How to twist a balloon - balloon twisting basics tutorial

Learn the basics of balloon twisting with this step by step easy to follow video tutorial.
Here are few things you need to know before you twist a balloon:
* I recommend Inflating the balloon using a pump - see another video about it here: • How to inflate a model...
* Next, I recommend you to watch my video tutorial - How to make a balloon dog: • How to make a balloon ...
Here are some more tips about balloon twisting for beginners:
* Start to twist the balloon from the beginning of the balloon (from the side that has a knot)
* pinch the balloon with your finger and thumb at the place you want to create the twist.
* Roll the last part of the balloon 3 or 4 times.
* For the second twist you will need to place the first twist between your pinky finger and your ring finger.
* Pinch the balloon again with your finger and thumb (that are now free again)
* Continue creating more twists in the balloon, but after each twist, keep on holding the two ends of the balloon so it won't come undone.
* In order to stop holding the balloon you have to create a "lock" in the balloon
* A lock is made by twisting 2 (or more) twists together.

What is the balloon size please?
1 inch or 2 inch diameter?
TIA

[@BalloonArtOnline]

This is a 260 balloon, that means, it's width (diameter) is 2 inches and it's length is 60 inches

[@MonkeMan1022]

I twist just how you show me, but when I twist to many twists, the tail of the balloon starts shrinking, can you help with that?

[@syedshafiqueahmed8915]

While twisting my balloons always burst, pop ups. Please advise how I can avoid popping. Thanks.

[@BalloonArtOnline]

That's probably because you're using old bag of balloons. Old balloons tend to pop much more

[@DanielSmith-ix9vg]

Also, Barak’s technique keeps the twisting balloons from rubbing together which reduces popping. Buy quality balloons, not all the same. Finally, balloons always pop, so say things into the balloon when blowing it up, so when it pops and the air comes out, those words escape, “ohhhh noooo” ;-)

[@thefrogwhoscreams]

@@DanielSmith-ix9vg i wish that would work but thats not how balloons work lol
