Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

How about something like pick an ELB? Choose right win a prize choose wrong you still get a nice rip from a great device!! It's win-win!!

Stu's idea will be tough to top!! +1 for Monkey dunk tank

Most impressive hydratube/devistator hit (BYO)?

Finalists compete just before the end of the show to win a Cloud with bystander votes!

Must beat SlightlyMedicated...

(and a monkey dunk tank)

How about if someone can take a bigger rip than SliM without coughing, they win. Sounds like a good(long) weekend for Slim.

@koop - send us an email support@vapexhale.com with your name, we can help track it down for you.

On another note, we are preparing to get ready for the Denver Cannabis Cup. While we have

historically done well at these events, one thing the other vendors do much better than us are the various games that they hold throughout the day where they hand out prizes. There are the standard raffles where they give something away but we wanted to do something better. I was curious if any of the forum members have any great ideas for contests and/or games that we can run in our booth.

Who can vape the largest quantity of cannabis in a single hit ... (they have to beat--or at least compete with--SliM to win )

Edit: ok ... should have read the last few posts before responding ... seems like my idea is hardly original although you do seem to have forum consensus!

how about guess the number of elb caps in a jar.

Further mindless philosophy regarding the game . . .

Assuming the goal here, besides unit sales, is to win the cup and make VapeXhale stand out from all the other booths, I think "name that strain/flavor" might really work. Think about the average mooch that comes by the booth. They want to collect their free hit and in the process they are gonna hear a lot of stuff, maybe get a real feature/function/benefit presentation in the process. So the mooches are high, wanting their free hit, and probably ready to screen out half of what you say, and the other half, will they even remember it come days end?

Thats why I think a focused, sensory, message might work. We have to engage the mooch in a way that stands out from everyone else so its memorable. The game does this by painlessly educating the client and focuses their mind on one sensory aspect of the product. Focus is important because showing too many product aspects quickly can confuse things and fog the lasting impression we want to make. Its my theory that by linking the sensory perception, with the game as a learning tool and prizes as incentive, we can give folks an experience that will stand out at the end of the day compared to the "noise" of all the other vendors. I would adopt a multiple guess format with prizes being scaled for the amount of $$$ you want to invest. Everyone wins because they get a free hit, maybe a wrist band, but if they guess the right answer then you can bump them up to a t-shirt and enter them into a drawing for a Cloud.

It Sounds Fun and its a great idea. I won a gram of hash in such a contest at Elemental Wellness in SJC last 4/20. It was great fun and not that hard....

Have to say though. Not much moochin goin on at the cup. Everyone is giving away free dabs and bong hits and sharing all there dank. Its a lot of fun.

Hope to see VapeXhale at the 13 SF Cup at the Craneway paviliion again this year. June 23 and 24th I believe.

"Adam and Manny" from the potcast had a Y tube on a giant "dumpster" nail that fed two water wipes with contestants on each side, each trying to take a bigger hit. The prize, don't think their was one but people were doin it all day as well.

Sorry . . . "mooch" was slang for "customer" when I was working. I shouldn't have used technical jargon in my analysis, my bad . . .

Blind fold the contestant - while not looking they have to guess which HT they are drawing from. If they can guess 3 consecutive loads they win their choice of an HT.

Based on chug, flavor, and feel of the pull they should be able to do it.

I fear the biggest hit, longest hit, contests may cause someone to have health issues trying to out beat someone else. But someone had mentioned other companies do it, so not sure. I just would hate to see on the news that someone passed out trying to hold a hit in longer then they should have (if it's even possible LOL), and then we are on our way back to MJ is evil and the people that use it are evil!

Anyway, I'm probably just digging too deep. Hence why I thought of the guess the strain game :-).

I also love mvapes game. That sounds great as well.

Thank you for the suggestions so far!

Newvapor is right we do need to stay away from contests that involve long draws for health concerns. At the LA cup some booths that were having "dab" contests were causing people to collapse due to the extreme heat. These events usually have very little shade and people are not prioritizing hydration.

Keep the suggestions coming, and stay tuned as we have a lot of fun announcements coming up surrounding the 1st ever US Cannabis Cup!

Are any FC members going to be at the Cup?

Who can blow the biggest vapour ring? Or shoot their ring the furthest? People aren't used to the idea that vapour can be thick enough to blow rings like smoke, so this demonstration forces them to reconsider vaping as a viable alternative to combustion. Would potentially provide some great promo vids, too. Slo-mo giant Cloud rings.

You could rank them by audience reaction using a handheld dB meter. Audience participation draws people to the booth, wondering what the periodic clapping is for...

I got it - rather than vape the weed - how about who could pack the most ELB's in under a minute? I have such a great method - I use an 18 mm water attachement (elbow) from Arizer which an ELB fits perfectly - I attach about a foot and a half of 7th floor whip tube and I gently suck on the empty side and vacuum up my ground goodies from my Pollen Box! I fill an ELB in about 5 seconds perfectly every time! You could even set the contest up where you have a cloud ready to go, a hydra-tube off to the side and some herb. Who ever grinds, packs the elb, loads the cloud, and gets the HT on a ready to hit first wins!

throw the cloud furthest? juggle the most hydratubes?

I would bet this would just cause broken clouds. Then people would just be thinking how easy it is to break the cloud.

As long as I'm the one catching em! Why would they want to damage the product? That would make me cry..

I like this. I recently started hookahing on the back patio, so last night I started blowing vapor rings with the Glass VG...it's fucking cool!

Is the site down for everyone else? My buddys cloud went kaput the other night and he is trying to submit a ticket.

A design contest would be cool. Have cut outs that would fit around the cloud and have artists try to come up with a cool and well fitting design, Then maybe have them paint their theme or design on a blank cloud shell themselves.

Got my Cloud+ back from the shop for the 3rd time. Finally has the proper temperature range. Thanks guys, sucked waiting a month but its on point now. Good luck at the cup. I will be in Colorado visiting until then hope to make it.

Do the other owners of a first generation cloud ever get "ghost clicks"?

I'm sitting at my laptop in the food court of this mall, and I swear to god I can hear my cloud. Like seriously. I'm freaking out man...

I get nervous when I'm in the room with my cloud but can't hear the clicking because of low music volume or a hoodie covering my ears

yes, I'm afraid I have a permanent "ticking" that I hear now after having mine running on my desk for so long. I often have to look at the switch to see if it's on or not

Haha... I have never heard mine ticking. When I first got it, I had to stick it next to my ear to hear it. My son hears it but I can't. Too many Dead shows I think. BTW, my original ticker is running great after months and months of use. I hope VXH gets everything straightened out

Peace, heading to Utah for some spring skiing. When I get home I will have some new glass to show...
