Hey Goat, I'm guess by kick-back style you mean that the neck is leant back. From my recent experience in looking at glass it seems that you might have to sacrifice the ice pinches as most pieces I've seen with leant back necks don't have them. Saying that, I'm sure there are probably exceptions which everyone will be happy to correct me with.
Since you said you liked heady pieces but scientific glass is also good
this piece by Colie Glass seems to be a balance of the two. It's not got a massive volume at 12 inches tall but from
this video it looks like the two percs (showerhead and 8-arm) give it plenty of diffusion, which will cool the smoke/vapor and allow you to take big hits. Being that it's 7mm glass and only $155 + shipping($7.50 states, $13.50 Canada) it seems like a deal that will be hard to beat.
Andy from Colie Glass is a member on the forum and I know from personal experience he would be very willing to answer any questions you have.
Otherwise if you're willing to sacrifice the heady look another place I would consider is
JhanPixel's iOffer store. It is worth noting that he is also a
member here and he has a very good selection of different size pieces, both in volume and height. A good example of one of his leant back pieces is the
13 inch Wubbler. If you prefer something with a little more "junk in the trunk" then he does a
12-arm bubbler with a massive can also available with a
dewar joint. These are just a couple of his impressive range and I definitely recommend you browse his store for yourself to find something you like. A lot of the pieces have youtube links so you can see how they perform which is very useful. His prices are already very competitive and he offers a further 10% discount on anything over $100 on the iOffer store to FC members.
He also makes new pieces all the time in fact if you check
his thread you can see his latest oil rig which doesn't have a leant back neck but it does have some subtle colours on it which you may like if you're looking for something heady. Although it has a male joint he may be willing to customise one and put a female joint on it if you ask him and I'm sure he'd be willing to answer any other questions you have.
With this last suggestion I feel I may be going a little off-topic as if you want something large then they are certainly not cheap. However if you are willing to pony up the dough then
Leviathan/M&M Tech might be another choice. Lots of people on the forum have the 14 inch
Lattice Bubbler so it will be very easy for you to find videos of it in action especially if you check
Lev's thread.
All of the suggestions I have given are USA made and use only top quality glass, I hope they help you make the choice that's right for you.
. It's not so bad though, a little tape for temporary fix and it's still worth the low price you pay for it.
