Virgin Loop Long and Long Hard: more than added length

RIDE JAPAN Virgin Loop Long and Virgin Loop Long Hard extend the basic Virgin Loop design in standard and firm versions. The source recommends the standard Long at 5/5 and Long Hard at approximately 4/5; these are separate assessments.

Measured weights are approximately 326g and 310g. The source summarizes the difference as about 15g; official weights are 320g and 310g. The sample measures approximately 15.5cm outside and 14cm internally. Exterior patterns and the entrance shape recall the original. Materials are named Bungee Touch and Hard Touch Air. Approximate firmness values of -1 and +2 use the reviewer's own scale, not standardized hardness.

Basic passage

Fine transverse folds combine with 4 longitudinal ribs. The layout matches the original in principle, while extra length changes texture coverage. A proposed link between elongated waist shape and greater passage load is unverified. Matching internal patterns do not establish identical feedback.

Standard Long gives clear, fine transverse texture and more substantial contact. A direct comparison found the original looser and softer, whereas Long was tighter around the entrance with stronger friction. The text rates original intensity 3/5 and Long 4/5. A later table is headed “Virgin Loop” but lists 4/5 in the Long section; it should not override the explicit original-versus-Long comparison.

Comparison with Eight Long

Eight Long is closer to the original in tightness and intensity but has 8 longitudinal ribs with more distinct edges. Extra ribs slightly reduce wall contact, and the original narrowly wins in pure fine transverse feedback. Long covers a larger contact area. The original is easier to control and accommodates shorter localized contact changes. Length is not an absolute improvement. The reviewer slightly prefers the original's softer feel while still rating Long highly.

Hard version and limitations

Long Hard strongly amplifies texture, producing coarser, more intense feedback. Added length extends the area and continuity of folded contact. High intensity is not sustained comfort, and the source explicitly rejects universal suitability. Long Hard receives recommendation about 4 and intensity 5/5; standard Long receives recommendation 5 and intensity 4. Virgin Loop Hard is a comparison for the firm version's character.

Reliable odor, oil, cleaning scores and long-term durability data are absent. Historical complaints about the brand's elaborate exterior patterns being difficult to wash and dry are not a completed cleaning test of these samples.
