The Lollipop 24 is the biggest in our Lollipop line. Oh sure, 24 inch balloons are common. But, this one has a mind-blowingly long neck. Like all our other balloons, these are handmade. The former is dipped as far into the latex as possible to get the longest neck possible. If you like long necks, this one delivers.

To inflate the long neck that these balloons have, you can follow these simple instructions.
Hold the body of the balloon in such a way as to prevent it from inflating.
Inflate the neck of the balloon fully. Then release the air.
Repeat step one again for a second time
On the third time, hold the body until the neck fully inflates, then let the body go and inflate as normal
If the neck shrinks back as the body inflates, keep inflating until the body gets big. Then you can stop inflating and push down on the body of the balloon to push air back into the neck. Then, top off with a little more air if desired.
Kyle –
This is the big, buff brother of the legendary CTI 22” Neon Punchball – with no strings attached – and I freaking love it.
I can’t overstate the amount of air TBV balloons can take, and how big they grow on repeated inflations – I have one of these blown to what I think is its absolute max and it’s probably from the floor to my chin. I’m sure it’d still take the challenge of another generous ride on the pump without flinching. I’m already looking forward to deflating it and seeing if I can grow this one to twice its size – or if it goes wrong, hear how loud this sucker is when it pops.
This is fun to inflate both ways. The safer method of repeated neck inflations that are rewarded with probably the most ridiculously long neck you’ve ever seen, or the more exhilarating ‘punchball’ method of blowing it to it’s absolute max and then watching the neck shoot out just shy of it bursting.
Of course, the most fun method of getting that neck stretched is to blow the bulb up to the max and jump on it to watch the neck shoot out, or if you’ deserved it – watch it explode beneath the pressure. Though, trust me, the strength and stretchiness of these giants have meant needing an incredible force to pop them so far so if thats what you want, you’ll need to try with all your might.
The big difference between the lollipops and the wide necks is that if you are sitting on the neck it will shrink and the air will go into the main body of the balloon because the neck is much thinner than the body, whereas a wide neck that generally easily keeps air in both the bulb and its wide neck. If you’re brave, that can be easily solved by inflating it to the point that you’re sure it’s going to pop so that the air in both is stretching the latex incredibly thin on the bulb and the neck, and I can assure you, it’ll still take your weight even then!
like all of the tbv balloons the smell is amazing and the colours are beautiful. They truly are unique works of art.
