Epoch Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 There's really no trick to getting amazing clouds. Just work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Yeah, when you have a good setup, and know your shit, then you can get good clouds. One's primary objective while smoking hookah though, should be getting good flavour from the smoke imo. What good are clouds if you can't taste the tobacco.

You know that I smoke AF primarily and all I've ever done is to try and get good flavour without burning it. The huge clouds are just there.

[/quote] We'd have to seed the clouds with delicious flavor. How? By having all the hookah smokers in the world smoke the same flavor in unison, and blow our tasty clouds skyward! A man can dream.

gramps Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 We'd have world peace, flying cars and unlimited free energy before all the hookah smokers agreed on the same flavor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santino Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 You could always just smoke epic glycerin smoke tobacco. Who cares about flavor right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyote Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Oh yeah I forgot about Shiazo! When i was at Empire the clouds were just insane. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it. I'm not sure if Robb has the video or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo21 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Yeah those steam stones definitely give big clouds especially because you're inhaling nothing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â€On Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I'll take flavor over clouds any day. I've been smoking for 5-6 years, basically the "honeymoon" period of smoking hookah has worn off for me. I mainly concern myself with having bowls last 4 or 5 hours with excellent flavor throughout, not with getting these big thunderclouds. It's easy to get big clouds, it's just not for me. But, if you want them: -Over pack -Over heat -Windcover -Lower water level than you normally would have (not by much, if you do 1/2"-3/4", do 1/4"-1/2") -Take a big drink of water (preferably not the water you just dumped out of your vase) -Hyperoxygenate yourself. Take fast, shallow breathes for about 10-20 seconds. -When you pull, focus on expanding your chest as your breathe in, and think about filling the bottom part of your lungs up Do that for a while, you'll get gigantic clouds. Make sure you video this part so everyone can see your gigantic thunder clouds and give you mad rep. Then turn off the camera and throw your bowl out because you just scorched the shit out of it.

Most people breathe incorrectly day to day, let alone smoking. If you use your diaphragm, you can fill your lungs up more and quicker. This is what Pavo is talking about when he says to breathe it into your stomach. You aren't actually breathing into the stomach, you are just contracting your diaphragm (which drops it parallel with your abdominal cavity), which makes it look like your stomach is expanding. Chest breathing is harder on the body and causes more stress on your accessory muscles (leading to things like headaches). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
