Could be your hands - could be the papers you are using - if your not using Rizlas then I'd recommend them. make sure the gum is wet enough to stick aswell.
Let me know how you get on

I had thatt trouble but...

I used to have that trouble sometimes coz of clammy hands.
But have u tried using a rolling mat?
So much easier!! and don't hav to worry bout clammy hands.
rolling 12 skin (king skin - rizla) coners n stuff now.
much longer than this and hard to toke
got some very good layout patterns for some very fun spliffs too.
All the best mate and remember practice makes perfect!
Gives you an excuse to smoke more! lol
an idea

hey rolling isnt a natural knack i dont think, it is a skill that everyone can learn. for the beginner practice is essential, try using little ksins at first to perfect single skins just with rolling tobacco for example, then move ont normal red kings, your basic heavy weight skin, easier to recover from errors with these, once you are proficient with the reds go straight for the blue slims, my hands also go abit funny sometimes but i lick my fingers to get a added grip, you must be able to control the spliff as it is born. a perfect cone is not essential so concentrate on working your way up to been satisfactory with blue slims, then you can omve on to trying burnoffs etc .
as for rolling mates, they wicked e3specially when you smoking ina group, but i would only reccomend a rolling mat or machine for someone who didnt want to be able to roll, you must learn young disciple.
good luck
happy toking
peace

i used to have a real problem with getting my paper to stick down but then i stopped using rizzlas if it was possible and tried to get zig zags or swans. if nobodys ever tried em, i really reccomend the blue swan rolling papers. extra large of course.

be sure to have your joint real tight in your fingers before licking . u should have your joint roll almost completely leaving only the place where u lick.

yeah thats what i do. i roll it so far that when i lick the gum i actually have to roll it backwards a little bit so my tongue can reach all the gum.

Yeah I was the same, but after a lot of practise I got good at them, but like yesty i brought a rolling machine and it is unreal, i can never roll joints if im already stoned so like this machine is great for that, dont worry aboutt taking the easy way out man, go for the rolling machine if ya want, it makes 'em heaps easier to roll. Keep smoking

you say you got good after lots of practise, i dont need practise. i dun mean to sound arrogant but my spliffs are as good as anybodys. thats unless you like the stupid long things that students smoke. theyre perfectly straight all the way to the top. cone it jus right so its exactly the same on both sides. roach never comes out or any of that shit. the only thing i could put the problem with the gum down to is the roach bulging and trying to open up. anyways. im going through a bubble pipe phase at the moment so i have no need to roll. peace out.

Have you tried licking the back of the paper instead? Thats how I roll mine, just get it all rolled how you want it, then lick from the roach to the twist on the outside of the paper. Never fails.

as it happens, jus before i read what you wrote (anex), i had a spliff. when i rolled it i licked the back of the gum instead and it worked a treat. jus proves what an excellent suggestion you made.

why not just take the tobbaco out of a normal cigga then replace it with the weed, perfect everytime
