This past Black Friday I decided to make an order from Cobra Firing Systems. This system is all the rage by those who are in the know. Cobra has a grass roots following who are not to be taken lightly. So today I unbox my order and take a quick look at the system. On a future system we will take a more detailed look at this system and others.

I picked up a package while at SkyWars this year from Don Kark of Simplifire. Don introduced the Simplifire Mongoose firing system to help fill a gap in the wireless firing system market. Today I am just getting started by unboxing these units for a quick look. In a future video we will take a deep dive into this firing system and some others.

Crowd favorite at SkyWars is hands down the fireballs from Fireball Dudes. Bill Corbett this year has stepped up his game to help put SkyWars on the world record map. I decided to try something different this year. Fireballs are obviously very visually appealing, but almost more important is the wave of infrared heat that hits you in the face. But to appreciate the heat I used a thermal camera to gain a new view of the now famous fireball.

We’re back for the big day, all the final preparation is happening, and the main event is tonight. New to the sky this year are short laser shows between the shows, as well as an intermission from pyro featuring 200 choreographed drones lighting up the sky from Sky Elements. Skywars brings the heat with the Fireball Dudes, with a world record attempt fireball!

Back again for the biggest best SKYWARS to date! This year has many first, and a slightly new format. But today is a behind the scenes look of what the Missouri Pyrotechnics Association does to put on the pyro! Join me as I look at unique setups that these pyros from all over the country are putting together.

Today I give you the latest additions to the QuickSplit collection. The QS-12P is a parallel wired version of the original QuickSplit-12. Depending on your firing system you might be able to fire ematches in parallel vs. series. Because of the parallel configuration there is no need for jumper, just simply plug in up to 12 quick connect or quick plug ematches.

I purchased the latest controller from fireTEK. In this video I unbox my latest package from Romania the home of fireTEK. This controller supports the latest 64 cue modules with a color screen and built in audio player.
