    Hillbilly Pinch

    So I was thinking is there a lot users who uses lös like this way to just take a pinch
    on fingers and throwing it on lip or are you using prismaster or ice tool or maybe cutted syringe?

    I must say i prefer baking it by hands but if I have change i can use an Ice tool sometimes.

    I pinch mostly at home. At work or out in polite company for a day I'll take my Icetool. Mainly to keep my hands clean. Most times I hillbilly/farmer pinch, baking takes to long.

      I hand bake with my fingers no palm, I tried the homemade icetool with a syringe (5ml) but it made the pris too large in diameter.

        i always use my 3mm ss icetool with los...so much so that i bought another 3mm ss icetool as a backup.

        its just soo much easier for me to use the icetool.....a perfect 2-click pris takes me less than 10 seconds to make and start enjoying

          I have a ss 3ml Icetool and I love it when my hands are in something nasty.

          Otherwise, I pinch a bit, give it one or two squeezes with my fingertips and go.

            Old habits die hard. I treat it just like copenhagen, except that I'll move it to the upper deck w/ my tongue.

                I pinch/kinda bake with my fingers. At work I constantly have messy hands, and usually stuff you don't want in your mouth at all, so I just use portions. I would try a tool, but use my finger to swipe the wad out of my mouth anyway, so what's the point?

                  It depends. I hillbilly it when I know I won't be able to keep my snus in for a long time and I want fast nic absorbtion, or when I'm in a hurry or fishing. I use an icetool when I'm at work and want a nicely compacted snus that will last a long tme and avoid sliding into my teeth too soon. I also use an icetool at home because it really makes a can last longer as I can measure my snus.

                    I tend to use the icetool most of the time. I like the ritual of it and I tend to use more when I handbake, that said if the icetool is more than two feet away I hillbilly.

                      I just do mediocre hand bakes. If it somewhat resembles a pellet, I throw it in my mouth. When I first started using los, I spent time trying to give the prilla a perfect shape. With time I learned it doesn't matter.

                        +1 but I still like to make a perfect one when time allows.

                          This is about the Finnish snus law amendment on finnish news. They planned a total ban on snus.
                          There is a part where man pinches snus in a real hillbilly way. They also interview some finnish youngsters and ask what do they think about snus and the law.

                            Mostly I use my Icetool, but there are times that I'll just pinch it up, smash it against the inside of the can and pop it in my upper lip. I like doing it too because the taste comes on quicker as does the nic hit, guess it's due to the loose prilla.

                              I agree. Too long baking is for kids.
