  • Definately a big thing where i'm from in Canada, but we just buy a $3 deck of cards and BAM that's a lot of filters right there

  • tang raw j roller

  • I wouldn't ever think of smoking a joint with out roach

  • yup up here in canada we call em cuts or filts (filters)

  • I love useing them but I roll with a machine so its easy.

  • its easier to roll with roaches and you don't need to hunt down cardboard you just use the cardboard package of the papers

  • in the bay area CA we always called them crutches. dont get confused, we use them. everytime. whats the point in rolling a joint if youre not going to enjoy all the weed inside?

  • Im Canadian ( B.C ) and we rarely smoke joints without filters.. which is also what we call them over here. who wants to get resin all over there lips and fingers?! Even throing roaches that hae filters in the bong works, i mean it takes 2 seconds to rip of the filter lol?

  • as a canadian we call them cut

  • I carry a couple flash cards in my wallet in case I ever have to roll a joint. If you know how to put em in it is actually faster to use the crutch to roll the joint.

  • ive never smoked a joint without a roach, here in europe we can do it fast, so it does'nt take up toke time or nothin

  • where im from we call it a thangy thang

  • We call them roaches!

  • trust me its no canadian thing :P i only know one guy who use's crutches but he can do it faaast

  • im from sf, ca and here i always use crutches. i just rip part of the zig zag pack. its not just a euro thing. we do it in norcal too.

  • Don't usually roll with crutches because they're too much of a pain in the ass for me. And I haven't been able to find one reason to use a crutch. If I roll crutchless, I can smoke the roaches in my bong later, getting me more high then if I just smoked a joint. I'm from Canada btw, and it seems like everybody here rolls with crutches, don't know why, I just don't feel like it.

  • omg i need a filter pap im from canada though

  • @ministerpopilyo just use a bus pass or a peice of stif paper and cut them into strips then roll them up

  • @insignia2543 hella ya i was jus sayin jays dnt pull good without them

  • i live in canada ad we call them tweets :)

  • Next time you roll a joint without a "Canadian", when your almost don't with the joint put it in a bowl parallel with the downstem and pack weed around it. As the roach burn down it will lite the the weed also. Just an idea I had one day

  • my friends and i just use the stems in the end. it keeps it open, and you can taste it when it gets to the stems

  • i usualy use them cause it helps airflow and makes it seem sturdier. I use a handroller so mine come out perfect.

  • yeah i like to smoke my roaches cuz of the resin soaked bud and rolling paper at the end... i cant smoke cardboard sorry :(

  • @Isaiahlikesutube After the first hit, the resin is all over the rest of the bud in the joint...

  • The reason many europeans use rips is that cannabis in Europe is mostly smoked as hash mixed with tobacco, so it`s used as a filter to prevent small pieces of hash to enter your throat and lungs+ that you can smoke the whole joint and let nothing go to waste:) Another trick is to break off the tip of a cigarette and use that.

  • it smokes better imo.

    you can hold it more easy

  • I never even thought about rolling without one!

    Canadian :P

  • i use them all the time, im canadan

  • red lighter alert... baadddd man

  • im from the bay area and almost everyone uses a crutch, especially on bigger joints (2-3 papers)...

  • you can just smoke down to the crutch. dont need to hastle with the roach

  • im from canada and we call it filters and or roaches actually hahaha

  • crutch

  • I leaned to roll with roaches. And bible paper

  • Crutches let you smoke all the weed in your joint as opposed to leaving a roach that either wastes bud (if you toss it) or you have to save for later (if you keep it). In terms of the leftover resin on the paper of a roach...I dunno, hasn't ever been worth it to me. Rather just comfortably smoke every bit of the bud I got. 

  • @guitarbumx u sound like a bitch

  • im from ny and they're called filters

  • I have a special bowl that holds joints in my bong. you can light a blunt in it and just keep smoking and smoking and smoking without lighting. Filters suck tho

  • Theres something primitive about a joint with no roach.

  • raw makes a little pack of pre cut tips that i use. just roll them um and your good. i also got my smokeshop to stock the raw connoisseur pack. wich has king sized papers with the tips in the same package. im from houston, and i'm the only one i know who does this, and i ALLWAYS do it.

  • IT,S SO YA DONT EAT YOUR WEED LOL.............

  • From America, and I can hardly stand without a tip. I'll come out to CPA one day and show you guys the wonders. If you do it right, it's actually the easiest way to roll.

  • From Canada and I just call it a filter, Obviously not used like one. But I just love them because the joint smokes better. and you don't really waste weed.

