Hi Motaco
Thanks for all that info, but would it not be like just using a dry Hurricane/Tsunami (which have been out for years), I own a Hurricane and it sits there gathering dust, it's not comparable to the smoothness that comes from smoking out of a multi-percolated piece, IMO. If you want to get rid of the nasties in smoke I'd buy a vape.
yes they are very similar to the hurricane from what I understand. I completely agree that they are not as smooth as a percolated water pipe but for a hand held dry pipe I find it spectacular. That is also why I don't really understand why they would make a large dry bong. Seems to defeat the purpose. Water is much better used on something that size.
I have used vapes, but I don't really care for them. The stone comes on odd for me. I mainly use a layback inline bong with a tree perc. But I'm not always in the mood to down 1/3 of a gram in one rip and three seconds. Just for puffing and slow toking during a movie or whatever I like a hand held dry pipe. The helix is the best thing I've come across hands down in that arena.
