Everything about cannabis is complex. There are thousands of strains, dozens of cannabinoids, and countless ways to enjoy the herb. Innovation over the last few decades has led to high-tech methods of inhaling cannabis, from vaporization to dabbing. However, many smokers still prefer the more primitive methods of getting stoned. One of the oldest ways to saturate the bloodstream with THC is the pipe. This humble design originated thousands of years ago, and the general mechanism has withstood the test of time. The steamroller pipe is an often overlooked-and very powerful-variation.
WHAT IS A STEAMROLLER PIPE?
Steamroller pipes look unusual. Sure, they're pipe-shaped, but their similarities to more conventional pipes stop there. These devices look more like chillums in their design and offer a much harsher hit than most pipes on the market.
What sets steamroller pipes apart from other models is the position of the carb-an air hole that, when released, allows smokers to clear the bowl. In most pipes, the carb occupies the side of the bowl, with the bowl positioned at the end of the stem. Steamroller pipes go against the grain when it comes to pipe design. The large carb hole resides at the very end of the pipe, and the bowl is further up the stem.
The unconventional layout of this design results in huge hits and an instant high. Let's discover exactly how these pipes work and why some stoners love them.
HOW DOES A STEAMROLLER PIPE WORK?
Steamroller pipes are primitive in nature. They're one of the simplest ways to smoke weed. There's no water, no electricity, and no thinking involved either. It's as simple as lighting the bowl and unleashing the massive carb hole at the end.
It might sound exactly like how a pipe works, but there's a big difference. The location and size of the carb hole turns a normal hit into a massive one. The gaping hole at the end of a steamroller pipe results in a resistance-free flow of air that penetrates deep into the lungs.
It's easy to control the smoke intake from a normal pipe. The carb hole can be toyed with to clear the desired amount of smoke. This is much harder to do when hitting a steamroller pipe. They almost always take the smoker off guard. For this reason, they're really not recommended for beginners.
