Hobocans Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Smoking some shisha yesterday and we all started talking about hoses. Here using a cloisonne MYA hose on the Hobo, which is a pretty good setup, and also have the Nammor on a Mya pipe, which is an excellent hose, but we started thinking, what would the best hose be like?Some ideas:- Thick like the Nammor- At least 72" (like the Cloisonne, the Nammor is longer though)- Built in ball bearing system for double/tripple setups that has an off switch for clearing the chamber (not sure how that would work...probably doable though) - Maybe a flame retardant material in case a stray piece of coal somehow lands on the hose (I've had this happen before).Any other ideas? All hoses are functionally pretty similar, but I think there can be something with a few more bells and whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COMPLETELY washable. No glue to deteriorate. No loose removable parts - but it all comes apart if you put some elbow grease into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang_steve Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Once I get some hose covers on my hose (Mya with tubing mod) I'll have the perfect hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplepotatoe Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I think the ball bearing system for auto-sealing sounds like a good idea actually. Just think purging would be not doable as the ball bearing needs to be free moving or its not going to be auto seal anyway. Could be done pretty easily, just create an area inside the hose tip that has a lip that doesnt allow the bearing to move up the hose at all.

[LB] Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 extra long Mya inner tubing, threaded head you can screw off (babu bakr of course) with a velvet leopard pattern hose cover. Golden tassels dangling from the head that tickle your hand when you take a hit. I've given this one some serious thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjako Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Narbish without the glue problems, or the diameter problems for inserting it into the hose port...it screws up the fucking threads on the hose. 2 weeks its a mess.Washable doesn't really matter, since I really never wash mine, and when they get bad enough to where they are ghosting..washing doesn't help. Just the fact that it won't rot on the inside would be nice however.I want a 8 feet long hose. I would pay 30-45 bucks for a very high quality nice hose which doesn't require surgery one week after purchase (glue, duct tape, electrical tape like Nammors and Narbishes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ih303 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I'd say washable for sure. I dig the long handles but like it shorter where it plugs into the hookah - more like the Razan than the Narbish. I don't really care for the sweatbands or the patterns cut into the hose tip. I really dig the handles on the hoses that come with the KM Pears. The multi-color thread looks real sharp. I'd like for it to be put together with no glue.Man, all this thinking is making me want to go build my own hose. If only I had a lathe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsNhookah Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 At least 100 inches long, including handle. Dime sized diameter tubing. Have to go with plastic tubing, something very washable and durable; wrapped in leather. Black. Fully glass handle with non-removable tip; clear. End tip would be removable for easier cleaning.
