ApoC Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Decided to whip out my camera last night while me and my girlfriend were smoking to catch some cool smoke shots, sorry the cool spiral bloomy smoke crap at the start isnt in time to the music (it was in beat to the original music). perhaps I'll catch a clip of that by itself some time with some funky beats [url="http://www.acp-products.com/vids/smoke.wmv"]http://www.acp-products.com/vids/smoke.wmv[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shimshamsam Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 you must teach me how to blow smoke rings, ive been trying to figure that out for ages! ok a couple months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApoC Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 takes lots of practice to get it down pat, try a search on google for some specifics on different techniques. hookahs are the best way to master rings cause you have such bountiful smoke at your disposal and you can fill up your lungs and ring away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsboy Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Smoke rings are not hard to do once you get the hang of it just spend 1000's of hours practicing to make them bigger and better. Go to youtube or google videos to see many people making smoke rings ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasa Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 That smoke looks a little thin buddy, that may just be because its on film, but anyway, sweet smoke rings somebody's been practicing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yashman19 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 A common misconception that a lot of people think is key to make smoke rings is to stick your tounge out in the middle of your mouth, so that the smoke forms a ring around it when it comes out of your mouth, but this is totally not true... The tounge will actually distrupt the smoke as it leaves your mouth, and make things much harder.. THe way I teach people to blow Os, is by showing them the bottle technique. I take a 20oz plastic soda bottle, fill it with smoke, then gently sqeeze the bottle, and watch little Os fly out of it. This is exactly what you want to emulate with your mouth. Just make an opening with your mouth in the shape of an O, and gently cough, and eventually you will start to form Os. But the key is "control". You gotta get the hang of opening and closing your throat, so that only small coughs of smoke leave your throat at a time. If you dont have control, you will just get blotchy patches of smoke that come out. Keep at it, and like said above, you will get the hang of it in time.

zzzzzT Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I have noticed some brands produce better smoke for tricks than other. I seem to get the best smoke for tricks from Tangiers or a cigar. These seem to make a denser smoke? Some of the lighter brands don't seem to be able to form Os as easily. Maybe it is all in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackslife Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Very cool video. I've been able to get little smoke rings for a while, but i'll have to try the way that Yashman mentioned. I think I do basically the same thing, but not quite right, so my rings are all tiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Blowing smoke rings is one of those things that is really hard to explain. You dont use air, your not literally blowing out smoke like you would when exhaling smoke. The smoke just comes out of your mouth like a French style exhale and then your form rings with your lips and use a muscle, the same muscle that you use to swallow. Also, for me anyways, the tongue stays on the bottom of your mouth. I practiced forever and started off blowing crappy somewhat ring shaped smoke rings then i kept practicing and now I got them down pat and can do a couple tricks. If you blow one large ring at a slower speed then blow a couple smaller rings at a faster speed you can blow rings into one another. Also get your buddy to hold out a finger and see if you can shoot a ring to go around his finger. Another one is when you blow them out move your lips as your blowing them and the smoke ring will be all wavy and trippy looking. Gl bro you will get them down it just takes time.
