I used to smoke hookah every day but lost my job and couldnt afford it. recently got a new job and am squared away money wise. Looking to get back into hookah and just wanted to know whats become popular in the last year in a half. What the good new gear? Best new brands flavors? Also my hose is toast. Whats the best one out right now?

Finally gonna get to use my pride and joy again lol [url="http://www.hookahcompany.com/scart/public/scart/scart.php?action=product_preview&id=3336&uid_temp=2&detailed=1"]http://www.hookahcompany.com/scart/public/scart/scart.php?action=product_preview&id=3336&uid_temp=2&detailed=1[/url]

Don't forget the advent of NuHoses, really nice if you're one of those who wants a separate hose for every flavor. They're "disposable," although they can be washed and reused over and over and over. I smoke out of my NuHoses almost exclusively now, although I do connect two of them for more length. Awesome pull. $4 or less per hose, pretty sweet.

Anyway, welcome back to hookah!

Oh, and if you're wondering, apparently the new Layalina isn't any better than the old stuff. And Starbuzz, well, it has quite a following but the majority of the old timers don't care for it. AF, Nakhla, and Tangiers are still the most popular shishas, although Romman has come out with some awesome flavors of late. John has natural coconut coals now that are all the rage, though I prefer Shishaco fingers (cheap, long burn time), Exoticas naturals still rock and you can find them cheap if you look around.

Then there's the relatively new Alien bowl, an Eric (from Tangiers) approved funnel style bowl created by HJ as a Tangiers shisha saver. Although the mini-Tangiers Phunnel still remains on most everbody's wishlist.

AF Grape is worse but now they have a Double Apple (I think it's called AF D2) that seems to be making people happy--anise freaks. They can have it.

Was the Nakhla Mizo line out before you disappeared? It's a good line of flavors.

Welcome back to hookah!
Hookah John came out with his own bowl called the Alien bowl which is a super small version of the Tangiers Phunnel bowl. But other than that not too much. Hookah-Shisha came out with a freezing hose tip for a nammor.

Woo, let's all have a smoke to celebrate!

All in all, the game hasn't changed much within the year. Vortex bowls are new and cool.

Aside from various crap brought out by HS, I think everybody covered what's new in the hookah scene.

Oh, John has KM Quad metal hookahs available, and sometime later this year, he'll be coming out with his own hookah line.

Congrats on getting back into the circle, I've always been tempted to purposely NOT smoke for an extended period of time, just to really savor the first bowl back. Hope it's as good as you expect it to be!

a decent amount of gems discovered, and even more crap. Pretty much like everything else in the world haha
