ghunfrytimma Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Hey guys...so i was wondering.....has anyone tried/does/likes/ taking draws from their hookahs without the hose? im talking about taking hits from where the hose normally conects into the stem.....my friends and i who are pretty frequent smokers have been doing this as long as i can remember and we all seem to enjoy this method alot better than actually using the hosas...now dont get me wrong theres nothin wrong with hoses and thats the way hookah was meant to be smoked and we still mostly use hoses but occasionally as the hose works its way around the circle some guys choose to pull it out and take a draw straight from the stem. We tend to get a thicker smoke from this method as well as more flavor and a nicer buzz IMO.....i hope im not bringing up an old/dead topic...i tried looking this up on the search engine before posting but found no result...although im sure mush will prove me wrong (he always comes up with something ) so if u guys have tried this what are your thoughts and opinions on it? and if u havent tried it mayb ud give it a shot during ur next session?

HookahCaterpillar Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Ive had a few buddies do that and they say they get alot of smoke.Its defenitely not for me though i like to sit back and relax with a hookah hose in my hand. Not lean down and hit directly from the hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrandPuba Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Me and my friends have also tried this when we were just joking around. I think you get a lot thicker smoke and more of a buzz, but I also think it makes the smoke way too harsh. We dont do it very much because we would rather hang out, talk, and relax. But I deffinetly know what you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Hmm..I just can't see me and my friends all crouching infront of the hookah, taking turns making out with it. I mean I know it will work, but I like to just stick to the basics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 At the lounge, I actually do that to insure the pipe is drawing well, minus the hose. Enjoy it? Well, I think of it more like taking a crap on a toilet that has no seat, it really doesn't make that big of a difference, but its more comfortable to have one. Sometimes, we remove the removable head pieces from the leathr hoses and take a "hose hit" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR Bubble Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 AAAAHHHH! Someone say nose-hits? Where? where? You sick pup. MR Bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghunfrytimma Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 so are u saying u enjoy nose hits from time to time bubble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR Bubble Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Well... Um.. Okay, I admit it. I've been nose hitting for a long time. Sometimes I think if I didn't do them in my reviews, someone out there would be disappointed. As far as your direct hits go, All I want to say is, "I understand." I'll just leave it to your imagination as to what I mean MR Bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghunfrytimma Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 ahhh i see....speaking of ur reviews...when can we expect a some new ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzing Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 well, when you take a crap without a toilet seat, there's a very real possibility if it's a wide bowl of getting some hairs wet, if you know what i mean. and man, there's no more chillingly horrifying feeling than that. period. a hoseless hookah pales in comparison to that which you state is merely 'less comfortable' [so what, i'm putting words in your mouth ]oh yeah, and mr bubble, thanks to you every time i smoke a hookah i ALWAYS take a nose hit to see what flavor there REALLY is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmexx Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 This is all very disturbing. This dirty Arab guy at this old hookah lounge I used to go to used to start them up like that. This topic reminded me of some bad hookah sessions... I'm gonna go hide now.Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR Bubble Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Like Tangiers, I used to use the leather hoses with detachable cobra heads (or tips as most refer to them) and we would pull them off to take a few more solid hits when the smoke got weak. Talk about a shotgun blast to the innards. Especially with Nakhla XX Apple or Lemon. MR Bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzing Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 haha, nakhla XX apple... now that's a term i must remember :)do the x's signify the potency, or what your eyes look like when you're done smoking it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
