Help A New Hookah Smoker Out, Pipe Purchase...


Recommended Posts

wow, thanks for such a thoughtful response!

you know, I definately considered the importance of using only one hose and how that maintains the social feeling. With this new 3 hose hookah my roomates got, we quickly saw that having to hold your thumb over the hoses is a little obnoxious.

The one that you linked to... what makes that so successful for smoke volume? It's tall, apparently has a well shaped base, and is only a 1 hose. Is that why? If I was to look around for other designs that might look better to me, would I be alright as long as I stayed with similar looking dimensions?

OK, I will definately be looking at the Social Smoke ones. I think I'd probably just get the Polaris II (2 hose) instead of the 3hose though.

Anybody know the diameter of the polaris stem? I might buy the Mist base just by itself and test it out if it fits, because the Polaris stem is probably longer than the one supplied with the Mist hookah. If only the stem went farther into the Mist base, I bet it would hit better...

Also, do those covers on the hoses come off if I wanted to put them on a set of Mya hoses? I think they look pretty cool and they probably insulate the hoses a little bit.

yea they do. And i dont know if it would fit, but you could of course cut the stem a bit biggrin.gif And i think from now on the SS hookahs are coming with Mya hoses. My last one did, but might have just been my lucky butt tongue.gif

well i just ordered everything tongue.gif

my thinking on buying the mist base was that the Mist hookah was only 30". This Polaris is 36". The mist base is 11" deep so I would think that it may be able to fit. The large stainless steel stem on the Polaris was shown as being about 8" long. sooooo it'll be interesting to see what happens. If it doesn't fit, I'll try to return it maybe, who knows. It's only 30 bucks.
