It's always great feeling giving back to the community, very happy everything went well we having ours on Tuesday, can't wait to see your videos! Enjoy your beer 🍺 Jimmy mate ! ❤
Looks like you had fun Jimmy, had a lot of that gear in mine last night. I was pretty impressed with the Trojan war, lovely colours and the gold brocade which comes immediately after the falling leaves worked so well
Great fun thanks! Yes I was impressed with the variety of effects in all the Caractcus Potts kit, just didn't like the pauses in between the cakes in the compounds.
Having fired both there's no contest. Relentless is faster paced, louder and has a fan effect at the ending. A proper crescendo. Watch the videos of both endings and you'll get it 👍
Compounds weigh up to 40kg so they aren't going anywhere. Only 3-4kg of the weight is the actual powder. If you are hand lighting I would but remote detonation is much safer.
@davidbarclay6293 No. They are all glued to the board so as long as you check it's secure to the board. The only other thing to consider is duct taping all around the sides for more integrity as some brands may be better put together than others!!
I liked Wrath of the Gods but then I really like falling leaves and it has two sections in it. So If you want punch all the way through it's not for you as there's horsetails also. There are gaps in between the sections but the final barrages are the loudest mate. Personally I'd put it behind the likes of riakeo vanquish and relentless but I thought it was a good mix effects ideal for a run up to a finale.

we have a display coming up. i am torn between using relentless and dreadnaught as finale cake. can you recommend why relentless will be best

Dreadnought doesn't have much of a finally ..relentless is as it says relentless and packs a right punch
Wow. But why did you have your bonfire night early?
What the cricket club wants. I have no choice in the date they pick. Means I can have a few at home on the actual 5th though 😉😉
Silly question. But should a compound be secured like a cake? I see your smaller cakes inside the pallets but the compounds just sitting free.

@@JimmyWhizz I bought my first compound this year. Was thinking about how heavy it was so. Slim to none of it tipping.

Nice man told you relentless works a treat for finally top man ..what do you think of wrath of gods been hearing mixed emotions on it
