We burst our big yellow ball in practice last night and desperatly needed another to continue testing our pick up system, so we took a yellow ball from last years game and over infated it to size “30 inches”

We were wondering about doing this the other day…
Can you tell me how much psi does it take to inflate the yellow balls from last years’ game to size “30 inches”?
And I am wondering how will the “over inflated” balls react under stress… How about the hot weather over at Florida? Can you provide a little more details of the process so that we can successfully duplicate the result over here at west coast?
Do tell.

I dont know the PSI but I recomend that you stop just prior to the " BBBBBBBAAAAAAAANG ".
Let me know when you try yours so I can be out side to see if I can hear it from here…
