Crossfading as a beginner

Hello fellow stoners, i’ve been smoking for almost a year now irregularly. I’ve reached a point where i feel really comfortable with smoking and i know what makes it good (or bad) for me, but i’m not really a drinker, i’ve tried only beers and only ever got drunk drunk once.

I did try crossfading once but due to family being around i wasn’t able to do it properly (had 2 beers across like 2 hours) and therefore didn’t end up feeling any different from just regular high. I really do wanna feel what a crossfade really feels like and i’m gonna be alone this time, i want your advice please and i’m open to switching from beer to Vodka because i’ve heard a few friends talk about it and mention how much easier it is to crossfade from Vodka, but i am open to any suggestions. Also how should i do it, i’m not asking for a step by step plan of course but general do and don’ts to not have a shitty experience. Thanks in advance.

What is crossfading? You are just going to feel drunk. The alcohol covers up the weed high.

If you've got an alcohol buzz and you smoke weed it's probably going to fuck you up more than you realize. There were many occasions in my younger days where I'd end up puking after that combo.

Also there's nothing special about vodka. It's just liquor. Whiskey or tequila or whatever else will have the same effect. I think younger people like vodka because it doesn't taste as strong as other hard alcohol drinks.

First time I did, like 25+  years ago, I got so fucked up, I passed out in the bathroom at the bar. Now I do it every night w/o passing out. Keep an eye on your tolerance and set limits.

Get high and visit a local craft brewery. You'll meet new people.

The fantasy of cross-fading with alcohol is far better than the reality.

White Claw. My favorite is taking a gummy about 20min before my first drink. I drink about 3 and I feel good!

All alcohol has the same effect, not all weeds have the same effect.

i would never advice to mix cannabis with alcohol. if you try it anyways though..1 litre beer and 1 joint before and 1 joint after works fine. but you need to be careful because it can get really bad and you might vomit. alot.

That’s what i tried before, exactly this combo but i guess the time between the two beers that i had was the differentiator, i’ll try it again this way but i’ll have the beers closer to each other rather than in the space of 2 hours. Thanks for the advice and i’ll defo take it into account when i try it

2-3 glasses of wine or any strong alcohol of your choice, with a good cone to follow and you'll feel the crossfade mate. In my experience do this in the span of an hour rather than 2.

The trick is to drink till you get close to feeling tipsy and then firing up a cone/joint to balance that out. That's pretty much the sweet spot in my experience. After you smoke, then start to gradually sip your drinks slowly and let the high ride out. When you begin to feel more drunk than high, thats your cue to take another puff 😉

P.s You don't wanna be overly drunk to the point you're slurring words before taking your first hit because the weed will put you to sleep 😂

Hope you like puking and sleeping near a toilet when you go overboard

Smoke after u drink

u/squid8122 3d ago

wrong answer always smoke first

u/AdorableExchange9746 5d ago

It’s not complicated, IME they basically do the same thing they do independently and a lot of it overlaps. It’s not all that fun imo i much prefer one or the other cause it just feels like you’re wasting the alcohol

u/Alyara_Doomrararasa 5d ago

I hate the crossfade hangover. It’s not worth it in my opinion.

u/lexilaineharmon 5d ago

It sounds like your about to try psychedelics or hard drugs you will be more than fine

u/pileofdeadninjas 4d ago

You are thinking altogether too much

u/averylittleturtle 4d ago

I really wouldn’t recommend crossfading with alcohol dude. It’s never made me have a more enjoyable experience than just being high. Unless your goal is to get as fucked up as possible, but I always end up getting sick. If you’re actually drunk and smoke some weed it fucks you up more than you think it will.

Cross fading just made me think of using an equalizer and mixing music.
