Since Germany’s legalisation, I started rolling joints myself instead of making my SO do all the work lol

    Ahhh yes the tampon phase. I remember those days.

    Although in 2024 I would recommend anyone to be done with smoking and buy a vaporizer. Even if you don’t consume as much, a dynavap is only 40-60EU, allows you to pretty much use any heat source, gives excellent vapor and is built to last.

    Vaporents are the future :)

    Do you use OCB Coal filters? These can be a little bit tricky to get rolled into a joint. I like the Curved OCB Tips the most, maybe give them a try to up your game. Although this looks pretty good for a start.

      Yea, I’m using coal filters as they’re a little more pleasant to smoke with. I used to choke a lot smoking through paper filters. But thanks for the suggestion - I’ll keep it in mind!

        Yeah i feel that, i only smoke with charcoal filters(for 3+ years) :D Have you tried the purize filters? I find they dont have as much of a taste of their own. Sadly not every kiosk or gas station offers them but headshops usually have them.

    Try to make sure there’s no herb between the filter and the paper, makes getting it tight around the filter much easier. Once you manage to tuck the paper around the filter nicely and have a nice grip around that part, it’s much easier to get the rest of the joint tight as well. And when the joint is properly tight around the filter, the filter won’t fly off when you shake the joint from the other end to get it tighter.

    Tldr just make sure you get the paper around the filter good and tight, the rest will fall in place
