My show first show ever went awesome tonight!! Did have to relight two times but I wasnt worried about that. I had two shells only go up about 3 feet and explode....that was interesting!! It was back to back shells as well. Any thoughts on this? The finale was awesome!! I hope to get some video put up on here soon. All in all, it went better than expected. Show lasted about 20 minutes.

Were they Pro Shells? The reason I'm asking is because we have had about a dozen shells break low like that. The 12 shells were from 2 different cases.

I couldn't be for sure. I had a mixture of pro, excals, HD and exterminators. It could have been either of those.

You need to call them and tell them. I talked to them this morning and they said that I was the only person having trouble with there shells.

I heard of a couple issues with Excalibers doing the same thing. There's really no way to tell since they were all mixed. I'll be watching my Exterminators when I shoot them.

What type tubes were you shooting out of?

They were HDPE and the fiberglass tubes they came with.

The two that shot low out of mine were from fiberglass tubes. Not the tubes they came with either. I will try to call them tonight when I get home and see what they say.

Here is a link to our friends youtube of some of my first show. This is shot from her Iphone. I will put more of the show that my wife took with our camcorder but she didn't do the best job. I guess I didn't explain to her what I wanted so most of it is my fault. I will know for next time.

The third video shows what didn't shoot off before the finale. It was supposed to be the prelude to the finale. They enjoyed it afterwards though!! LOL

Before blaming the shells as most people do where you sure to check the tube to ensure it was clean and that the shell was down all the way. low breaks happen but most are prevented yes chinese shells are subject to question but doing our part also helps in the shells performance. Just a quick note in case someone reads this and didnt do the aforementioned.

After watching the video a few times and where that happened during the show, I really don't think it was an artillery shell. I really think that came out of a cake. All my loadable shells were all towards the end of the show.
