I can't ever go back to combustion after vaping - the taste with vaping is just phenomenal. I love starting with a terpene hit.

I don't feel like I've lost anything - maybe it's because I use a Dynavap so it's vaguely joint shaped, still has a burning hot end you have to be careful with, and it requires some amount of skill if you're using a torch. So I have the ritual of getting out my weed container. Packing the bowl. Then lighting the flame and turning turning till the clicks.... Still feels very satisfying to me. And I still use it with a bong.

That and how much higher I can get from vaping with less bud too.

EDIT: Oh and let's not forget AVB!
