The Rooster Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I'm looking for super flexible hoses that don't have long connectors are aren't heavy. I would prefer washable. I started making hookahs as a hobby and I need hoses that won't cause problems with possibly tipping over the hookah. Any help or ideas is always welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 nuhose and fancy hoses.. The plastic guys. I use them exclusively. lol Kind of awkward when people smoke tho: "hey, i love your eggerman/double wheat combo.... wait.. whats with this hose?" lol they don't really have the nice looks you get from other hoses, but they're super light, and have a wide open draw and are fully washable. they pretty much last forever as long as you dont step on the tips lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehelios Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I'm not specifically promoting hookah-shisha but they were the first vendor to show up in both my google results. https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-10011-NuHose-Washable-Hookah-Hose.html https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-11006-fancy-hookah-hoses.html They look like crap compared to normal or deluxe hookah hoses but they are one of my favorites due to ease of cleaning, packing up, and pressure.

The Rooster Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 Oh those.... I have used those, they don't make a full seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawhee Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Besides, if a hose is not sealing right you can always use sports tape instead of rubber gaskets to make sure the seal is tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 They definitely seal to the hose port on the hookah. Unless you mean where the tips connect to the hose? Then no, they don't make a full seal, but it really doesn't make a difference. I still get MASSIVE clouds, but as Luka said, you can still use tape on those parts too (also this is a good way to label hoses for specific flavors or make the color scheme unique) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are okbas a quick hose but I would never use them as my main or a travel hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Those are the only ones that I can think of that are lightweight at the hose port and are flexible.. Maybe a Tonic washable? https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-9222-tonic-washable-hookah-hose.html I had one of these, it wasn't bad at all, either https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-9221-tonic-long-handle-washable-hookah-hose.html I always thought htese were cool, and if i remember they're pretty lightweight? https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-12404-fretted-nammor-hookah-hose.html and the regular washable KM hoses are pretty rad too, I think mine took a while to get flexible though, but after it was broken in lasted me a loong time https://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-10511-khalil-mamoon-washable-glitter-hookah-hose.html that should get you started I suppose. They're all washable too, so no worries there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 shit.. now I want to buy myself a few new hoses lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 I'm friends with a manager at a hookah bar here in Indy called lava. I showed him the hookahs I made and I told him I'm having trouble finding a light with Weight and really flexible hose.... He handed me this hose and told me to keep it..... It works perfectly, great draw and all washable. Looks like the same tubing of your tonic hoses you posted. This one is an aluminum tip and handle.

mustang67n Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 yeah, that tubing looks just like the tonics! Awesome, it's always nice to know people. Great score man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. As with other hoses, they have a few varieties: http://www.5starhookah.com/Thunder-Clear-Hose-TUNCH.htm http://www.5starhookah.com/Thunder-Dark-Hose-TNDH.htm http://www.5starhookah.com/Thunder-Fit-Hose-TNDFT.htm http://www.5starhookah.com/Thunder-Mid-Hose-TMDH.htm http://www.5starhookah.com/Thunder-Pro-Hose-THPRH.htm I have only used the Thunder Clear, but it is definitely up there in my top 5 hoses of all time. I would like to try out a Thunder Pro as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 They cost so much, that's crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â€On Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 If cost is a solid factor in your hose purchasing, just get nu-hose/fancy hoses like previously mentioned by others. I've been using my thunder hose pretty much daily for like 4 months and it's still going strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
