    Every time I have a choof up with friends, we do bongs, and I never get good highs from them!! I prefer joints, and I tell them but nobody else wants to get them. Am I just not smoking the bong well? Do you guys have good advice to get a good high from them?

    I don't understand what you mean a good high? If you been a crotch lock or a soaring high - that all depends on the strain of cannabis (stativa or Indica).

    Personally, I don't do bongs - I have my own little traveling bong but tend not to use it. Passing a joint around is far better than one-lung-choke-knockout from a bong.

    I am assuming you mean you don't get as high when smoking a bong than when you smoke a joint. Once you learn how to hit the bong correctly, you will feel stupid for this thread. You can hit a bong much harder than a joint. Joints get me high, bongs usually get me ripped. You probably need to find better weed too.

    I don't get what you guys are saying. I didn't say bongs don't give you a good high, but I'm not getting it because I'm clearly not smoking it well, and I was asking for tips ... ?

    Anybody ELSE?

    hit it until the smoke touches your lips, then pull bowl/release carb

    one little trick i have for ya is pack the bowl abit tighter than you would a normal bowl........then just draw on it slowly until you want to pull the slide........i've noticed if the bowl on a bong is too loosely packed you draw in too much air and have barely any room in your lungs to clear it...........if it's packed tighter you draw alittle harder but you still have plenty of room in the lungs to clear it.........just my .02

    EDIT:: it's much harder to pack a good tight bowl with schwag.....if you use some good bud you can pack it tighter.......just sticks together better.

    fill it up with smoke, hold hand over top, breath out, suck the smoke out after releasing the carb or slide. Might make it a bit easier to get it all deep into your lungs

    That's my guess. You can separate a bong hit into 2 parts: filling the chamber and then clearing the chamber.You can also do it all at once, you just need to make sure your lungs have plenty of room to clear the chamber, otherwise you are wasting smoke.

    Yeah just learn how to circulatory breath and brew your bowls longer or if you cant get a hold on that try packing smaller bowls, as soons as it pops, pull the bowl out and reef up,

    Bongs are the bomb, but vaporizers win hands down.

    try to milk (bong rip) a small bowl

    Pack your slide full lightly, after this pack it down a bit so its like half full, then cherry it slowly, after a few seconds, start hitting it a lot harder, cashing it threw.

    Please do not do what that one guy said, to take a hit, cover the top of it, exhale then clear it. I fucking hate when noobs to that

    Bongs are great. Blunts, joints, w/e, my bong is my like my home and I keep running back to it.

    Almost all bongs give a different sort of hit too. Try a regular size bong, not one with a giant stem first. The pain you get at first from hard hits goes away permanently after a while. Till you take even bigger hits atleast. And use cold water.

    Also finish the bowl once you get used to the bong hits. Take it easy and slow, don't follow some pro person's lead especially if he's got an iron lung cause you'll embarrass yourself and get a badass boo boo.

    How are you going to call me a noob for that? Wtf. I was just trying to give, what you call a "noob" an easier way to hit the bong if the only other way possible wasn't working for him.

    I get where you are coming from, sorry if i called you a noob :p but when people dont hit a bong properly it pisses me off. When you do that, the smoke gets stale anyway so why even do it? just fucking clear it all in one hit :)

    The reason doing that is because it cools the smoke further and it allows you to take the whole hit in and hold your breath. There is no right or wrong way - only your preferred technique. However, that is the WRONG way to do it. Haa :D

    That is indeed what I do, but if the slight off-chance I don't I "quickly" hold and exhale then suck it up, so no chance for it to go stale really. =P
