Possible event: VapeMeet San Francisco Bay Area - Interested?

[sofauxboho]

It feels like vaping is finally taking off in San Francisco!

Who'd be interested in a vapemeet? I've been talking to a few friends and a couple vendors, and we're thinking about putting one on.

Three questions for you:

1. Would you be interested in attending a vaping event in San Francisco, CA?
2. What is your current level of vaping experience? (Newbie, Medium, Advanced, Let me show you this mod I built)
3. What do you want from a local vaping event?

 

[Joe944]

I would certainly be interested in going. I don't know too many vapers, so it would be a good opportunity to meet up and share knowledge.

I'm a somewhat advanced vaper, just started using RBA's.

 

[ScarletAbby]

I'd sign up too! I'll be interested in meeting veteran vapers, to know how they storage their eliquids during the hot summer months and what places allow vaping, yeah I'd love to go. I'm a newbie by the way.

 

[Mrrickyyap]

Keep me posted. I have a few friends here in sf that would come.

 

[Loren_Q]

I'm interested as long as the veterans don't make fun of my cig-alike. Hey, I like it, I'm happy with it and I just go my eGo VV.

I'm a noob and I'm most interested in meeting vapers & vendors. Talk about juices, etc.

 

[eratikmind]

I would be highly interested in such an event. Hopefully, I am in town when this happens. I would love to prod the minds of RBA vaporers.

I would not worry about that. We are all in the same boat, so to speak.

 

[LisaR]

My husband and I would be interested in going. I'd say we're Medium Experienced vapers. We'd like to meet some local vapers, find out about products, and find out more about local (or semi-local) vape shops.

 

[Cycles Gladiator]

I'd be very interested in going. I'm still a newbie, but learning more and more. School takes up most of my time, but if I'm free I'd definitely do the 90 minute drive for it. I'd be interested in meeting with more experienced vapors, venders - but mainly for juices (I have my set up for now and need to save money) and a community to talk with.

 

[severin]

I'd be decently interested, though, I'm not sure exactly what one even does at a vapemeet.

I'm sorta intermediate I guess, using a mechanical+genesis most of the time.

 

[BabyBatter]

I'm definitely interested! Curious to where this could possibly be held. Perhaps a local vendor would be willing to hold such an event so there would be no public vaping issues? I'm still a noob but already looking into mechanical mods and rba's.

 

[Berylanna]

I'm interested. I'm MORE interested if it can happen in time to do some kind of event for the media BEFORE California gets a bill signed that makes vaping == smoking.

I guess ViVi Nova is just short of being an RBA.

One problem with S.F. is they have supposedly made laws that vaping = smoking in SF, so no restaurant owners even have the OPTION of being vape-friendly. We might try Daly City or San Bruno, both cities are immediately adjacent to SF on the south.

I'm out of the area Apr 19- May 4.

I go to a lot of assorted events such as SciFi conventions where we take over a small motel or 7 huge hotels in a business district on a holiday weekend -- because the hotels BADLY need the revenue on the weekend and give us a great rate. The smallest I went to was a
"Filk" meet at a motel with a coffee shop inside.

The most vape-friendly places for daytime use I've found are pubs, especially if they are British- or Irish- owned. Taking-up-space friendly places include "banquet rooms" in assorted Pizza parlors, Coco's, etc-type places. You'd be surprised how many have back rooms.

 

[eratikmind]

I'll be heading back to LV in a couple of weeks. I hope this happens before then.

[richoki]

This sounds great! I live in Downtown and I frequent a couple bars in the area (Tradition on Jones, Local Editon on Market & Playland on Polk) and they allow vaping indoors. It's a beautiful thing.

I consider myself to be a medium/advanced user. I've recently stepped into the world of mechanical mods & drip tanks, but I'm in love with my RBAs.

I hope we can make this happen!

 

[bazmonkey]

I'm also down. I'd call myself intermediate. I'd be there mostly to try juice and see gadgets I would have trouble running into otherwise.

 

[BabyBatter]

I wonder if the Bay Area or even NorCal will catch up with SoCal's vape scene. Their brick and mortars carry all the nice stuff (high end mechanicals, RBA's, etc)

Well, a B&M tatoo and hookah and smokeless shop that only had 3 $85 brand-Z single-battery kits last year is all eG0s and/or clones and nice clearos and nova knockoffs. Lotta vv. And NOW they know the names of stuff!

 

[cheleliu]

I'd be interested in attending! I would consider myself a newbie..and it would be great to meet up with more experienced vapors! Sacramento finally opened a B&M shop Vapor Parlor..so I'm really hoping us NorCal folks will get a vaping scene like I've seen in SoCal!

 

[LuV2SkRaTcH]

i think that would be cool, i'd be down to go if i'm around. i'm not sure what places would be vape friendly, because i also heard of that law that passed in that county... however, i would consider myself a intermediate/advanced vaper. if i had a job, i'd probably be much more advanced. haha! i'm going to try to get a job at Vape shop and see how that goes!

Cheleliu, i stopped by Vapor Parlor also!

Nice to know about more vape friendly bars in SF. I work in the Financial District, I hate that when some call it FiDi, but Local Edition is not too far. I'm interested in a meet up as well. They have held a vape meet at Tasty Vapers B&M last year.
