the "G-Spot massager" literally and instantly set about reviewing the toy as a vaginal G-Spot massager. Then we thought wouldn't it be great to use it as an anal P-Spot massager. That worked too. It turns out that if we had read the instructions properly we wouldn’t have felt so smug with our ingenuity! So as a male toy that could also be a unisex sex toy we thought it probably best to review it from both sides. I reviewed using the toy as a prostate massager whilst Mrs STS reviewed the Ridge Rider as a vaginal vibrator.

Once I had read through the supplied instructions I followed their advice exactly. It’s a simple step-by-step list that helps you to use the Ridge Rider as it was intended. Firstly everything needs to be clean, so grab yourself an anal douche and make sure you clean the massager thoroughly.

As advised, I liberally lubed up the massager and around my anus with thick water-based lubricant. I then lay on my side in the foetal position which helps with entry. The Ridge Rider is a moderately sized anal toy and the tip is oval shaped measuring around 1.5 inches by 1 inch. As such, it requires patience, time and relaxation to slide it into your anus. The girth of the shaft changes slightly as you slide the massager in and the ribs feel really nice as they push against your anus as they slide past.

It took me a few minutes to slide the massager fully in. After about halfway the girth reduces slightly so it makes it easier as you get towards the end.

The next stage is patience. Nexus advised waiting 15 minutes before doing anything else to help the anus relax to accommodate the toy. This is frustrating as I lay there with  fully erect penis that was crying out for some attention. In previous tests like these I have given in to temptation and orgasm within minutes of entry. However this time I would not let the excitement get the better of me.

Around 15 minutes later the Ridge Rider felt much more comfortable. I could feel it there but it felt more normal than unusual, as it did upon entry.

The Ridge Rider has been designed with a rocking motion in mind. The angled base means you can rock back and forth and it should cause the tip to massage your prostate gland. It took a few goes and a few different surfaces to be able to get this right. A solid floor (wood, laminate, tiles, empty bath - the Ridge Rider isn't waterproof so don't use it in a full bath), offers more pronounced feeling whilst anything padded (carpet, duvet, etc) dampens the feeling somewhat.

I decided to try and avoid penile stimulation so turned on the vibrator and continued rocking alone. Five patterns are available:

  1. Slow long pulses then fast short pulses in a cycle
  2. Bursts of vibration then a gap
  3. Constantly on
  4. Short bursts
  5. Three pulses then a gap

I preferred the patterns with a gap as this was more teasing. Regardless of the pattern, the vibrations are strong and as the vibrator stretches up the shaft the vibrations felt powerful inside. The ridged base that rubs the perineum during the rocking didn't receive that much in the way of vibrations but as the vibrator sites right next to the anus the vibrations travelled anyway.

It didn't take long with the vibrator on to orgasm, even without penile stimulation. It was hard not masturbating, believe me it was, but the sensation of an orgasm gained from P-Spot massage alone is mind blowing.

In a nutshell, it's a fantastic anal massager that definitely delivers results. I love it to bits.

Nexus Ridge Rider as a Female G-Spot Massager

Here's what Mrs STS had to say.

The shape of the toy lends itself really well to being used as a G–Spot massager. It’s a soft feeling vibrator with gentle curves and a perfectly shaped head to target the G-Spot. I found that using the same technique as the boys in rocking back and forth (although hunched slightly forward) offered the best stimulation of the G-Spot. It lacked on clitoral stimulation but it doesn’t claim to have any. In fact as a boy’s toy I’d be worried if it did! Overall, this is a great toy for us girls as well as you boys.
