Observations of flare stars with high time resolution permit to register spiky type flares and also to study in detail bright curves of flares. In Byurakan observatory observations of EV Lac have been made with 0.1 s time resolution simultaneouslyin two filters “U” and “B” [1-3]. These observations permited to detect flares of a burst type (Fig.1) and also to reveil multipeak structure of long duration flares. It is necessary to stress that simultaneous observations in two colours increas appresiably the thrustworthiness of the registered spiky flares.
