Finally, a question i can relate too! Mine use to do that aswell!. Its the pad on it!. Usually if you smoke, chew gum or have anything sugary before you play, it forms a sticky layer over the pad which will stop it from sealing properly!. also, it could be something as simple as a loose spring!. Easiest thing to do is take to a music shop!. If its a spring problem, they usually fix it on the spot and dont charge it for you!. If its a pad problem, they'll take it in for a service and replace all of them for you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

might be a bad pad, or broken spring- take it to your band teacher and ask him if he can fix it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
