How To Ride A Dildo

Are you ready for the ride of your life? Dildo play is all about hitting the right spots, again and again, to satisfy either with a playmate (or mates), or when taking a quiet minute to yourself for some solo pleasure. Whatever the scenario, you’ll be able to find a dildo that ticks all of your boxes, especially when there are so many different shapes, styles and sizes to choose from. However, any great sexual experience requires a spot of planning, so before you close the door and reach into your toy drawer, you’ll need to know how to ride your dildo to get the most out of your new best friend. To get you on your way to orgasm, we’ve done the research for you, all the way from toe-curling techniques to the best pounding positions. You can thank us later. 

Choosing your dildo

Dildo sizes 

For those that have eyes for something on the larger side, we’d highly recommend you taking a look at our scream-worthy collection of huge dildos, guaranteed to hit your G-spot (and then some). Complete with suction cups that let you attach your artificial playmate to any surface, you can ride away to your heart's content without fear of your hands going to waste. If we’re describing your fantasy, you’ll definitely benefit from reading our guide on how to use and insert large dildos like a pro.

If you’re looking for a dildo that’s a little tamer, perhaps a realistic dildo or ejaculating dildo will be more to your liking. Of course, if you’re finding that the more you play, the more ambitious you start to feel, you can always work your way up slowly to something larger that’s guaranteed to stretch you to your limits (quite literally). Check out our guide to dildo sizes for more on this to make sure that your next erotic experience is just as safe as it is pleasurable. But remember that it’s not always about the size of the dildo, it’s about how you use it that’ll really be the difference between catastrophe and climax. 

Dildo materials 

Another factor that will affect the overall look and feel of your dildo is the material it is made out of. Silicone is a firm favourite for many, offering a smooth finish that slides perfectly into any opening. Glass on the other hand is used for some of the most aesthetically pleasing dildos out there. The best way to discover which material works best for you is simply through trial and error, and there’s no harm in collecting one of each to make sure that you’ve got a dildo to suit any mood. As long as it’s a body-safe material that’s easy to clean, you really can’t go wrong. 

Ways to ride your dildo 

Riding your dildo vaginally 

For vulva-owners who want to ride their dildo vaginally, the first step is to make sure that you’re comfortable. It may sound like an obvious one, but engaging in dildo play when you’re not in the right frame of mind could stop you from reaching climax. Place a cushion underneath your back to elevate yourself into a relaxing position, put on your secret playlist if you prefer to work your magic to music, and always stop and reposition if anything starts to feel uncomfortable. Now that you’re in the zone, make sure to use plenty of lube and insert your dildo slowly, or lower yourself down gently if you’re playing with a suction cup dildo attached to the floor. Experiment with different speeds and positions (more on thrusting techniques shortly) and see what works best for you. For double the stimulation and double the fun, you might want to use a clitoral vibrator at the same time. 

Riding your dildo anally 

Riding your dildo anally will definitely require more lube than usual, especially if this is something you’re either a beginner in or completely new to anal play. Once fully coated, slide your dildo in slowly, gradually increasing the thrusting pace and depth if you feel comfortable to do so. You might want to use anal beads and butt plugs first to get used to the sensation, but once you’ve got the position right, be prepared for one hell of a ride. Your anus is full of nerve endings, and although you may not think it, this makes it one of the most pleasurable stimulation spots (both for penis-owners and vulva-owners alike). 

Dildo thrusting techniques 

Deep thrusts 

Reach both your G-spot and your A-spot (a pleasure point that hides deep inside the vagina, between the cervix and the bladder), by using a deep thrusting technique with your dildo. Again, make sure you lube up before entering, pushing your dildo all the way in and all the way back out again in a slow and steady motion. Quicken the pace to enhance the pleasure until you’re on the brink of orgasm.

Short thrusts

Stimulate your clit and hit your G-spot all in one by using a short thrust technique, starting by either lying on your back or getting on all fours to ensure complete control of your toy. Experiment with the pace depending on your preference, using more lube if you’re in the mood to get wet ‘n wild. 

Dildo rotation 

Rotating your dildo is another way to arouse yourself, by either twisting at the entrance of your vagina and slowly thrusting in when you’re ready, or by pushing it in straight until you reach your G-spot, turning your dildo once it’s deep inside you. The best way to find the method that works best is through experimentation. Whether you choose to combine the rotation with deep or short thrusts, or maybe you’d rather apply the same technique to anal play, the choice is yours. 

Milking the p-spot 

Ever heard of the phrase ‘milking the P-spot’ before? Although this may sound rather bovine-like, it’s one surefire way to please a penis-owner. This is done by stimulating the prostate, which is a small, walnut-sized gland. When this highly sensitive area is hit, it creates an o-face worthy sensation, making for an all-round amazing sexual experience. When you’re playing with a partner, the P-spot can be reached, or milked, by using a strap-on dildo, because why shouldn’t you be in control of the pleasure? Communicate with your playmate about the motions and techniques that work best for them, keeping an eye on their reactions to any changes you make during your playtime. 

Dildo sex positions 

Double header 

For partners looking to engage in twice the fun, pair up and share a double-headed dildo. With plenty of penis to play with, you’ll be able to make sure that everyone's experience is equally pleasing. You will both need to get into a doggy-style position, but this time you’ll be going peach to peach. Place each side at both of your entrances, whether this be vaginally or anally, and push yourselves back onto the dildo as deep as you’d like. If you can take it, get some vibrators involved for even more stimulation. 

Oral sex and suction-cup dildo

Why not be the giver and the receiver at the same time with this next dildo technique? One of the many perks of a suction-cup is the hands-free opportunity it creates, so you can perform oral sex on your partner whilst lowering yourself onto your dildo. Be warned that both of you may reach climax even quicker, because what’s hotter than having someone watch you pleasure yourself? 

The teaser 

Rather than go all-in straight away, tease either yourself or your partner by gently running your dildo over your clit to really turn up the heat. Slowly push the dildo inside so it’s rubbing against the walls of your vagina, using two lubed-fingers to stimulate the clit at the same time. With all areas covered, you’re bound to reach orgasm in no time. 

Sexy spoon 

Spooning may seem more romantic than raunchy, so why not ramp up the tension by getting a dildo involved? Get both your holes filled up at once as your partner slowly slides their penis inside your vagina whilst pushing a lubed-up dildo inside your anus, or vice versa. When you can’t choose whether to experiment anally or vaginally, why not just experience both sensations at the same time? 

Now you know all of the best techniques and positions to try out, it’s time to pick your playmate. With plenty of sex toys to choose from, we have something to suit every preference.
