jmexx Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Sorry guys, had to do this! The subject line works for me! hahaha so those who send me PMs, don't fret, no email address needed .To keep this hookah related, I just smoked some Al Amir pina colada mixed with some Nahkla mint all put into a pear bowl (the actual fruit) and smoked for 3 hours between me and my buddy. Sometimes I wonder where I find the time to smoke that much, other times I wonder how Al Amir is so juicy and lasts forever! Just thought I'd throw that in in my FIRST ever post! Feel free to comment on my flavour mixing/bowl making. ALSO please tell me what kind of fruits or other things have you used to make your bowl for your ma'assel. I always like trying new things so this should give me some creative ideas! Thanks and happy smoking Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uselessdreamer1 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 ive heard of using apples, and ive seen pinapples and watermealons used online. Maybe you could post pictures? id like to see the pear bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmexx Posted September 9, 2005 Author Share Posted September 9, 2005 Yeah, for sure! I'm probably going to be doing it again on saturday, I've got a busy day tomorrow! It doesn't give a peary taste, but just gives a more fresh and flavourful shisha. Obviously if you replace the clay with a fruit, it will be more fresh. Also, because the fruit is refrigerated, it tends to be a little more cold which in essence helps with the thickness of the smoke. That's a lot of thinking for hookah smoking, but I'm always looking for positives!Happy smoking!Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 This topic has been brought up 2 times that I can think of, and each thread I posted my picture of my buddies and myself using an orange bowl. But I guess you wern't around for those threads so here ya go. [url="http://imageshack.us"][img]http://img356.imageshack.us/img356/5225/fruitbowl25mb.jpg[/img][/url] As you can see, we just carved out a bit of orange, packed it with ma'assel, laid foil on top and secured it with push-pins. And from my limited experience with this, using fruit pretty much just blends an extra flavor with the flavor of ma'assel you're using. Nothing really more. We didn't really notice any more smoke than normal, and our orange was striaght outta the fridge also. I saw a picture not to long ago from a lounge where they had a watermelon bowl...Now thats f**king huge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yashman19 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Yeah, thats the watermelon one I was talking about. Hey....did you guys really look at that watermelon pic, and notice that the tubs of ma'assel behind the hookah are labeled with "wtf"... What the f**k is up with that? Just a weird observation, sorry.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmexx Posted September 9, 2005 Author Share Posted September 9, 2005 Haha, that's crazy retarded! If a lot was gutted out of the watermelon, which only makes sense, that must of taken a huge amount of ma'assel! Who needs a party bowl when you got watermelon ;-)Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counter_Culture Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 haha yea i posted that picture..thats at the lounge that i go to, they use party bowls and fruit bowls...haha they dont worry about maassell very mmuch cuz they have a person make it for them...they sell em individually at a store near by. ITS AMAZING! they have a LOT of flavors like blueberry, watermelon, and many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counter_Culture Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 haha i really question why they labeled it WTF..haha its prolly all the same as the one on the very top..haha ..well the charcoals that they use there are pretty big...there's a lady that works there that just keeps walking around with a charcoal holder always giving u more charcoal...and i think that watermelon bowl had to have about 2.5 rolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzing Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 ooh off topic, but yash, i complement your computer case... i have the same one (but my power supply is way beefier ;p) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavlakos_politakos Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 thats feaking CRAZY!!!!! im gunna try that tonight.does the fruit bowl change the flavor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH4OS Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 yes, it does! some time ago i tried apple shisha with an apple bowl. it made the taste more intense and was amazing. i'll do this again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 People, people...there are people starving in the world, we are so blessed and fortunate to have enough food, even more fortunate to have a computer and a hookah and then...we are going to waste perfectly good fruit to do what?...put tobacco in? Really insensitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzing Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 well, not to come off as insensitive, but...you CAN'T be serious.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Only two-thirds of the way serious. I like to keep things in context. To me, it seems like a waste of fruit, if companies made flavors that actually worked well, we wouldn't have to waste fruit to make them better.

ahc87 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 not that i support hunger, but eating the fruit would do no more for the situation than smoking out of it... i mean you are still paying for it (supporting the market for fresh and yummy produce) what difference does it make?

Sonthert Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Take that piece of fruit and drop down into the middle of famine central in Africa and tell me what difference it makes, look at starving human and tell them what you want to do with it. I know, rationally, it doesn't make a difference, I'm just being emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmexx Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 Sorry to make you emotional, Tang. I didn't even know this thread was still alive.Everyone has different tastes, most tobacco companies work to satisfy the general smoker. I'd like to think that we're NOT general smokers but a little special. We always like to try different things and maybe taste different things.That's exactly what using a fruit does. It gives us a different taste from the ma'assel. Give it a shot, maybe you'll like it ;)Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 All sorts of lounges do it here in San Diego...Charge up the butt, too. Sinbad charges like $50 for a watermelon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
