Super Surfer Vaporizer

Vitolo

Vaporist
And any of you SuSV owners ever tried a Cloud Evo
Yes....
I owned the original VapeXhale Cloud, and the EVO.
I own over 100 vaporizers, and the clouds are both gone, but my SSSV and SSV are stoill in use daily.
I find that I need to change the screen every 3-4 days max... this is very annoying, oh and my wand gets really dirty too. I vaporize around 2-3 grams a day, is it normal? Maybe it's just because the stuff I grow is just too good, who knows...
My SSV is 10 years old (my sssv is only about 3years old).
I have a DBV also.
I have never replaced a screen.
When I clean wand, I leave screen intact.
I fill wand with ISO (91%) as I keep the bowl end of the wand against my left palm. I shake and drain repeatedly, then I use dish deterghent and hot water to do same..... then I rinse well from both directions with very hot water.
I then use shop vac to suction dry the wand.
I do this once a week.
I have never even removed the screen for cleaning.
It comes out imaculate.
That is 10 years on the SSV and 3 years on the SSSV

Just a dude
@Green_Rasta I love your post above and am happy that you have made the big switch. I'm glad you picked such a good solid, versatile home station for your very first vape; that's a wise move that will continue to pay dividends. Hey, if you're posting in your new vape's thread and @Vitolo is there with help, then you know you picked well. Same with @stickstones (dude knows his vapes) if these guys have a Super Surfer in their rotation, that says quite a bit. It's actually a ringing endorsement for this unit imo. :peace:

I really love this forum, I've stumbled upon it while looking for reviews online around 2 month ago and it was the biggest help I've found on the web. People are helpful and have first hand knowledge and no reason to lie about it.

The tips for producing nice, thick vapor were especially helpful, I'm a pro now :science:

The SS is pretty powerful and very good value.

WELCOME @Green_Rasta to FC!

I picked up a Super with the August discount stacked with the Baked in Vegas discount for only $170. What a great price, I’ve left this unit plugged in all week,and it is everything that I had hoped for in an on demand convection vape. For the whip use, I’ve had best results with the unit cranked up high. I’ve had less luck with the bag, I’ve scorched the last three bags, it feels like the fan isn’t fast enough to pull the air through without combustion when I have the same high temps as whipping. I tried dial at 12, but has similar results. Needs more practice, but I love how you can hit and quit with this vape, micro doses work well. You can also session with this sucker too, works even better with a vapor tamer.
I also wanted to point out that I have a Plenty too. The Plenty is a wonderful desk top vape, works best if you fill the large chamber with near .6 and share with at least one other person. I don’t get as satisfied using it with the reducer capsule, or when I use it by myself for smaller loads. Once heat up starts, it doesn’t feel like you can get halfway through a bowl and save the rest for later. These are maybe two of the reasons that I give the Super an edge over my Plenty.

Going to be joining the Super Surfer club soon!! Found an insane deal in Canada for $299 CAD, they are usually $420 USD!! Plus no shipping or import duties!!

Looks like an interesting vape with not too many reviews yet.
Super glad this thread was not hundreds of pages long....

Hi guys, had an ssv for years hasn't been used in some time now.

Decided to start using it again recently I used to use it straight with it set to 1 o clock ish.

I'm currently using it through a water piece with it set to 9 o clock (just over on) and it's so hot it's hurting my teeth.

Has anyone experienced this problem? Do I need a new vape?

Something is wrong. I would stop using it and send it in for repair or buy the required parts from 7th Floor and DIY it. IIRC they will walk you through it.
My SSV rocks at 1-2PM.

This is the Super Surfer thread by the way...LOL!

Useful information for new or frustrated silver surfers owners:

When I first purchased my Silver Surfer, I got the ground glass wand with a female heater cover. I hated that wand. I would either get no vape or combust, so the learning curve never straightened until I got a female wand. I still use the female heater cover and turn my temp on high and now get perfect clouds every time. The learning curve was 15 minutes once I changed my wand. I now also have a SSSV and the automated air sysyem is way better than I expected, also use a female wand and cover for it. Wish I knew how important and different the wands are to the entire experience when I first got my first one. Hope this helps someone.

The fan is not noisy. You can hear it, but at no point has it ever bothered me.

