Nice necks

[phenix]

Nice! I think sempertex may be rapidly becoming my new favourite loons.

18" was hard and popped fast enough. Tuftex 17" are much better.
And 12" easily reached 14" and gave excellent neck. That one I bursted beautifully by sit2 pop, and another blow2pop 😏

First experience with Sempertex. 18" and 12" 😈

I received my parcel of long-neck balloons from Kathy in Italy. The unprinted ones are exactly like the RCR fluted from long ago. They are quite durable and re-inflate quite well after a shrink and Talc. Worth every penny. Expensive Q24" have nothing in comparison to how huge these necks and get. The mold radius is ideal as the stretch between the bulb and fluted neck is balanced ....with little chance for premature pop. ~gp

Does it count if it’s not tied? I blew this 12 inch one up this morning but was too afraid it would pop when tied so I let the air out...

I've been experimenting with 18" belbal punch balloons. After a few casualties, I've managed to get some very decent necks.

There are Belbal punch balloons?

Yeah, I got them from UK Looners. Not sure I like them. They look amazing when necked but smell really weird. Balloon Ace do a pack of 18" cattex punch balloons, so might give them a go next.

Shared these on other threads yesterday, but thought they were worthy of 'nice necks'. Love that this thread is still alive after 7 years! When the punchball popped it left the neck intact, so I blew it up again and got another 💥 out of it!

The last ones I bought from them were out of date - the latex had started to break down and they all popped after one of two breaths.

From recent. Tuftex 17" and Gemar 13" 😉
