The Ins and Outs of Bong Selection

Hey, ive been looking around alot at bongs recently and really want one.

I just have a few questions on whats important, and whats shity quality and such. Like i hear Glass/Glass is really good but what exactly does that mean.

Does anyone have a link for a page all about bong selection?

Also please put down your prefecrences for bong selection (Length,Material,bowl size, etc.)

Thanks

 

Get a Glass On Glass zong and you will b happy for ever

 

you want something that's glass on glass.. also 5mm is as thin as you should go.. if you're looking for a quality bong at a reasonable price.. definitely look into buying an EHLE you can find them on EDIT

 

make sure it's got a slide, not a carb. make sure it's glass not acrylic/plastic and the slide is glass too. you'll probably want something that's at least 8" tall too. a thick base with a nice grip around the shaft or whatever of the bong is nice too. anything else and you're paying extra for aesthetics. oh, and if you go to the headshop to get it, call it a "waterpipe." if you mention the word "bong" or anything illegal, they might kick you out of the store and not sell it to you.

 

^^ only in over-paranoid America

The headshop I buy my bongs in in Camden calls 'em bongs.. me and the guy even shoot the shit about different strains of weed and how different bongs smoke.

 

I have gone in a head shop and called it a bong. They sell magazines with weed in them and most of the people who work there are stoners, they don't care. Just go to a laid back one and don't go to chains like Heads of State, they suck!

 

cops are crazy harsh on head shops in my town. i remember when the 2nd one opened up 5 or so years ago, cops had cameras on the place for months.

 

im not a fan of zongs. but mos def get a glass on glass bong, my favorite bong that i ever ripped(besides my friends coil) was my 16in gog perc bong from gorillaglass.com. so i would suggest a nice glass on glass(gog) perc bong anywhere between 16-20 in and youll be happy

 

This guy knows his way around bongs

To be honest ive tried probably 50 bongs and the best ones have always been zongs

Their sturdy, offer big hits due to the shape (aka get a 16 inch instead of a 20 inch and still get more smoke) and are ussually relatively cheap compared to straight up and down "Brand name" peices...

Seriously ive never had a problem with a zong before especially if its thick glass

 

Yea I agree with the zong suggestion, i have one and it rocks
