Get the Package Deal !!!!

I watch for new hookah items on the major Hookah Products companies and also try to find the smaller, unheard of companies too, some in other countries.
Smoking-Hookah.com is one of the very original hookah-shisha groups to start up, they being centered in many centers in the U.S.A. , France, and the Middle of the Middle East itself.
Looking at their site I remember seeing the Package Deal and once in a while I’ll take a look again, but until today, I think I was blind to the truth there.
Simply on the page are a number of great Package Deals

How to light hookah coals with a blazing fireball of fury:

They are using a coal lighter/holder to keep the coals right next to the flame.

In retrospect, I think this lighting apparatus would have been useful for my recent experience with Coco Nara.

How To Make a Custom Hookah Wind Cover

Hookah Accessories, Hookah Videos, How To

A hookah wind cover can be useful not only for outside wind, but also for indoors, to protect your coals from freezing gusts of air conditioned air.  Air conditioning is good for people, but it tends to turn your coals into dust a lot faster than if there was no AC at all.

The following Youtube video demonstrates how to make a custom wind cover in case the store bought variety isn’t tall enough to reach over your bowl apparatus.  He uses an old coffee can as an extension for his first example, to make the cover reach higher.  In his second example, he shows how to make a taller cover entirely out of aluminum foil.  Very practical, very easy, very cheap.

A wind cover can be extremely useful for making your hookah coals burn evenly and for longer periods of time.  This is one of the best ways I know of to increase the quality of your shisha smoking experience.

How to Blow a Smoke Ring

Hookah Videos, How To, Tricks of the Trade

As an example of how to blow smoke rings, I thought I would post a video of someone who is ridiculously good at it:

I, for one, am content to blow two or three smoke rings per inhale, but don’t let me limit you.

So, how is it done?  I tell you now.

I figured out just tonight that you can blow smoke rings either with air pushed with the back of the tongue (and and “O” face) or with slight puffs from the back of your throat (also with an “O” face).

1. Tongue only method: Using your tongue, you can blow smoke rings without inhaling at all (or at least hardly at all).  Shape your tongue similar to how it would be shaped if you were gagging.  But, before you actually gag, push the back of your tongue forward along with a puff of smoke.  As you practice, you will have to experiment with what kind of an “O” face you should use to make the smoke into a ring-shape.  When you first start out, the rings will be thin and barely perceptible.  But when you get better they will get more dense, even to the point that you they look as thick and heavy as a chocolate glazed doughnut.

2. The (more common) back of throat method: Gather a thick concentration of smoke in the back of your mouth, then create a slight puff with your throat, again, similar to a gag reflex, only it lasts for about a half second.   You’ll have to experiment with your “O” face (everyone’s is different) but generally it requires a slight extension of the lips in a circular form as the smoke is pushed in a sudden burst, or puff.

It takes practice, so don’t be discouraged if you don’t get it right away.  One of the best ways to learn is to watch someone who is already good at it, looking at how they hold their tongue, through and lips.

Also, don’t forget to take a breath of regular fresh air every so often while your practicing so you don’t pass out from oxygen deprivation.  (-:
