Bright gold-glitter tails rise from the cake and trace the path of each shot into the sky. These sparkling ascents give the performance a polished look before the larger aerial effects open.
Red and blue dahlias spread outward in bold, rounded patterns. The saturated patriotic colors remain highly visible against the gold tails and flashing white accents.
Gold and white strobe mines erupt beneath the aerial breaks, adding intense flashes at the lower level of the display. These mine effects help fill the space between the cake and the larger bursts overhead.
Energetic crackling mines introduce a stronger sound and texture. Their busy sparks build momentum beneath the fanned aerial volleys and provide contrast with the cleaner dahlia and strobe effects.
Golden brocade effects spread into rich, branching crowns. Their warmer color and longer visual persistence give the performance a heavier, more dramatic appearance as it approaches the final sequence.
The closing sequence sends silver flying fish across the sky in wide fanned volleys. Their fast, unpredictable movement creates a lively panoramic finish and gives the 42-shot version of Flying Proud a finale distinct from conventional round aerial breaks.
Flying Proud combines a classic red, white, and blue theme with a broad angled firing pattern. Instead of concentrating all 42 shots in a single vertical column, the cake distributes its effects across several firing lanes for greater lateral coverage.
The high-and-low performance adds another layer of depth. Strobe and crackling mines remain active below while dahlias, brocades, and flying fish occupy the upper sky. This combination makes the display appear larger and fuller than its shot count alone suggests.

Flying Proud works especially well during the middle or later portion of a patriotic display. Its angled pattern can widen the presentation after a series of straight-firing cakes, while its mines and aerial breaks provide activity at several heights.
Use it as a featured red, white, and blue segment before transitioning into a gold-heavy finale. The silver flying-fish finish can also provide an effective visual change before larger brocade, willow, or chrysanthemum effects.
Place Flying Proud outdoors on a hard, flat, level, nonflammable surface. Stabilize the cake securely against tipping without covering the tubes, fuse, warning label, or designated firing direction.
Because this cake uses a fanned firing pattern, identify the front of the package and orient it exactly as instructed on the label. Provide additional clearance on both sides and ensure no angled tube points toward spectators, buildings, vehicles, trees, dry vegetation, overhead wires, or other obstructions.
Keep spectators at least the minimum distance printed on the product label. Light the fuse at arm’s length and retreat immediately. Never lean over the cake, hold it while lighting, place any part of your body above the tubes, or attempt to alter its construction.
Never relight a malfunctioning firework. Wait the period specified on the label, soak the item thoroughly with water, and dispose of it in accordance with local requirements. Keep a hose, bucket of water, or another appropriate water source nearby.
Always follow the product’s printed instructions and all applicable state, county, and municipal fireworks laws.
