After inspecting the rockets at the rocket factory, Wyn’s next job was to visit the barrage/cake factory to check the production and quality of the tubes. The quality of the tubes is extremely important in barrages – if the tubes are weak then the chance of the firework malfunctioning is massively increased.

Check out the video below by our good friend David DeSafey from Pyro Talk in the USA, he explains a little more about the importance of strong high quality tubes.

Here’s a shot video of a production line in China…

As you can see below, the firework sheds were piled up with epic product ready to be packed into their UN approved cartons.

Wyn will make another trip to China in the middle of July 2013 to check the remainder of the stock before shipment.

It must be such a hard demanding job to go to China and light fireworks day and night……the entire epic fireworks team are full of envy

The Gold Willow review by Sorted Magazine Nov / Dec 2012

This awesome barrage shows how a gold willow effect should really be.

The gold willow shoots out five 30mm (maximum tube size for consumer fireworks in the UK) shots at a time from this fan barrage, completely filling the sky with slow falling stars which appear to hang in the air for an eternity.

The timing is excellent, as with all things Epic, but this is a must for every display. The video below is of 1 x gold willow.

Good and loud with beautiful gold tinsel effects – what more could you ask for? Two or three perhaps…. Spaced well apart, these little beauties will completely fill up the sky above. The video below is of 3 x gold willow fired at once
