New Hookah

[Dranas]

Hiya, i just want some opinions. I started smokein hookahs after a friend introduced me to one, grape flavor i remember. Never smoked in my life and i was impressed with the fact it didnt burn or make me wanna cough my lungs up, and the fact it tasted like grape. So i decided i should explore this hookah stuff further. So i went on ebay and got a cheap one ( i wasnt sure i would like this so i didnt want to invest alot of money). I got my new shiney hookah and was all happy. I burnt the first batch of shisha, so i jumped on the interwebs and began learning. The next bowl smoked decently till i forgot to move the coals and it burnt again lol. After alot of trial and error i got it down and i could smoke happily for about an hour (realized i was using sub par shisha). I went to the local hookah shop, which unfortuneately closed down, and bought some really tastey shisha. It smoked great, as compared to my previous brand. So i decided i like it and have invested more money into this because i like it

So i went reading the vendor reviews on here. I saw that Social smoker and MNH was highly recomended. So i went and browsed around and found a [size=2]Orion II - Magdy Zidan - 2 Hose Hookah. Not sure if im allowed to post urls, think i read that you couldn't. I wanted a two hoser because i get tired of my wife always trying to snatch my precious hose away I got it with the red washable hoses, Washing things is a good thing. The nifty red base protector and i got the base in a frosted red too.

After chosing my new hookah, i then headed to MNH to get coals and what not. Keep in mind ive been using these god awful quicklites which i noticed dump tons of ash into my bowl, which is not cool. I was browseing and came acorss their small glass phunnel. I did research on that here at the forums and deducted it was a very nice bowl. got the glass screen too and the scalli mod. Picked up some coco nara coals and some shisha ( which i chose from a recent topic i made). Some Al Fakher vanilla and some Starbuzz X on the beach.

Did i chose wisely? i was on a 200 dollar budget so couldnt go all out for extravagance. Let me know what yall think please

That sounds like a pretty killer setup man. I've never had an MZ but everyone who does loves them. Great choice on the cocos too, they can't be beat. Post some pictures when it comes in!

Got the hookah today. Only 1 small problem and i contacted the seller today to see what they will do. On one of the hose valves there are 2 very small holes. Me being Mc Gyver and all i just put some solder over it and called it good to go for the time being. It smokes nicely, especially with the wind cover they gave me. Now I just gotta wait for the high quality shisha and bowl to come in and ill be good to go . Ill post pics as soon as i can get this cam thing to stop messing with me