  • i think rolling without a crutch is harder

  • roachy xD

  • in new zealand its a cardi

  • no it def is a canadian thing my friends and i live up here in canada and they wont smoke a joint unless there is a filter so you californians werent far off with your nickname for 'em LOL

  • @shotgunpowderman congrats man your friends are pussies.

  • all of you people... They are called CRUTCHES.... nothing else... they are not filters.. THEY DONT FILTER ANYTHING They are called crutches because you use them like you would use a CRUTCH to stand... They used to sell something called a STONE you would put the end of the joint inside, and puff away... Shaped like a small cylindrical bead... Keeps your fingers COOL and unburnt. Sometimes these two are spot on, sometimes not so much... You forgot to mention ROACHCLIPS too... goddamnit..

  • stoners on the go

  • ahh i understand but when you really get into appriciating a well rolled joint youll notice how well filters really help and some of the time it can even help roll

  • yea crutches.....i don't cuz i like to fill the whole joint....never really get burned lips....good on blunts though and can change the taste i think

  • never rolled a joint without a filter

    it makes it way better

    just rip the roach to put it in

  • I Do Not Crutch. Crutch Pinner.

  • filters are for little bitches

  • @mrhappy318 it makes it smoke better. therefor harsher hit. therefor your the bitch

  • How the fuck can people stand not using filters?...

  • @SnowKid32 Its not that big of a deal, and you can stick your roach in your bong and get like 5 big rips out of it

  • @ISmokePopRocks 5 big rips? Off a roach? Maybe if you have paper napkin lungs....

  • @SnowKid32 Yea that was an exaggeration but you do get a couple nice hits off a roach

  • @SnowKid32 not be a pussy?

  • @bassplayer703 Lol, caring about wasting weed by having it shoot into your mouth doesn't make you a pussy. Nice shit talking though, douche.

  • @SnowKid32 lol,i was trolling man,chill the fuck out. haha

  • @bassplayer703 Then why'd you stop so early? C'mon fail troll >.>

  • @SnowKid32 i'm bad at what i do :(

  • @bassplayer703 Lmao, well, as long as that has recognition you're alright in mah book.

  • @SnowKid32 You have a book,can i read it?

  • @bassplayer703 Which book, bud-o?

  • @SnowKid32 idk, can it teach me EVERYTHING.

  • @bassplayer703 ALL THE WONDERS OF YOUR MIND, YES YESSSSSSSS

  • @SnowKid32 well,i know a way to discover all the wonders of the universe. Morgan Freeman. Done.

  • @bassplayer703 My eyes are open now. 0_0

  • @SnowKid32 I would hope so, i mean how else would you be able to read my comments?

  • @bassplayer703 Braille on flatscreens can be a reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaal bitch alright.

  • @SnowKid32 May i read you shirt in Braille?

  • @bassplayer703 Shirt?

  • @SnowKid32 you from the UK? im thinking this too, im actually thinking its wierd not to use a filter :S

  • @shabbahrama Nope, Southern California... 

  • Being from canada i grew up pretty much only smoking "canadians"

    And straight up i promise you i could roll one up just as fast, i dont even roll with it in the paper, i just shove it in after and usually make it out of the zig zag cover.

  • @TheZigZagg I do the same thing most of the time putting in the filter at the end only takes like 5 seconds but you get all the weed instead of a traditional joint where you lose that .1 or .05 of weed its much better

  • i love crutches, i cant call it a filter because it doesnt filter anything..

  • up here in marin we almostttt always use crutches

    

  • ive found that joints with filters smoke better

  • i like it cuz it stops the bud from going in my mouth

  • im from nc and its just whatever you feel like at the time. i personally kinda like the filters because its somethin to hold onto when that joints gettin down to the end so u dont burn your fingers when hitting it or your lips but its not what alotta people do here mostly.

  • I always roll with them. I find it way easier, especially with shake. It helps the jay hold its shape and feels classier. Plus you don't get any scooby snacks in your mouth.

  • eat the roach man

  • @dvssk8er3 I live in BC and we call em peanuts.... this one time we made this one kid eat the peanut HAHAHA :D

  • I'm in BC and it's a tip here

  • in canada its a filter.

    goddamnit

  • LOL about the roach in the bong, I do that. You just put the roach filter-side down into the bowl and apply light suction, the smoke will just feed into the bong haha. Just stop pulling when you get to the cartboard :)

  • we call it a "tip" in utrecht, holland

  • its called a filter, fuck all your stupid ass names. filter has a definition and guess what..

  • @b2rc0d3 Crutches/roaches/filters don't actually filter anything. It's just a word, lmao.

