How To Ride a Dildo – Position & Tips With a Partner or Alone

Last Updated on May 1, 2024 by Kelly

You bought a dildo. Excellent. 

You may have even used your dildo, giving yourself an award-winning orgasm. 

But now you want to learn how to ride your dildo? You want to learn how to enhance your sexual pleasure, both with or without a partner.

It’s time to learn how you can maximize your dildo ride.

We’ve personally put together a step-by-step guide on how to ride your dildo and even added some additional tips and tricks along the way! 

Preparation for Riding a Dildo

Prep time is the most essential step to ensure you’ll get the most pleasure out of riding your dildo. 

There are several steps you can take to ensure you have the most orgasmic time when riding your dildo:

First things First: Choosing the Right Size Dildo

Does size really matter? 

Well, the good news is, we don’t need anyone to tell us what size best suits us because the honest answer is: it depends. 

If you’re relatively new to the dildo lifestyle, Lush Sensation recommends a more humble approach.

You honestly can’t go wrong with starting small. You should, however, pay close attention to the girth vs. length ratio. 

If you enjoy a good stretching sensation or want to feel challenged by your dildo, then we say the girthier, the better! 

But if it’s your first time, you may enjoy something between 5 to 7 inches in length and a smaller circumference. 

Either way, size absolutely can matter. So try experimenting with different sizes to choose what’s comfortable for you!


Supplies and Materials Needed

The more lube, the better! But why is lube so important? To start, it decreases irritation and chafing when riding your dildo.

It also turns everything into an encouraging slip-and-slide! 

Sure, women can use their natural lubrication, but not every woman gets wet enough to feel comfortable when using a dildo. 

Why not make it easier on yourselves and take some lube along for the ride?


Condoms

But I can’t get pregnant with a dildo!” Well, no, you can’t. However, safety should always be a top priority when using sex toys. 

Condoms make for an easy cleanup, can help avoid smells when it comes to anal penetration, and, of course, they’re best for STI prevention.


A Nice Towel

Like condoms, towels are great for clean-up after a good riding session with plenty of lube!

Create the Ambiance

Whether you’re riding solo or with a partner, setting the mood is critical!

Not only will it relax your body and make you ready to ride your dildo, but it also adds a layer of excitement to your sexy time!

To create a good ambiance, you can:


  • Put on a sexy outfit: Sure, you may take it off eventually, but it’s a great way to put you in a sexy mindset!
  • Dim the lights: Mood lighting is a must. Also, there’s no harm in lighting a candle!
  • Watch some porn beforehand: If you’re not quite in the mood yet and need a little push to get your body tingling, put on your favorite porn video to get those juices flowing! 

Choose the Right Material

Okay. So you know what size you want, you know the supplies you need, but how do you decide which dildo is right for you? Especially when it comes to riding your dildo? 

There are hundreds of options online to choose from, and the following materials are considered best when purchasing your dildo:


  • Stainless Steel: So sleek and easy to clean! You’ll feel rich just holding it.
  • Silicone: While materials made with silicone tend to be more expensive, silicone is a reliable material and not made with any dangerous chemicals.
  • Borosilicate glass: Easy to clean and non-toxic!

When in doubt, make sure you purchase a non-porous sex toy. Non-porous sex toys tend to be smoother, have a water-resistant surface, and are easiest to clean. 

Porous dildos are notoriously difficult to sanitize and will harbor bacteria, so it’s best to avoid those bad boys altogether.


Cleaning and Sanitizing Your Dildo

Each dildo is different, and some may need to be cleaned more thoroughly than others. Always refer to the instructions for reference on how to clean, sanitize, and store your dildo. 

Make sure you clean your dildo both before and after every use with warm, soapy water! 


Choosing the Right Lubricant

Flavorless or not, it is recommended to use a water-based lubricant with sex toys. Water-based lube will not interfere with any material your dildo is made with. 

They’re also the best solution if you have a vagina, as they won’t cause irritation or itchiness. 

Alright, now that we know how to pick our dildo and really set the mood, let’s get into the different types of dildos:


Best Types of Dildos to Choose From


Regular or Curved Dildos

Much like when picking a size for riding your dildo, it’s best to think about what you’ve enjoyed with past or present sexual partners when choosing the right dildo shape for you.

Regular dildos are easier to ride, but only in certain positions. However, a curved dildo is often used to hit the G-spot and prostate. 

The G-spot is located only a few inches inside the vagina, and having a curved dildo can help you hit those juicy sports every time you’re using your dildo. 


Suction Cup or Mountable Dildos

Suction cups and mountable dildos each have their advantages, and purchasing one or the other can depend on how and where you want to ride your dildo. 

One of the main benefits of suction cup dildos is the ability to place them anywhere with a stable surface. Put them on your wall, bathtub, or floor, and ride all day hands-free. 

