Another purpose for a two piece is the ability to see your landing better.

I don't have a problem with that, I apply my paste skin side first, aim the end over the crotch, then aim the wafer hole bottom first and then center it before pressing it on. Pretty easy.

I've got another 6 day bag on, this is absolutely fantastic 😁

I've made another improvement, cutting the 1/3 extra large barrier strip around the belly button in the left belly button fold so it doesn't grab the sensitive scar tissue. It gets covered by a full barrier strip later.

I have to put a spare barrier strip in that left belly fold because it likes to grow mold in there and itch, then I lose barrier adhesive. I also cut the spare piece in half and stick it in the belly button hole itself so it doesn't sweat in there neither.

Little by little I address all the little pains and issues so I finally have some peace with this thing. 😂

This new method by far has been the best ever!

I feel almost nothing, no nagging little pains or irritation. I feel ready to try out a pool now. 😁

To review check out the first post on this thread as I update it.
