The picture is shot using a shutter speed of 1/640s but to capture in even more detail an even faster shutter speed is needed, using the Canon 5d it allows me to go up to 1/8000s but the sync speed for the splash only allows 1/200 which is too slow.
This is my initial setup; Canon 5d with canon EF 24-105mm USM lens, 1000w studio flash with concentrating flute. Though the flash provided enough light but as explained above it didn't have a fast enough sync speed to freeze the action.
I changed my setup to include a Canon 430EXII flashgun connected to the 5d with an off camera hot shoe cable with the high sync speed mode on the flashgun it allowed me use the fastest shutter speed the camera has, 1/8000s, but the flashgun didn't provide enough light to use such a fast shutter speed so the studio light was also used and was triggered by the flash of the flashgun and therefore provided the extra light needed. Below are some of the images that resulted from this set up.

Triple Shot
