Which Type of Carb Do You Prefer On Your Bong: Pull or Finger?

I wanted to take a survey of smokers preference for clearing a bong filled with smoke.
So, What type of carb do you prefer on a bong, a pull-carb or a finger carb?
If you don't know already, a "pull carb" is a removable bowl-and-stem piece that you pull-out of the female downpipe in a bong, so air can enter the water then into chamber (for clearing a hit after filtering the smoke in water) faster than with the stem inserted. As for the "finger-carb", that is simply a hole located near the bottom of the tube chamber and you cover with a finger on to allow a vacuum during the smoke-thru-water filtration process and uncover to allow the chamber filled with smoke to quickly enter the user's lungs.
My preference is by FAR the finger-carb, since it clears the smoke so quickly and cleanly (there is no bubbling of air into the water like in the pull-carb, just a fast 'whoosh!' of air).
So, what's your preference?

Pull of course. Nothing's more satisfying than that loud gurgle.

I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

I have to say, I am quite surprized that people here prefer pull-carbs over finger-carbs. I never would have guessed that in my hypothesis before starting this "survey" of TheGrowery.
I have to agree with TripityDooDaDay about the "fingering the bong", I LOVE doing that. Especially when its dripping wet from bong water leaking out its smooth-drilled hole. Feels SOOO good on my soft finger Tip (total boing!).

Hmmm. I think you may be getting carried away with that thought a bit. If you wanna make love to the thing then the pull is the better way to go. The finger hole is more for the quickie sort of bang. Learn how and when to love your bong and your bong will show it in return.

Well-said my virtual friend, making love to the bong IS the thing to do. Thanks! I will have to try it sometime, right for the pull-carb, back-door style!

glass bongs with finger carbs suck fucking dick. you can never clear the whole hit because the smoke stays in the downstem. disgusting.
dont get the bong just cuz its cheap. spend a little extra and get one that actually hits well.

youve clearly never hit a nice bong if you think a finger carb is better. go hit a ROOR, and then tell me what you like.

well it goes both ways for me. I have both. I have a PHX trinity and also have a Hurricane and I got to say i enjoy the hurricans convenient carb. once you take your finger off the carb it clears the bong almost instantly.

That's what I'm talking about psychedelic teddy bear! That's what I love about glass bongs with finger-carbs: instant chamber clear.
Also, I notice the hit "hits" me harder with the rush from the insta-clearing action of the finger-carb compared to the slower bubble-lag of the pull-carb, but that's just my subjective opinion...

Sorry, but I like the pull.
Glass on glass sounds awesome when you pull.

Its not an "instant chamber clear" when the fucking downstem still has smoke in it. Do you not understand this concept or are you just that dense?
