How to lace a football Wilson GST style. Refurbish your old football for $5 with Wilson replacement bladder and laces. This is Wilson GST with tacky pebble style laces.
*BY FAR* the hardest part of this operation is getting the valve to pull through the hole in the carcass. I was successful on the first football. On the 2nd, it wouldn't pull through and bits of it kept breaking off until there was nothing left to grab hold of, rendering the bladder no good. Had to throw it away.
Hi, I need to buy the laces, do you sell? or know who they sell? I did not find the repair option on Wilson's website, I live in Brazil. I have 15 balls needing to change the laces.
do they still do this? I cant find ANY info that says wilson will repair or even send you repair laces and what not. Im just blindly sending in my ball with a check?
Guys, does anyone know why football keeps leaking, cause i got the bladder out and inflated it, and the bladder itself does not leak, but when it is inside the actual football, it starts deflating again.
Thanks for that response, i just ordered one of each from wilson. Will they send me black laces for the gst? I emailed them and they said they only offer white, when i asked about other colors.
It is actually a baseball glove lacing tool that I purchased at Sports Authority I sanded down the sharp edges and rounded it off so it would not damage the bladder of the football
