Shooting after the memorable exhibition of Mediterranean Valencian pyrotechnics was a challenge for the Alicante of Ferrández Brothers. And they assumed it. Overcoming the Mascletà this Sunday, possibly the best that has been launched since Luceros in history, seemed impossible. And so it has been. However, those of La Vega Baja, with a factory in Beniel, have demonstrated on Monday why the great dominators of the Luceros contest have been. They have offered a show that another year could be a candidate for victory. But not this.
The mascletan, you A specially long start tracahas started with digital passes, which have put the public in the shot from the first moment. Next, aerial retentions have taken control, with varied effects and a novelty of this year on stars: tritonous people who have filled the square with sounds, united to buzzing, colored windows and whirlpools, not forgetting the always applauded colored fumes (in this case, to also draw the flag of Spain), and in the background the traditional thunders. And again, more digital past to break the rhythm. A start more than agile, although with Some uncomfortable silence for moments.
After the first two minutes, the central body has entered Liza, with the Earth's fireropes that have been burning little by little and offering an intensity of height to be alone in the intermediate part of the Mascletà. Little by little, as the latter passed, the power has even gone to more, to give way to the most anticipated: an end divided into several phases.
The first has been the Earth's earthquakedesigned on two floors. Very intense and continued over time, of the level that Alicante demands in bonfires. After five minutes, the gaze has moved to heaven, with a shot that when it seemed that it reached the end he only gave the witness to another phase. A bombardment full of effects, which has been growing in intensity, has been combined at times with land digital passes, to close with a hermetic climax. A game at two heights that has been at the level of a pyrotechnics with prestige such as Brothers Ferrández, the ones who have won the most victories in Luceros in the last decade. Of course, far from the Mascletà of Mediterranean, which this Monday has starred in the corrillos prior to 14 hours and also the subsequent comparisons. In total, as always when the Alicante of Brothers Ferrández triggered, 150 kilos of regulatory material have been burned, distributed for 6 minutes and 22 seconds, with a maximum power of 124.5 decibels, yes, and surprises being the company that is, the lowest by the time of a contest that faced its end.