Both the temp and fan knobs turn the unit off as well, so you will set it every time you use it. Theoretically, you could leave it on all the time at the same temp and just turn the fan on and off as needed. Controls are old school analog, which allows you to really dial in your fan speed. The fan speed is the same for the first half (or so) of the dial and then it adjusts in real analog fashion. But the fan 'feels' solid and I don't doubt I could leave it on to blow up as big a bag as I'd want. I like to rotate the wand some while blowing up a bag, and it helps to stir it. If I don't, I usually get a little burn in one area at higher temps. Now that I have settled to a much lower temp, which is surprisingly satisfying in its thickness, I never have an uneven cook, even without rotating.

One other miniature gripe is the air inlet screens on the bottom are a pretty coarse gauge. Earlier in the thread it was discussed that a HEPA filter would work better, like supplied with the Zion and the Volcano. I agree and have started looking for a filter to cut and place in there. This is super minor, but I mention it as to not leave anything out.
This is very interesting to me especially since I just got my friend a brand new volcano. Do you think the the filter would affect performance at all ?just scooped a super surfer off the classifieds ,can’t wait to try it sidebyside with the volcano. Which is one amazing vaporizer if I do say so myself. So potent!definitely a staple in the vape world. Let’ssee what this super can do !hopefully the bags aren’t that difficult to use :)
Bags do get dry after a certain point but man they are convenient and just plain cool. Doesn’t the sssv have a ground glass adapter for the bag so you can hit it and cool down th vapor through a water piece ?

Sorry...I never landed on one. As I said, it was minor to me since I don’t blow bags with it all the time. It does mate with glass...a nice touch!
Do you have the quartz EOK ?want to try oils with it for sure. Never liked that ti nail they came out with. If someone could offer clarification on this...so I want the deep dish quartz. Does the super surfer come with a dimple heater cover that wouldn’t be compatible with th quartz or does it come without dimples ?

I'll admit, this is tempting to upgrade my DBV to a Super Surfer. Since I purchased the Silver surfer, I don't really use the DBV anyway:

Though, to be honest, I'd rather own all three! lol

Has anyone done the add glass beads to the glass adapter mod to this? I read the air intake is on the bottom and was wondering what that looks like. Is it even possible?

My Super Surfer has been my DD for the past few days and it is a powerhouse!
So easy to use with amazing flavor, crazy vapor production and potent effects.
I love the spherical glass connection as it is so easy to use and you can swivel the load so that the hot air hits all areas of the bowl.
The one mod I have preformed is to install an extraction mesh filter, an extremely fine SS mesh, so that the wand collects this beautiful golden oil. Since switching to very high quality herb, the oil retains a lot of the original flowers tastes so it is a literal flavor explosion! When using mediocre quality flowers, the oil was always just very flowery tasting.

Going to be using this one more often now!

@ohmygodimsohigh @Chingas
I tried your bead tech on my Super Surfer and almost died! LMAO!!
The SS heater cover does not have that hole in it and draws air through the base instead.
At NooN it was almost instant combustion! A super dark large ring with a tiny halo of green! very intense!
Turning it down was better but I find it more pleasant in the original mode and can get absolutely massive clouds with ease and super thick.

Hey friend, curious how often you use the super with a bag? Do you use the fan assist much when you aren't using a bag, like on normal draws? :peace:

Dude, this definitely qualifies for a case of VAS you know, if we are being truthful and realistic that is. ;)

I will admit openly I would have the exact same condition perhaps at a similar level as yourself I feel if I had not abandoned my dreaming and desire over more and increasingly exciting new devices to play with.

But saying that I have not buried VAS so deeply in myself it has more been repressed for the meantime I'm because it wasn't serving me me and I was just making do with other priorities taking the fore.

Psychedeliics and alternative plant compounds have helps to significantly reduce my need for and tolerance for vaping which has helped me to survive much more easily with the limited devices I have been able to tolerate.

But my SSV will be up a d running soon enough. Fingers crossed for tolerance ability because I am excited about it and would love to join the crowd as an owner and user.

All too often I feel left out in the cold so to speak hence my exploration of alternative psychoactive compounds.

But dude, you DEFINITELY have VAS! Although I have seen much more extreme cases so I would not be two alarms at this stage. :lol:

I have been having a temporary break from vapor actually due to such a severe winter viral infection but the kava and edibles have medicated me me Plenty enough this evening. :)

@lazylathe So is this actually a good vape? Strong hits, clear flavor and obvious strain signatures? It interests me. I think it looks better for me than the Hybrid is. Love the Hybrid but i'd like to take more frequent green hits. That Volcano dish is huge even with using spacers. Flavor could be better too.

How do bags on the Super compare to the Hybrid and the EQ?
