Smoke/roll joints? Learn to backroll

This is to minimise the amount of paper you use when you roll. With this instead of having a layer of paper over paper,youy only have one layer because as the glue is on the inside and is wet from the outside,all the paper past the glue is redundant.
It's how they roll in Holland.
When you pull a paper out of the pack,fold it over the opposite way so the glue is on the outside facing you.
Roll away as normal except here the glue is on the inside when you roll it so be careful not to crease it because you'll have to lick it from the outside.
When the strip of glue overlaps with the paper,roll it around another bit and lick the glue strip from the outside.
Wet it a bit more and press it on with your fingers.
Edit: Oh yes,you now unravel the joint so it has a flap of excess paper. You burn this evenly across leaving you with a minimal amount of paper on your joint
How to roll a joint inside out, the Amsterdam way.
I've known of it for a while but I never got the hang of it. It's a handy old trick

i don't tend to do this with joints because i've found at times that i'm not able to back-roll with even density resulting in more runs.
however, whenever i have to use any papers larger than single wides for rolling cigs or spliffs, i always do it. i picked it up from an italian chick i met in barca. when forced to use larger papers, i can really notice the difference in taste from the lack of paper.

The Dutch roll like that? That's more of a french habit... You have such a great variety of papers here that you can just get the ones that fit perfectly for your rolling needs.
Not a lot of Dutch people roll like that nor do Belgians . Just tobacco/weed and roll away!
Amsterdam joints are more like a cone joint

We went through a stage of all back rolling round here. I do prefer it because you can taste the weed so much more without the taste of burning paper.

Something about watching that brown processed crap fall on top of that pile of beautiful green bud just leaves me completely unable to listen any further...

I always called it the "flag joint", because the flap of paper looks like a flag when you are finished...
-------------------- The fire has many things to teach. But so does the human experience.. which is like fire, sometimes you just need to stoke the coals and sometimes you just need to add a log or reposition the log matrix. But a well built fire will be much more self-sustaining than a poorly built one, and they all need love to grow. And don't fuck around or your might burn yourself. Must always respect the fire. - Shroomism

Cool video, I'll have to try this sometime. I love how it says he mixes tobacco in because Dutch weed is too pure ... everyone in Europe rolls spliffs because that's the culture. Too pure my ass.

I have wanted to try this forever. Maybe I'll try it today. I love rolling joints but I never smoke them because that's way too much weed for just me. So I just roll them, break them up, roll them again, break them up.
