They are slim, so you don't end up smoking all paper. If the regular joint is about one gram of cannabis flower, a pinner would be a half or even a third of a gram. The term pinner' is in reference to a sewing pin and applies to any small, tightly rolled joint that is thin and straight, unlike most joints that are bigger and rolled into cones. Gizeh Fine Extra Slim papers are my personal go-to if rolling a pinner. A pinner is slang for a small, thin joint. Papers that work great for the job are: Pay-pay, Roor (their regular papers, not the hemp or rice variants). They aren't the best papers for the job, due to the paper being a little too thin. The joint in the photo is likely a Raw paper, which is a hemp, free-burning paper, so it will work.
You want a free-burning paper, as opposed to a slow-burning paper. Oh, the solution to pinner joints? It's actually the paper. Therefore, they actually take a bit of practice to pull off, let alone one rolled as nicely as the one in this photo. Unlike a girthier joint, the margins between too tight and too loose is very narrow. But roll it too tight and you will be using your torch/lighter for every strained puff. If the joint is too loose, the whole thing will disappear in 3-5 puffs which defeats the purpose of a pinner. If you are an intermediate roller, the tendency is to want to roll the joint a little looser than normal but that creates a worse problem than if the joint was just too tight. The reason why a thin joint is more difficult to keep lit is that a joint needs a bit of girth to fuel the cherry and there is a lot less of it in a thin joint. The main benefit of smoking a pinner is that the smoke lasts longer than if you had rolled a stubby. Pinners, that actually smoke properly, are one of the hardest joints to actually roll. Mad respect for the pinner, I have rolled 1000's in my day and I love them.