  • @Hermylolol not really, you can see on the filter the resin and discolor-ization. it also keeps you from gettin weed on yo lips. so it filters x2

  • @b2rc0d3 Sure it keeps weed from getting on your lips, but other than that, they don't really filter anything. There's resin on the joint paper/bliunt wrap, doesn't mean the paper is filtering it. Resin collects on the sides of pipes, the glass isn't filtering anything. Unless you're using a cotton filter or something, which would filter out THC.

  • We call it a Gerik.(with a hard 'g', like id "Goat")

  • I call it a filter.

  • Most people i know here in Jersey call it a roach

  • when i roll joints i roll them with the filters

    i actually find it easyer to roll that way,

    when i roll it its a cone shape and i only roll it with the cardboardthen i pack the weed in after. i find it the best way to do it especially when your outdoors in the winter. and you dont want the weed to blow around everywhere

    you can crush up the weed in a ziplock and just scoop it into the joint

  • im from canada and its called a filter, i only use it if its really well grounded up weed so it doesnt get in your mouth

  • in australia we call a "crutch" a roach. i spose the reason we use em is so you dont waste any bud. we smoke it to the roach. especially if your out on the town. its a bit hard to carry a bong around to drop the end of a joint into the bowl. but once you get used to rolling with roaches its not too bad. especially coz in melbourne public transport tickets are thin cardboard. so you always have one ready to rip up. or we use the lid of the little box of papers.

  • Where I'm from, we call it a malaysian twat. JK.  I dont even use a filter/crutch. I just smoke lick my finger and thumb, and let the burn happen. Crutches can be particularly nasty if you accidentally hit cardboard!

  • I roll the doobie with room left at the end

    roll up the crutch, poke it in and let it unravel

    and then fold one up and put it in the center

    boo yah they work great. You can smoke the whole joint down to the tip

    what's a roach clip? lol

  • Ya I put it in after too, vamsterdam what what

  • Yar, we call them filters. ROACHES are the last little bit you can't smoke without getting smoke in your eyes. SO you put that shit in you pipe/bong and have at her.

  • filter, crutch, roach, lots of different names

  • roll the joint, press the end down, slip filter in the end after removing a tad of weed, sure the joint is a tad smaller but its great with a nice filter rolled up

  • @Dav3 Why take out your dope? Pack it into your j.

  • it takes all of 10 seconds to roll up a crutch and slide it in the end of your joint. ive never rolled a joint without one (canada represent!) . if for some reason someone rolls one without a crutch, the end of the joint gets moist from peoples lips,and a filter sorta prevents that

  • @ScootNoob33 you guys slide it in AFTEr it's rolled? wweeeird..

  • but hey I think it's all about what ur used to + culture, people here (Belgium) think I'm a freak cos I mostly smoke bonghits, meh what you gonna do

  • I use a roach mainly to stop bits of bud from shooting into my mouth haha

  • we call at an amster dam haha

  • You just peel the paper carefully and dump the weed into the bowl.. you don't need to smoke the cardboard. It's not like this is some strenuous extra labour here.

  • it's all about cannabis culture and preferences, however a filter does provide a stable structure for your jay and makes for a better looking cone shaped joint, plus the drag is harder so you can take bigger/harder hits

  • im frum canada and we call em little cardboard fuckers

  • @flannelslipperz You, fine sir, win.

  • WELL WERTE IM FRRUUUUM we call em flilters and you just take the filer out when you wana "roachanate" it dtick it in like a blunt hit it

  • i use crutches with everything, spliffs, joints, L's, blunts.

  • @pkyomama02 what are ls?

  • @11aamiller 2 papers together, you place one rolling paper and another sticked to it on a 45-90 degre angle forming the L letter. Put the weed inside and roll just as a long rolling paper. Called L's usually used on the East sides of North America and Canada..

  • im from cananda we call it a tweet in my town

    and i can honestly say iv never rolled a joint with out one and i guess because iv done it my whole life its easy to me

  • @villiumps i'm from canada as well and we call it filter

  • @IsmurphedHer I'm from africa we call it food

  • @villiumps why would you even consider rolling without? Why would you wanna burn your lips and throw away a perfectly good inch of joint :)?

  • @Lithranain or you could save your roaches and do some generation joints or smoke em like chubbs was talking about

  • @g57yg Smoking weed that has already been used as a filter, a joint made from roaches? That just can't taste good or be healthy. I'd imagine that it's quite the hassle to save roaches aswell, especially if ur not at home, you gotta put em in ur pocket and then ur clothes smell nasty and have ashes in them =s. As far as throwing it in the bong, that could work but you could just as easily use crutches and toss in a nice piece o bud instead of some tarred up piece of crap my 2 cents

  • "stoners on the go" lol

  • fuch Crutches i dont see any purpose for them other than for cones maybe depending on how u roll it

  • @jonnybaze the purpose is that you kan smoke 100% of the joint without burning your lips!!

