The THC is actually not soluble in water, but it doesnt matter so much. If the water can cool down the smoke until it be at a temperature lower than THC boiling point, it will condensate.

This process happens mostly at the surface of the smoke bubbles when they pass through the water, and thats why some of THC reaches our lungs... because even if the surface of the smoke bubbles passing through the water lose its THC, the middle of the bubbles are hot enough for allowing the THC to be gaseous. When the bubbles reach the surface of the water and collapse, the THC of its middle is released, and we smoke it.
