Always been a fan of pure smoke culture, I used to enjoy mj in my RooR as I thought that was one of the "healthiest" methods of doing it. I always heard and read various things 'bout vaporization so one day I decided to gather some info on the possibilities. I found out that there was a wonderful and good lookin' vape that matched perfectly my beloved glass bong, the freakin herborizer! So I started gathering reviews and info and I went to buy it the day after. I then started lurking here and a new world has opened to me! No one that I know, is so into mj culture as me, here where I live. When I talk about abv, edibles and vapor, everyone is starin at me like I'm some kind of alien, or fucked up pothead ahaha. People here is back to 20 years ago with their way of thinkin'...meh
Anyway I started to spread the word, and many friends are curious and positive about vape, although reluctant in investing much money...
I ordered my new MFLB few days ago, so I will stop combusting when I'm not home, and I want definitely try to vape in a movie theatre, ahhaahah soooo cool, gettin high and enjoying movie in stealth mode :D cannot wait. I already made 2 batches of cannabutter with my abv, and I will keep improving my methods of "recycling", this site is my everyday bible.

know that feeling too, still love 'spreading the word' tho like some freaky evangelist ... if only we could go door to door lol! Have managed to get a couple of people to quit tobacco by introducing vapor as a 'diversion therapy' i guess u could call it.

After taking my first week break after smoking for nearly a year, I got back into blazing by hitting my friends VG. A few days later, I found this site, and eventually ordered a MFLB the same night! Vaping ever since, it truly changed my life.

I had a lightbulb-like vape back in high school. It was a small glass globe with a longer glass tube that came out of it. It worked, better than the fishbowl vape I got a few years later.

I remember that I ended up putting joints in the end of the glass tube to hold the 2nd hand smoke coming off the tip of the joint. lol

I just looked for a pic of one but cant find it....but I did find this glorified piece of shit hahah

My roommate in freshmen year of college broke out a vape of some sort. I'm not sure what it was but it was a whip style vape. I hadn't been smoking that long and I was blown away by how much better the high was. The taste, the lighter-less function, all of it was brilliant.
 
SirElton,

Poeh, that's been a while. First time for me was at the very first Highlife festival here in Holland in the early '90's (I think?) where they had this huge bong with one of those paint-stripping-hot-air-guns. I'm not entirely sure, but I think it was the guy that later developed the Verdamper that was introducing people to this monster.

I wasn't impressed though. I liked the taste but the few hits I had the chance to try (I remember there was quit a large line of people waiting to try this thing) weren't doing that much for me and I continued smoking for years after that.

Cool thread...

I can't remember why I wanted to start vaping! Anyway, about 9 years ago I bought an Aromazap vaporizer for 100.00 shipped. It was sort of junky but it's what I could afford at the time. After I had gone through two of them, my friend sent me his herbalaire I fell in love with the bag system and when it finally died I bought another one. Then that friend sent me his cano that he didn't use anymore and that's what I vape with now, passing HA on to a friend.
 
Linard,
First experience was in college and i loved it
felt like i was getting more bang for my buck
it felt like i was getting high for the first time
i think we were using a vape box? and an arizer extreme q
which then led to me finding fuckcombustion and lurking on it for years

My first vape experience was about two years ago when two of my friends told me to hit this thing that looked like a giant black sex toy (Vapir No2). I had smoked before so it didnt do too much, but I was intrigued and invested the next day or two into research, me being the curious type. They ended up dissatisfied, and with a few more trial sessions I ended up purchasing from them for half price. Opened up a whole new amazing world filled with gadgets and recycling herbs and reclaim, and healthier living!

About 4 years ago one of my friends got a new room mate who had a DBV and the first day he vaped a bunch of sour D out of it with us. I was so amazed by it I instantly went online on my phone while I was there and ordered my own DBV. Years later I now own 8 vapes currently and have had more that have moved on from my collection and I still am thankful for that one day with the DBV that opened my mind. I had the money sitting around ready to spend it on a sovereignty tube or a SGW waffle tube when ever one came up on aqualab but I am very glad I used it on the DBV instead.

I used to roll mj/tobacco spliffs with a cigarette filter. I also used a tar filter that you put on the end of a cigarette that supposedly catches tar for a healthier smoking experience. Through its clear plastic you could see a buildup of gunk after use. I convinced a friend that smokes cigarettes to try a tar filter. After 1 cigarette it only had about 1/5 if the buildup that my 0.3 g mj/tobacco spliff would normally have. That was the point I knew I need to find an alternative.

Sitting on my toilet blowing smoke towards the vent with my VG has since evolved to...sitting on my toilet blowing smoke towards the vent with my FF/water tool.

My smoking journey went thusly- bowl/spoon, blunts, joints, and then bongs. Everything I read pointed to glass as the purest way and water to be better, so I started for fancier bongs. Meanwhile, I was having all this coughing, and starting to get chest pains. Not being stupid, I knew it was from the heavy smoking but not really knowing how to fix it other than quitting-and I wasn't a quitter. I forget exactly how I heard about the Pax, but I liked the stealth and it was so sexy. Got hooked up by a friend at my LHS, and while the Pax didn't stop my combustion, learning more about it, and vapes in general, led to where I am now, and I'm so glad.

My first experience vaping was with the V Tower by Arizer. I never understood all the positive reviews this vape got. I found it totally useless and it turned me off to vaping for several years.

My buddy had a vaporizer that looked like a gumball machine. It was a hot plate covered by a dome with tubing attached to the dome or something like that. It sucked

My 1st experience was with the volcano about 6 years ago. After trying that and not wanting to spend $600 dollars on my own, I found the extreme q and was very happy.

Its Just Temporary
My first time was with a home made vape using a light bulb and a screw cap from a soda bottle with two holes drilled in the cap.One hole you inserted a straw into and the other was for air flow

It was with a volcano! But I didn't know what was going on. I just assumed it combusted and put it into a bag. Didn't notice any difference in the high because I was more focused on the hanging out. Ninja 1st experience! Sa-sa-sha! Pocket sand!

About 20 years ago (back when I was in high school) my best mate and I bought what could only be described as a pretty junky vaporizer (though I'm not sure just how big the market was back then, or if there really even was a market for vaporizers in Australia at the time). It was a heated metal bowl style vaporizer with a jam jar which screwed onto a glazed pottery base. It was a pretty lack-lustre experience and was nowhere near as efficient with botanicals as they are these days, so after a few months of intermittent use we traded it for $50 worth of flower and went back to combustion and completely forgot about vaporizing until just a year or two ago.

I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too
My first vape was maybe 15 years ago on a home made thing that looked like an upturned glass jar on top of a heater with a whip attached.

Was vaping good hash but was not a great experience. Just light wispy vapor.

My first experience with a vaporizer was actually smoking hash in a BC globe vape, not vaping really it was being used more for an electronic hash under glass alternative.

Up until recently I would have said my first true vaporizing experience was with the OG vapor genie classic but have been told I used a Toasty Top in the mid 90's but I'm not sure they really existed at the time and that period of my life is pretty hazy due to illness and Rx meds i was on at the time so now I'm not sure.

I Do know the vapor genie made me see the light and when the mflb came out combustion became rare for me.
Now I can't see myself smoking herbs/hash ever again.
