what is it about stoners that makes them take pride in how they roll a joint? Its as bad as beer drinkers taking pride in how quick they can down a pint.

I'm more of a blunt man, I have never met anybody who can roll even nearly as good as I can in my life. I love rolling sooo much, it's like art to me. I won't smoke a blunt unless it's PERFECT. It's a great feeling to perfectly roll a joint or blunt and then smoke it.

.. because believe it or not some people like smoking a nicely rolled joint instead of something resembling a soggy tampon. So its actually more like a beer drinker not wanting to drink warm Miller out of a plastic bowl.

I'm a modest roller. I just wanted to take some time to reflect on the reasoning. Perhaps a waste to some.. but they're probably watching football right now.

I roll the perfect spliff, it's the best spliff you will ever smoke period. The only specialty joint i have mastered is the tulip though. I have one apprentice below me who i have taught my powers to, his joints are getting better and better everyday.

No no no, that is bullshit. My joints burn perfectly right to the end and i never use a crutch EVER. When it gets too small i snuff it out and save it for a bowl. If the weed is insanely dank, i'll just put tobacco at the end so it'll soak up some of that sticky res so your lips don't get nasty.

I can roll decently, but I do need to practice on making my joints tighter. Any suggestions, feedback on getting a tight J?

Airflow is key.

You can have perfect airflow without a crutch, it's called a crutch because its for disabled people who cannot roll a smokable joint without one IMO.

joint w/ crutch = harder to roll than one w/o a crutch.
Terrible point.
I've smoked great joints with or with out a crutch. But I've found a crutch to really seal the deal on a great spliff, and to be one of the last steps to rolling skill next to I/O rolling.

I love rollen em. I go through a pack a week. Rolled my first 16 years ago now out of a receipt. I have gone through phases. From perfect== to cones with crutches. I like a light taper. I roll maybe a bowl pack with a pinch of tobacco.
I also hate when people can't roll them, or say they can't. Now a novice is a novice, but i expect all smokers to know how to roll em.
The girl of my dreams rolled a 7 gram hash spliff with 5 papers. Made it tight and perfect. She was an artist when it came down to it.

Hold it tighter, work from the outside in or the inside out. Keep an even pressure and work the paper round, Never loosen up on the paper. It becomes mechanical after some time. When you go to lick it, keep everything in place and keep your fingers tight on it. Then give a little roll to stick it.

Yea those rizlas are real nice i agree with that. I prefer the regular zig zag king size though, it is thicker than those rizlas but not too thick and the gum is always perfect.