This variety allows you to try different positions, with or without a partner. The opportunities are endless.

Sex mounts also allow for hands-free fun and grant better control of your position. 

They’re also great when you need extra leverage with your toy! 

Tight hips? No problem. Sex mounts can also lead to stronger orgasms, as the sturdiness is beneficial for dildos that require a certain angle or depth. 

Just make sure it’s compatible with your dildo!


Sex Machines

Sex machines have some incredible benefits. The benefits include having a motorized dildo similar to a vibrator that sensually moves in and out of you on its own. 

They also come with a control dial to change the tempo and intensity of their movements.


Sex Doll Torso

Sex Doll torsos are fantastic for both solo play and with a partner. They offer realistic body parts that are great for sexual fantasies, such as genitalia, breasts, and nipples.

They are also significantly more straightforward to clean than full-size sex dolls, and some even offer removable sleeves, which is beneficial for cleanup. 


Getting Comfortable With Your Position and Style


Now, let’s look at some positions to try to enjoy your experience.

How to Ride a Suction Cup Dildo:

First, find a flat but comfortable surface. The last thing you want is to feel uncomfortable when using your dildo. 

Chair Champ!

Ah, the tried and true chair. Say that three times fast. 

Find yourself a chair made out of wood or plastic, and stick your suction cup dildo in the middle of your seat. 

Then, either sit yourself down or straddle the chair backward for leverage. From there, all you have to do is bounce!

Doggy 

We’ve all seen Doggy before. She’s a classic! 

Stick the suction of your dildo onto a wall either near your bed or close to the floor (maybe bring a pillow down to protect your knees). 

Face away from your dildo, and ride your dildo back and forth, in and out. 

This position is great for partner play as well, as you can pleasure your partner as they stand right in front of you while you pleasure yourself from behind!


Bath Time Bliss

There are a few ways you can ride your dildo in the tub. You can either:

  • Stick your dildo to the bottom of the tub with one knee on either side.
  • Attach it to one of the walls of the tub so you can lie down and thrust.
  • Or, if you have a wide-rimmed tub, you can place your suction cup dildo on the edge and straddle it with one leg on either side. Then bounce!

How to Ride a Dildo Mount

First, grab your dildo. Next, place your dildo on top of your comfy mount. 

All you have to do now is get comfortable! 

Place yourself in a seated or kneeling position, angle your dildo in a satisfying position, and go to town! 

Enjoy yourself. 


How to Ride a Sex Machine

While they have a lot of moving parts, sex machines are super simple to use! 

First, place your dildo on the spring attached to your sex machine, put some lube on that bad boy, and then straddle away. 

Lower your hips until you’ve reached a pleasurable penetration level, and feel all the sensations while riding your dildo with some extra oomph!


How to Ride a Sex Doll Torso

Get your sex doll torso into the correct position, preferably on a bed or with a blanket underneath.

Much like the sex machine, sex doll torsos are incredibly user-friendly. They’re convenient and enjoyable to straddle right on top of. 

After that, slather that artificial cock with your favorite water-based lube, position the dildo against your private parts, and it should slide into you effortlessly, both vaginally and anal. 


Best Positions to Ride a Dildo

This is my favorite question! There are so many positions to choose from, and you can try them all to keep things exciting!


Solo

  • Missionary: Missionary is a classic position; don’t listen to the haters who say it’s boring. It’s here for a reason! Just put a pillow under your pelvis for deeper penetration.
  • Doggy Style: This position may be difficult without a suction cup dildo, but you can also get into this position while resting your chest on a bed or pillow for leverage. 
  • Squatting Cowgirl and Chair Cowgirl: Another great one for a suction cup dildo: place your dildo on the floor or in a chair, face away from it, and go to town!

With a Partner

  • Pound Town: Yet another great one for a suction cup dildo! In this position, your partner is pounding you away, doggy style, while you suck off your dildo that should be eye-level right in front of you. This is a great Kickstarter if you and your partner are eventually interested in trying a threesome! 
  • Double Trouble: This position is for the double-headed dildo and is excellent for same-sex couples. While riding your double-headed dildo, you and your partner face away from each other and synchronize your hip movements together to take things to the next level. A beautiful bonding moment!

Dildo Riding During Oral Sex

The Ride and Blow: In this position, you’re riding your dildo somewhere close to the floor or a bed while your partner is standing over you.

As you ride, you can suck your partner off. The logistics may not sound super romantic, but you can move nice and slow with this one.


Double Penetration Riding with a Dildo

Warning: once you try this position, you may never want to go back to single penetration with your dildo. 

First, get yourself nice and comfy either in missionary or doggy style or any position that will give you easy access to both holes. 

Remember to use plenty of lube for this position, especially when accessing your back door. And most importantly, enjoy yourself!
