you guys are crazy nothing surpasses roor plain and simple! Ive hit Ehle and honestly i was not impressed at all want to know what ehles remind me off a knock offs just like what bushmaster did with the hurricane design! thats just me im not hateing i just would never buy a ehle i would buy the real deal and get a roor.de. and mr.tony youve must not seen the king or the queen made by the germans cause that statement they shit all over custom roors is crazy i looked at that page and i was wondering how u think that cause i did not see one tube i liked on that page! sorry guys i stick next to my post a while back nothing will ever compare to german made roors no matter what it is! But hey everyone has their own looks at things so if you like it buy it thats how i look at glass!
Now this is the definition of custom!made by who roor.de

and roor.des just milk witht the snap of a finger!

Made my mind up im gonna add the NORTH LONDON HIPPY to this COLLECTION!


ps
thanks for your input edit lovers im gonna go with the hippy i want it so bad so im gonna get it a littel pricey for a 35cm but after thinking long and hard who cares i want that german!

chi i think this is the first time we agreed on a roor topic! the first sentence in your last post is perfect!couldnt of said it better and i also love the terminator just not a huge fan of silver as you can see i love gold on my germans thats why i ended up with the bling pin i wanted a white lines but didnt have gold so i didnt buy it! but i would love the teriminator just with solid gold and gold ice notches and i would buy it in a heart beat!

anywho peace homies! heres some smokeables for all u to throw in your roors and toke up!

well that lux is an american tube. Honestly most of the people who do section for roor us could top that section it's nothing special. just big, not very intricate.






roor head, I'm talking about what available online. I know there is some baller shit at the roor store.


dude what were the spec on the ehle you hit? Knock off? really bro?

Let me know how you like the hippy. I felt the same way about some much cash for 14" of bong.

you had to see that RooR in person T anyone who has would tell you its just out of this world! and it was so heavy and solid overall just a perfect German RooR! Bro you could order from the Adam shop and you get that number off the internet so any roor you want is avaliable online! the elhe i hit was a 5mm arouind the same hite as my straight tube i think and it was a beaker bottom!! yea man all i think off when i see elhe is a cheap German ROoR im soorry thats just me man thats why i said its a knock off and the fact it reminded me of what bushmaster did to the hurricanes as well which was a terriable insult to all hurricane owners! but who cares yea man ill let you know what i think off the hippy ill post pics sooner or later im gonna order it in a week or 2 just got to pickup a qp or so because i go threw weed like nothing when i buy new roors! for me cash isnt a problem im lucky to say that but i was always good at makeing money and saveing money so it doesnt bother me to much ppaying that price for a 35cm roor but i like so im gona get and i was planning on spending alot more on a custom so to me im saveing a alot of money doing this!

peace and love to all hope you have some bomby to char on right now!

i dont doubt that roors are probably better quality than ehles (they better be for being over 50% more expensive) but honestly it's not a cheap bong, not anywhere close. Mine is a 5mm 45 cm cylinder with an 18.8 joint. German scientific glass. It's solid, heavy, milks up super fast from the big joint and clears just as quick. My friend says he can hit that maybe just as hard as he can his 6 ft bong.
I dont see how a roor would improve the quality of the hit; it may be more resistant to breakage, may have less minute imperfections, but hitting a roor of the same dimensions as my ehle, i dont see how that could be different.
that being said i do hope to add a roor to my collection, but honestly I dont expect it to hit any harder than my ehle (assuming its the same size) just because I paid more for it. that may be more the placebo effect, if you will..

Babbaboey you are lost man thats all im gonna say! have you not read any of my last post ive hit a exspensive elhe or however u spell that it was a 5mm beaker bottom as tall as my straight tube and it hit no where close to as good as any german roor ive hit and i mean any german roor i hit! my 45mm roor straight hit harder better and quicker then a elhe 45mm beaker! price has nothing to do with it man its all about how they are blown and what glass they are made with its easy to see that roor.de uses alot better glaass due to price alone thats a big part of why roors are so exspensive! but like i said if you like eleh then go for it and buy one its that easy but ill tell you that roors hit better so im done on the topic! i like german roors u like elehs cool im not gonna say the same thing over and over again!

and mr.tony like i said thats just me man and every body i know that gets down with german roors even the guy in the head shop were i live said the same thing and he sells them! so thats that hope you enjoy whatever bong you decide to buy and have a good one!
peace!

I'm leaning towards the ROOR Icemaster 5.0 black 45 @ 189euros looks good

unfortunately the roor site has a glitch in that we can select english as language and everything works great in english except the TERMS tab, which is in German

so, could someone help me find out how much delivery for such a bong would cost to Australia?

what other accessories would i need? extra bowls?

there are 2 options for this bong...

- 14.5mm bistibil
- 18.8mm bistibil

help? :bashhead:

But the pricing is virtually the same, in fact what I just saw the Ehles were heaps more expensive in the custom pieces

200euros seems to be the base price with ehles, and this gives you 3 options whereas for 200euros you get a great range of options from roor

am i wacked or is this right? (yeah probably both, i know *wink*)

I respect your opinion, Roorhead, however i disagree.
We all know you love Roors, and with good reason. But you're quite obviously not very objective when it comes to your opinion of Roors.

Let me ask you this: you say the ehle didn't hit as good as the roor. why do you think that is? if the bong's specs are identical, there shouldn't be any difference. how does the quality of the glass affect how well it hits? thats like saying because i eat with a silver spoon instead of a steel spoon my food tastes better. :rasta:

It's the placebo effect. Because the roor is more expensive, you think you're getting a better hit. And hey, if it's real in your mind, then it's real. but trust me, it's only in your head, Roorhead... :joint:

However, i will maintain that one day im going to get a roor and do a comparison myself, but i honestly dont think roors have some innate advantage over other bongs just because they're roors. A ferrari and a dodge viper have about the same performance, but one costs twice as much as the other. a ferrari's a nicer car, no doubt, but when it comes to rubber meeting the road it's not any faster than a viper, and certainly not twice as fast.

Hey cornflake,, { everyonedoes it . com } carries both roor and ehle. I was eyeing the 500 ml. ehle with notches, only $90. Already have a couple tubes that are similar to it so think I'm gonna wait n get a bentneck though it is a good deal.

14.5 vs. 18.8 is the opening on the joint that you put the downstem into. I used to like 14, now I lean towards 18,, but that's mostly because I use perc tubes and I like the extra flow from the 18 which helps to fill the tube quickly. Personal preference.

Far as bowls go my advice is to make sure you get yourself a nice lil snapper bowl. They have a couple small cone shaped bowls on everyone does it that look like the perfect one hitters.

You should love that roor,, really the perfect all around daily driver.

Should also grab a diffuser while you're at it.

Not a placebo at all if your a true glass head and can appreciate the quality.

It's not about the specs it's about the details like

-is the thickness of the tubing consistent throughout the tube ( bongs made with shity chinex tube will not be as consistent as say a german roor)
-angle of the joint
-placement of the joint
-joint weld
-weld from the tube to the base
-how the mouth piece is rounded off, some shityier bong with have an edge that makes hitting the piece uncomfortable.


some may be fine with a very low end $25 bong from a local head shop, though some smokers out there can really appreciate the quality.

like Mercedes vs a kia.

Very good points, Mr. Tony.
I will say this: if there are only minute differences in the details above between two bongs, then i dont believe the quality of the hit will be substantially different.
