Start with a 260, inflate leaving a one half inch tail, measure the head for a hat, and make a feather hat. Take the second 260, inflate leaving a one half inch tail, lock twist a one inch bubble onto the hat at the opposite end from the feather. This leaves you with a triangle with half of a 260 sticking out from it. Take the leftover 260 and form it into a loop , or basket, lock twist it. For the back board, take the third 260, inflate leaving a one inch tail, twist a six inch bubble, then a one inch bubble.
Ear twist the one inch bubble.
Repeat this at the other end of the balloon. You end up with a six inch bubble, an ear twist, a long bubble, an ear twist and a six inch bubble. Attach the backboard to the hat, where the hoop is formed by twisting the small bubbles together. Then just straighten the whole thing up. Insert a Hi bounce ball in the four inch orange balloon, inflate, tie off and draw basketball lines on it.
