stronger smoking technique


Recommended Posts

Was smoking argile with my friends, were drinking too so the normal strength of smoke couldn't be felt.

So what we did was:
1. set up argile with you favorite shisha
2. unscrew the blow out valve
3. remove ball bearing
4. light a ciggarate
5. squeeze the filter and stuff it in the blow out valve
6. smoke like normal, but don't blow.

Yeah, I want my crack pipe to hit with my hookah to. But on a serious note why are yall knocking him for his creation if you havn't tried it? I mean not everybody likes ciggs but some do so I don't think it's a bad idea.

even if i liked ciggs id rather smoke a cigg while smoking hookah. at least then you would still be smoking one thing that tasted good.


it would be like going to a nice restaurant and ordering an expensive bottle of wine. "waiter this wine isnt strong enough could you pour some everclear in it?"

Ok I agree but why knock his idea if you don't really know what its like? I can't say good nor bad things about it simply because I havn't tried it. It's kind of like writting a review for a shisha you've never smoked yourself.

hey guyz, i didnt mean to offend those "passionate" argile smokers out there, its just an idea. I like to smoke the traditional way too for its flavor.

BUT if you ever need something stronger and don't have happen to have, tangiers, tombak or something else, AND happen to have a ciggy with you, there you have it. thx skimo ;-)

Hey guys, there was a time when phunnel bowls were thought to be absurd...which they still are, really. Not the point. Stick to the point, will you? Yes. I will. Maybe he has a suggestion that will inspire someone else...I reinvented hookah bowls and some flavors through the inspiration of others. Sariel said he wanted something that tasted like clove cigarettes. So, clove is on the way. Whether we like his idea or not, at least give him credit for having an original idea. Thats what I think. Without guys like him, we wouldn't even have purge valves. What do you need a purge valve for? Maybe it was designed as a cigarette port. OK, navynmr, it wasn't a cigarette port. Keep coming up with ideas, though!

Edit: Intriguing idea...really. Why couldn't we just add a straight filter to thin out smoke? How come we couldn't daisy chain single hose hookahs? Connecting one inlet port to another to "Share" the other guy's flavor. Make t-connectors and connect them in a circle!

Due to popular demand by Skimo, here is my retarded idea.

[url="http://www.bestwhip.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=17"]http://www.bestwhip.com/index.php?main_pag...&products_id=17[/url] Use that thing to spray the N2O (laughing gas) that site also sells into the blowout valve while you take a hit, super buzz hits! 8)

I also dont think the cigarette thing would be THAT bad if you were smoking mint shisha with a menthol smoke in the valve.

Feel free to laugh all you want at me, I know my ideas are ridiculous :D

For recreational use, nitrous isnt too bad(especially compared to other things you could use instead). Just limit yourself to 1 hit of nitrous per minute or so. Even though you wont feel the effect constantly, your brain will have plenty of oxygen from the breaths in between. You can compare it to breathing helium from balloons to make your voice squeaky, one lungfull wont ravage your brain. But if you do it breath after breath you wont get enough oxygen.

With that said, I have some second thoughts about blowin the stuff through your hookah. N2O is also used in cars to boost horsepower by providing more oxygen to mix with the fuel. I don't know if the gas itself is flammable or not, so playing with it around hot hookah coals may not be such a great idea. If anyone knows more about it, feel free to clarify my confusion.

And for the record, I never plan on doing the whole nitrous through your hookah thing, it was just a silly idea I got from whoever was joking about hooking a crack pipe up to the bowout valve. But maybe one day when I've been drinking, and I have some mint shisha, I might just try a menthol in the valve for shits n giggles, cause thats how I roll :wink:

n2o is not flammable, however it speeds up oxidation (burning) because n2o is much richer in oxygen than air. I would think it could rise up and ignite your shisha (or at least make the coal glow REALLY red).

I don't think that hitting a shot of nitrous with the smoke throught the purge valve would work enough to get you feeling exceptionally awesome.... but I tend to have a higher tolerence so you would have to check on a person to person basis. But this is an interesting idea for one reason... whippits coming out can get REALLLLY friggin cold... esp. depending on the brand of charger that you get and how many chargers have been used in a row... this could actually cool the smoke really good...

Ahhh, laughing gas. Dentist thought I was a trip on it.

But anyway, back on topic of the original post by navy, I can't figure out the problem. First, he said they had been drinking. Everyone (who smokes) knows that your addiction level skyrockets while drinking. What about music? When one drinks ( a little too much) we need music louder. Our hearing doesn't seem as sensitive. So, would he be out of line and untraditional to turn up the volume? Gee, how many nights have I sat there sh!t-faced listening to Tull ( a Tullathon) all night? Same principle as what he did. Instead of pumping up the music, he just pumped up the nicotine.
