This past 4/20 was the demise of my previous bong (talk about a day for a break) and finally decided it to was time to grab something really nice. My previous bong was a GEAR, 7mm thick - and while it was an alright bong, I was craving something a little more high-end. There is very little heady glass available in Canada; if any at all, so my trip was bound to lead me south of the border.
After a few weeks of talking to some helpful people online and convincing myself it was time to take the plunge on something, I setup a date to go to Buffalo and check out Headin' to Hertel, a shop about 2 hours away that I had heard quite a bit about.
Well, all the good feedback about H2H is well-deserved - they have a killer shop setup with some of the sickest glass I've ever laid eyes on. With the limited supply of high-end glass in Canada and this place not too far away, this is definitely my new destination of choice. :)
Anyways, ended up picking up a 13/13 Toro along with a nice Ryot case for the tube and a Mike Fro slide to match the worked section on this tube, here's a few pictures of the tube:

All in all, extremely satisfied with the purchase! Just makes me want a few more, haha. Really pleased with how it hits compared to anything I have used in the past - it's a night & day difference, really. Anyone on the fence about getting one of these, just buy it and don't look back!
