Wtf! There's a British musical firework championships? How am I only just finding out about this. I wish I could get the remote firing system for bonfire night and new years eve fireworks, but I don't fancy the police smashing my door in.

We were there watching, amazing displays both nights. Just watched Wayne's video which led me here. Amazing how much work goes into a display like that, soooo many fireworks! Assume its computer controlled show? That photo at 14.59 looks technical, is that what controls the show? :)
@localpyroАй бұрын
@@richardpengley6870 Yeah we use a system called “Fire One” it uses a hard wired setup rather than WiFi (radio) so it’s very accurate & all controlled by software. Glad you enjoyed the shows, Wayne’s vid was very good & his shop has lots of goodies 😀

That bonfire opening was awesome thats how its done, cracking bonfire as well! Monster trucks and fireworks hell yeah nice! Oh wow that was one incredible fireworks display that white stobe section was beautiful! Some absolutely magnificent shells the red srobes that were going back to ground the brocade crowns and the nishiki willows hangtime was amazing! Then the salutes and what sounded like ground maroons oooffff thats what im talking about! Then ghost shells damn, im not sure what the others are called but theyre awesome as well! Im usually not a fan of music and fireworks especially when the music is louder, drowns out the boom, but in this theyve been playing some decent tunes haha! Id still prefer without music but this was a good choice of tunes. Pan left pan right.. 🤯 thats a hugeeee area coverage that showed the true size scale! Shame about there not being enough breeze to take the smoke out, amazing still non the less! The lights doing the mexican wave was trippy that was cool! Willow madnessss yessss beautiful! Shame they had to slow the show but it cant be helped. This is a malfunction 😂 class. Those ring shells were really nice. Oh my god that finale was on another level holy sh*t absolutely mesmerising i bet thats one hell of aexperience I definitely need to go to this! Cracking video mate nice work!

@localpyro oh they do two I thought it was just the one, that's even better. The one in August sounds perfect ill definitely be trying to get down next year! I did see it mate, it was a brilliant display but I can't lie it wasn't my cup of tea I'm not sure why I like some and not others but it's very rare for me to enjoy them with any music.

@pyrotechclips yeah, no worries I was a bit concerned about the amount of sync that we did in that show, but we chucked the kitchen sink into the finale 😁 tbh I would like us to start doing daytime shows, no music but rhythmic firing n that’s a whole different discipline.

Great idea to let the little ones light bits on the firing system I bet they absolutely loved that! Shame the signature candle didn't work and you didn't check it before dunking but safety first. Really nice selection some brilliant products there, looks like a great backyard display mate! I'm definitely going to have to pick up some of those invader rockets and those insanity rockets they sound class. I've seen the videos of those blattertanz those are unbelievable rockets! Those funke crackle pots sound brilliant as well I'm going to have to get some of those to try as well. Great video!

I came from the whole backyard ( you light fireworks one at a time and appreciate them, school) and I love displays without music & I love the different bonfire societies displays I met some of the guys from BBB at Plymouth, they must have hung about 14 5” inch salutes over the breakwater for their show🙂 I would say though that sometimes pyro musicals can go well, case in point the show we did at Southport (came 2nd) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGHdd6iahaZ-bcksi=D_IVtg7N7Ot4jXhQ Thanks for commenting 🙂

The Klasek signature range single shots look great I was tempted to get some and the roman candles but i didnt in the end which im regretting now haha. The storm candles look great as well I'm definitely going to be getting some of those id like to compare them to the celtic ones. I see you got a few dumbum bits as well, theyre some of the last in the uk and I dont think theyll be back! You definitely have the same taste as me.

@pyrotechclips yeah, 5 inch racks can be heavy and 6 or 8 inch can take two people but you are right about the rewards, they can be 3 fold, 1. You get to be close up to a free firework show. 2. The audience can show there appreciation 3. Your own satisfaction of working skills improving etc… The clean up at the end can be a grind (especially in the rain) Many times I have had to rake grass in the dark lol)
