I know how to light up your night show.
 
I will (eventually) get some video clips of my favorite night shows on this page. Please check back.   
I am experimenting with pyro devices as a means to light the giant flags for night shows.
 
Last season, I performed a new daytime pyro-jump with a giant flag embedded in a smoke-candy-cane.
The custom made sponsor's logo banner was bordered above and below with matching colored smoke.  20 smoke canisters like the red ones (spent canisters) pictured above billowed thousands of cubic feet of colored smoke in lines that appears like a giant candy cane as I spin the parachute towards the earth.
That show was for Major League Soccer's All Star Game in Denver.
 
For 2008 I will offer the first giant flag night show that's visible to your audience no matter HOW bright your stadium lights.  Picture our beloved stars and stripes in the night sky illuminated by rocket-like fountains of gold and silver sparkles and billowing white smoke.
The 9-pound proto-type device I'll carry on each foot is pictured above with the blue fireproof racing boot.
