Celebrating New Year's Eve with Vape Tricks and Flavours

New Year’s Eve is one of the most special nights of the year, with friends, family, and acquaintances, all gathering together under one roof to celebrate each other’s existence and bid farewell to the year to welcome the next one. This is also the time when many people make quitting smoking their New Year’s resolution and say goodbye to their smoker’s lifestyle.

As a vaper, New Year’s Eve is the time to reflect back on how far you’ve come in your journey and be grateful for defeating a destructive habit i.e. smoking. You can celebrate in a lot of different ways like treating yourself with a brand new flavour you’ve been meaning to get, or doing vape tricks to entertain your friends or loved ones on this big occasion.

In this blog, we will highlight some of the ways you can celebrate and make the most out of New Year’s Eve with fun vape tricks, amazing flavours, and some other useful tips.

Prerequisite for Doing Vape Tricks

There are no stringent perquisites for doing vape tricks but there are a few things you can do in order to maximize the effect and utility of your experience. Your e-liquid is composed of 4 basic ingredients, namely, nicotine, PG, VG, and flavour concentrates. PG, or propylene glycol is responsible for the throat hit you get, whereas VG, or vegetable glycerin, is responsible for cloud formation.

In order to optimize the vape tricks, you can switch to an e-liquid that has a higher content of VG. E-liquid usually come in different ratios of PG and VG, like 50:50, 70:30, and 40:60. You can buy a PG: VG ratio such as 30:70, with a higher ratio of VG. Similarly, the wattage of your device also matters with respect to the cloud formation. Generally, advanced vapers prefer RDAs to perform vape tricks.

Ghost Inhale

The ghost inhale, also commonly known as mushroom cloud or snap inhale, is a common vape trick, practised and enjoyed by vapers of all levels – beginners or advanced – because it’s really simple. The trick involved exhaling a cloud of vapour and rapidly sucking it back in. This means you have to take a drag from your vape device and keep the vapour in your mouth. When you exhale it, you must aim for a quick burst of vapour rather than a huge cloud. Because when you suck it back, it must look like a phantom or ghost of a cloud entering your mouth. Also, the suction part must be performed slowly and in a calculated way.

This trick doesn’t require a lot of practice, and if you follow all the steps, you will be able to do it right in your third or fourth attempt.

Vaping Tip - How to Get a Smooth Vaping Experience

A lot of new vapers struggle with throat burn and coughing when they switch to vaping, and complain about not getting a smooth vaping experience. In order to get a smooth and consistent vaping experience, it is important to understand that the wick of the coil needs to be saturated with juice. Inhaling several times in pulses can help draw juice into the wick before firing. Airflow is often needed over the coil and wick to prevent it from getting too hot and actually burning the wick and scorching the juice, which can cause a lot of irritation to your throat.

Sometimes the flow of juice to the wick isn't fast enough to replace the vapourized juice at higher power, causing the smooth vapour to become irritating as the wick starts to burn. The power needs to be reduced to keep the temperature of the coils stable and to prevent the wick from going dry. A lot of people tend to push the power higher than what the juice flow and airflow can handle without burning. It's better to start with a lower power, delayed fire button, and long draws so long as they remain smooth. Increase the power a little bit, then repeat the process. If at some point the vape gets more irritating, then cut the power back to the point where it remains smooth.

It can take time to learn how to consistently get a smooth vaping experience. But you must remember that you want a thinner consistent stream as opposed to a big front-loaded hit.

E-Liquid Flavour

The flavour of your e-liquid matters as much as the device when it comes to getting the most out of your vaping experience and actually making it more enjoyable. The choice with respect to flavour is always based on subjective taste, but sometimes even subjective preferences don’t feel as satisfying as you thought they would.

This is where the quality and the choice of brand come in. It is crucial to get your e-liquid from a well-established and reputable store, because not only would you get the accurate flavour as per your counterpart preference, but also the desired consistency and taste. If you still have some New Year’s Eve shopping left to do, we recommend you get your vape shopping done at online vape stores. You can also check out IVG’s new e-liquid range: IVG 6000 E-liquids.

Stealth Vaping

Stealth vaping is another useful trick that comes in handy if you are expecting a lot of older people or young children at a New Year’s Eve gathering. Stealth vaping allows you to vape without making it apparent that you are actually vaping. With stealth vaping, you inhale the vapour in small bouts or take small drags and slowly inhale it. The leftover vapour is then exhaled either by pursing up your lips downwards or you can also do it underneath your shirt. 

A Final Tip for Newbies Who Plan to Switch to Vaping

A lot of people who switch to vaping after being a smoker forget the difference between smoking and vaping. Smoking has a tight draw and works with a mouth-to-lung mechanism. They expect to hit a big mod with an RDA to give a similar experience but then forget that RDAs are Direct-to-lung and are going to be vastly different from a small puff of a cigarette. This is why for beginners, it is recommended to start their vape journey with a simple pod or a disposable vape as these devices have similar MTL mechanisms and a tight draw as that of cigarettes.

Therefore, if you plan to switch to vaping, start small and get a starter kit or a disposable vape. These vape devices don’t require any prior knowledge or experience with vaping for you to get accustomed to them.
