Tips & Warnings
Some beach balls have air valves to prevent air from escaping when the spout is open. Inflating this type of ball is similar to inflating a non-valve ball, except there's no need to plug the spout with your tongue as you inhale. Instead, gently squeeze the base of the spout with your fingers or teeth as you exhale and release your grip while you inhale.

Put the deflated beach ball in the dryer- the hotter the better! This softens all the plastic, mouth piece, closing piece and ball itself allowing more expansion of the ball and easy closure! WORKS LIKE MAGIC! I had 360 4 inch balls to inflate! This removed all the wrinkles from packaging as well.

Umm....I think you have to get a jar, stand on your roof, and trap the air into the jar.

I have a few questions. Where do i get the air from? And do I plug the spout with my tongue before or after I open my mouth?
