    Why the hell are they being put onto glass bongs??? I don't understand.. I've noticed this on a couple websites that are selling GonG's and they will be $100-$300 and have a fucking carb hole on the side.. I thought the whole idea of GonG is to have a solid airflow so you didn't need a carb hole.. wtf

    I've seen them on small plastic shitty bongs, but not legit glass ones... interesting. But stupid imo.

    I know RooR germany has had a custom option to put a carb on your tube for you just about forever, (don't know if they do anymore, actually) but there was a warning on the website that it was dumb and for little girls.

    Yeah, the whole point of GonG is a smooth airflow from the bottom, to clear faster and easier. A well designed bong should clear with almost no effort, much faster and with less drag than a carb introduces.

    Carbs on tubes are for stupid kids that always smoked out of plastic water bottles, and can't comprehend slides. I've seen a good number of people fuck themselves up by not knowing how to use a slide bong, and being afraid to ask for help. Or by being shown, and simply being too stupid to comprehend it.

    Remember, using a slide is sort of like driving a standard..... Perfectly intuitive and better in every way, but americans simply can't do it, for some reason.

    I've seen them on shitty plastic bongs where the slider doesn't even come out. I always hated them because I'd end up sucking through some of the grass while trying to clear the chamber. Don't know who in their right mind would want a carbed bong.

    These are made for girls who can't put their big girl panties on and handle their hit. I have a friend that has one and I give her a hard time constantly because she can barely hit mine...

    ^^i don't see how it would make taking a hit "easier"

    you can take a small or a large hit with a slide carb

    this makes sense. if it didn't have one there would be alot of stale smoke left in the bubbler part. i mistakenly bought one without a carb and it suuuuucks. i don't like ash catchers in general