  • @osscarfransson i can do that without a crutch,it just takes practice and if 1 time u inhale the cardboard,witch always happends its not worth it

  • @jonnybaze it takes praktice to roll a joint with a crutch:D and if you always inhale the cardboard then you suck att rolling!!!!

  • @osscarfransson rolling with a crutch is easier or at least as easy as it is to roll a joint period,its just sligghtly more time consuming and again fuck crutches i dont use them,there pointless but everytime im around someone that is useing 1 i smell cardboard and when i smoke i like to smell chronic,i used a crutch 1 time in a prerolled blunt(its a cone and u stuff it,no rolling at all)and it sucked and ruined everything and i roll the best blunts in the world kid,joints r to easy to mention

  • @jonnybaze dude i looove blunts but i just like crutches becouse thats what i grew up with and if you don like it the fuck you!

  • @jonnybaze crutches or no crutches you would all hit the joint without saying 1 fucking thing

  • @NoMidsForMe what???i would pull the paper right out,ive done it before

  • @jonnybaze huh?

  • @NoMidsForMe u said"crutches or no crutches you would all hit the joint" and no i would not smoke it with a crutch,i would take it out

  • @jonnybaze its all personal preference, I used to smoke a lot of tobacco spliffs with bubble hash and I would put crutches in them. But doesn't matter if ya do or if ya don't, as long as yer getting high its all good

  • my friends use cardbord in his blunts

  • for me rolling a jont with a crutch really doesnt take that much longer at all , for me i have them premade and they make it easier for me to roll the joint

  • I call them crutches i just use plastic or something and crumble it up at the end. I like it better because you are able to smoke all of the marijuana without burning ur fingers or lips and you don't wast anything.

  • The thing with cardboard specially zig zags packaging is that it has printing ink on it. That filter can get pretty warm. I don't really want to suck smoke through that. In America there is no plain white cardboard filters provided to us so we make due.

  • when i have a roach of a blunt or a roach from a jiomt withoutt the filter zig zag paper...i like to throw it in an apple and smoke it from there...toss the apple and im done...

  • @suchadambidiot How do you smoke from an apple??

  • Comment removed

  • @boonhii imaging a pipe make a hole at the top and then do a hole 90degree so the hole connects think of it like an L then light it up

  • yo fuck you its not a canadain are you calling us soft ?

  • crutches save you a little weed...theres always that little bit you cant smoke because your fat little fingers...paper at the end gives you something to hold. no clips and keeps you from having to bring a piece to jam that roach into...i say use the crutch, save the time of cooking a roach in a bowl..if youre going to have to put it in the bong, just use the bong and drop the joint. bong works better anyways.

  • In Netherlands we don't have to worry and feel tence when smoking that's why we can take the (little) time to roll tips ;)

  • @julianjuliet You have the most valid point. In a America, specially in the south west the first weed most kids smoke is mostly schwagg from Mexico rolled up into some cheap papers. You snuck into an alley and just hoped like hell the glue held.

  • notecards work amazingly, and roll it then put in crutch, easier

  • ok that was pretty funny.

  • I agree with sparkmeup420... as I noted in the general comment menu.

  • its easier to roll with a crutch.

    takes the same amount of time to do both.

    rolling the cardboard doesnt take 10mins either.

  • chubbs im a patient at the nuggetry and i would love to challenge you in rolling a joint ill use the crutch and well see who can get it lit and smoking the fastest  haha

  • i love crutches!

  • Comment removed

  • Crutches are good because without one, sometimes the tail end gets a little closed off due to saliva and resin build up. Crutches prevent that quite well, giving you an extremely clear pull all the way through. A properly rolled American style joint is still great though. iHeart Pot.

  • iam an american in europe but to go back to without filter tipswould not work with my jay's no more and u could pull the cardboard out

  • i call them tips

  • No no no, yes roll one without the cardboard coz its faster, im not waiting either, however, after that take a piece of cardboard from either ur cigs or orange zags, and make a crutch that u can use to kill the J so that there is no roach, then throw away the crutch or use it again and again-solves all probs, u can still throw ur roach in the bowl if u want. It doesnt hinder, change taste, or heat up this way!

  • crutches are so legit. They let you smoke all of the bud and not really have any weed left in the roach.
