We used chewed up, almost dried bubble gum to get it out when it happened to us.
Good Luck! If the needle is still in the valve, let the air all bleed out and push it through once the ball is flat enough. If the needle has fallen through and is rattling around inside, you'll wreck the ball trying to get it out. Play on--it won't hurt a thing.
by pushing it
A basketball is typically filled with air to achieve the proper level of inflation for optimal bouncing and handling during play. Some basketballs may also contain a small amount of liquid for weight distribution and balance.
you need a balloon and a needle like a pump needle or a cooking needle. blow the balloon up to the max and use a paperclip to keep the air in the balloon. then cut off the tip of the balloon. afterwards use it to keep the needle in the balloon then put the needle in the ball take the clip off and wait. it might not inflate it all the way up but it will do some good until you get a real pump.
no
Just regular air.
You either cut a hole, or when you pump the ball, put the tube in and then when it is almost out, leave it there. It should make a hissing sound and you should be able to feel some air blowing. you kill it with a kitchen knife you pop it or take the needle outof the pump to blow it up and just leave it in the basketball
You can try using a straw to inflate the basketball by inserting it into the air valve and blowing air through the straw. Another option is to attach the air valve of the basketball to a hair dryer on cool setting to inflate it. Be cautious not to overinflate the basketball to prevent damage.
The same thing happened to me. You will just need to go out there and buy a new needle or pump and needle. The first time it broke for me, but I am able to take it back for a new one because it is not working properly. So, if you are able to, return it or just buy another one.
An air pump they come with a needle that can stick in the ball (if it doesn't come with one you can pay). Or air compressors sometimes work with a needle for it too
Symptoms of a broken heat pump can vary. They can include a drop in temperature, leaks, and noises.
Inflating a basketball with an air pump is a physical change because it does not involve any change in the chemical composition of the materials involved. The air is simply being forced into the ball, causing it to expand and increase in volume, but the fundamental chemical makeup of the ball remains the same.
this is a workshop air compressor
We just bought a Chevy venture and the air pump in in the back on the drivers side behind a little door under the window. You can attach a hose/needle and pump up tires, balls, inflatables etc. Hope this helps.
