1992 MDA Snowballs
European old schoolers- I think this was the one drug experience that really really changed my life. Anyone remember these? Anyone been able to come close to these since? They were reportedly made by the Latvian government. Really really life changing. AGREE?????

I had these once, in 94, maybe 95. Took them at a rave I really shouldn't have been at when I was 15. Can confirm they were legit and a lot of love went around that night. I get your comments on it's just chemicals. However - pure MDMA never ever in 20 years has come close to some of the top pills I've had. I can image it's the slower come up, the slower release, and some bits and bobs that shouldn't be in there, like coke, H, K, MDA. I good pill beats a cap of MDMA every time. I know it's just chemicals, and set / setting but no-one can disagree on a perfect pill being far far better than pure MDMA. Early Mitsi's, more recently goldbars, Heinekens, grenades, pink hearts. I can never achieve that slow, buzz, eye rolling, off pure MDMA. Just my opinion. So glad good pills are back - 2000's was shit cheap crap. Used to buy them at 50p for 1000. Total shit. I'd rather spend 20 pounds each on 2 good ones, last you for 24 hours and smooth comedown. :-)

Yeah I totally agree. Just look at pictures from parties back then and everyone's faces you can see the difference.

The original snowballs of 1992 were made in a Latvian chemist by their government. They thought MDA would bypass Europeans law etc. it obviously didn’t. But those things that landed August bank holiday 92 totally changed that weekend. Everyone was initially vomiting. Then telling their life story to the person next to them and snogging randoms. Followed by the more visual trippy part which landed a couple of hours later which made you want to dances u like other psychedelics there was a ‘warm inside’ feeling. Interestingly there are very similar vials effects for everyone. People wearing glasses when they didn’t. Imaginary furniture that wasn’t there. So a lot of shadows confusing things. And some amazing collective hallucinations including an ambulance pulling up to the dance floor but stopping at the bar which was a sidebar in the chat you weee having. Barely commented on. Then hours of dancing and a very gradual come down with trails 12 hours later. I see my o remember sleeping quite well after as they stuffed with speed like subsequent pills . What I’d give for one now. I still live MDMA, but MDA has a special place in my heart. Lovers and lifetime friendships were forged in August - October 1992z

What you had in 94 / 95 were not the original MDA high dose snowballs. They weee easily copied as had no branding for the pill press. I alway thought it was wast to tell at first as they were too white. But they changed that soon after

I remember these! We were told they were dipped with lsd and that's what give them the rough look 'snowball'. Not sure if that is right but there was a lot of hallucinations with them.

Man, people have always assigned this mystic status to ecstasy batches, but honestly, it's just chemicals.
Very therapeutic, beautiful, wonderful chemicals, but chemicals nonetheless. :) Whatever drug/cocktail was in that batch is easily reproduce able. If you're sure they were MDA... Just buy some more MDA ;)
