Pinchers VS Tapers

Pinchers or Tapers? personally I prefer Pinchers because they're a lot more comfortable and a lot easier to get in.

What do you guys prefer???

Re: Pinchers VS Tapers

i have no idea what you mean by pinchers, could you be a bit clearer on what they are?

i guess i'll like them more, i despise tapers, it's the only way i tried once, and will never try again.

Re: Pinchers VS Tapers

yeah i've only used tapers twice and they sucked :/ I prefer the pinchers (Stretching Crescents) over that any day. I'm only at a measly 4g though :P The worst part is my gf is at 00g and I feel so wimpy compared to her lol
