If anyone has dyed a swerve, can you tell me if the removeable inserts for the sidewall dye normally like the head itself. Because the inserts feel almost rubbery and im not sure if it will dye.

why not keep the detachable things white, and make it look like the ball is really in there

That is basically defeating the point of the head. Its meant to look like there is no ball in there. It hides it from the defender.

u see the ball through the mesh, so arent the inserts piontless?

i could be wrong, i have a swerve and the pocket is deep enough where you cant see any of the ball where the inserts would go.

Yeah it seems like a pretty stupid idea. I guess if a defender takes a quick look he won't see the ball. I don't know. Ask mikey for me.

or, you could work on getting fakes that work, and realize its the throwing motion, not the trickery of the head that gets a defender to look away. the only fakes that really work anyway are when they are close in on your hands and you step away and throw a non-exagerated box fake or pump fake.

you should be able to dye them because the little inserts on the pg. with mikey sponsering scion have neon green inserts meaning he dyed them himself.(mikey with a buzz cut doesnt not look cool)
