The joints are canoeing

[The Deano]

if you want less paper just back roll and rip the excess at the gumline, you will literally use just the paper you need that way.

I smoke and drive so I need that "cig appearance" as much as possible and that means EZW ftw.

it's all about back rolling, far too much paper otherwise......well done that member.

Hey Snookie, I hear you and appreciate your concern for my health! Cigs are wicked shit. I'm sure my enjoying a rolled smoke has a very strong tie back with smoking cigs. I was thinking about that recently too.

FWIW i have an aromed and a magic flight (like them both alot.) My room is all tore up (see my thread) and I finally had to put all my expensive glass away (and I have some nice stuff.) it was inevitable that I would break something I didn't really want to break. After a few small breaks or near misses, away it all went. The aromed is a great unit but it is not appropriate in a room underconstruction...

Funny, I'm not a pencil chewer. I gave up cigs around '90 or '91 but took up cigars a couple of years after... loved cigars, perfect waste of a lot of money though, wish I had all that money back to put into my room. ah the '90s... I had cig relapses though not too many but they always brought a lot of shame and self loathing too. Usually when I felt the stress of life was too much to bear.. that is until I went back to my roots and what I was always wanting in the first place...

cigs, I hate 'em. See, self programming works. You can pretty much re-train yourself if you work at it.

and the magic secret: Never pick one up again, not one, its no longer part of who you are.

Also, keep an eye out for the bounce back which can happen after about 2-3 months of not smoking. When you think you have it mastered and its out of your system. Your out, chumming it up, having fun, someone offers, and you in your perhaps altered state, say "wtf its just one".. when you feel that happen, run Forest run. You are 1 cig away from your pack, two pack, etc... habit. I always relapsed fast if I had just one, next thing the pack would empty and your back at it.

sorry to trivalize quitting too. Every time I quit it was hard.

Kudos to all those smart enough never to put one to their lips. More on ya.

I am of the opinion that most turn away from vapeing because the 'smoke|vapors' inhaled is not hot and hard like cig smoke and therefor not fulfilling to the brain or lungs. I had a pain in my chest one day in 1982 and haven't looked back since. GL with your endeavor.

Yes! I loved 'em 40 years ago, and that hasn't changed.

Not too big, thin & basically tasteless, with the right texture to make rolling easy. Tucking the edge to start the roll is the trickiest part, and that's where Bambu's shine. Not too slick.

Clubs make nice joints, but you need to be good to make 'em work well. Going there straight from EZW is a ticket to pure frustration.

Canoeing often starts between layers of paper, & also because of uneven packing, ime. Heavy hitting doesn't help, either.

after reading all your posts, ive come to this conclusion: I need to 'grind' the bud better (I do use a grinder), be sure to 'even out' the herb in the paper to 'eliminate air pockets', be sure not to 'double up' the paper in the initial roll of the joint. does licking/wetting the entire bone prevent canoeing? idono. its been some days sine I first asked the caneing question and haven't lit one since but the weekend is coming and expect to 'fire it up' some.. I'll let y'all know. OH, still use EZW but 'will' twist one with some zigzags on hand for comparison.

I use scissors and a roller.Burns pretty even.................until some one starts bogartin and acting like they are suckin a Wendys frostie through a coffee straw.

But the more it's chopped up the better the burn.

Try using a grinder.

I always used J(diamond)B 1.0 papers.

Using a grinder but thanks.. hey Bud, I was wrong, I must suck at this.. I thought. I tried all the above mentioned remedies, even big bamboo.. they all canoed some.. here is my remedy, the baseball bat.. still EZWider DBl wide
