Caramellanne Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Because it doesnt have...hmmm what am I trying to say here...it doesnt have those little ball bearrings so when other people are not smoking, you dont have a closed, air tight compartment and thus you are pulling air from their hoses and not thick, concentrated smoke...So, they have to plug their hoses for it to work...Mine is the same way...They also make these things called flip caps that attach to the tip of your hose and you can just flip it over and plug the hose and walk away...its neat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whodat1004 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Its a matter of making a good seal. When the hoses are all unblocked, instead of air being pulled through the bowl it comes from the open hoses. Block them all off, have someone put their finger over the hole or find some other way to plug it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whodat1004 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 It took me a few minutes to organize my thoughts and type it. We were probably typing simultaneously but you just finished faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Its called auto seal lol, and yeah you just need to buy plugs for when somebody isn't smoking with you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 yep plug the holes. I personally use corks as they are free with my wine cooking bottles. just cut them to a sharper point and stick them in the 2 extra ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyGuy Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Yeah, if you get them into the swing, it becomes second nature to take a hit and just cover the hole with your thumb other wise... maybe take a hit at the same time depending on how big your hookah is.

Whodat1004 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Yeah it really does become second nature. Theres been times when my buddies and I are about to pass out but we still have the hose plugged! You will get used to it, it's really not a problem.
