Does Anyone Find This To Be Odd?

[crisbeatz]

So I picked up a Mya bowl about 2-3 weeks ago and haven't stopped using it since and heres's why. I can pack the bowl halfway and use 1 full 3 kings (33mm) coal unbroken and just rotate it around the edge of the bowl, and get 2-4 smoke sessions out of it. Always full of flavor and never completely dry when I clean it out. I'm just about to start session #4 still with my first bowl of the Mango Neal sent out. So is this wierd or am I doing something extraordinary?

By the way, I'm using a short knock-off hookah similar to a Mya QT.


*EDIT*
I haven't read of this happening to anyone else on the Forum so I figured I should ask in case it's something I shouldn't do. Thanks. Edited March 19, 2008 by crisbeatz

sounds like 15 minutes sessions..
or you take one puff every 10 minutes.

Actually they go for at least an 45 min. and I pull every minute or so. The coal seems to last this long when it stays in one piece.

Fourth use of Wild Mango and still has flavor. Now if I use AW or AF, I can get 2 sessions out of them.

My sessions can last several hours. If you use the phunnel, even longer.

I'm hoping to get one with my next order!

so you are getting 3 hours of smoking from half a bowl (mya standard) of tobacco? thats pretty impressive.
one pull every minute? i pull every 10 seconds or so.

Yeah, I just killed the current one right now halfway through the coal.Could it be because the Tobaccy is far underneath the heat?

I've experienced that b4 with that bowl. A whole session and only half of it was dead

I think it has to be with the fact that it has way smaller holes compared to a standard clay bowl. It also isn't glazed in the inside, which probably explains a lot since the juice won't flow down the stem, but actually stays on the surface of the inside of the bowl.

I miss that bowl It broke on me the same day I bought it! Ack wtf man! hahha

I've had a few 3+ hour sessions with good flavor, and I know of a few people who can keep a bowl going for multiple uses over the course of a day or two.

under packing and excessive heat. I do it all the time. I just don't use a MYA a bowl. I use a regular clay bowl.
