Catching them in mid-air is showing off. I've seen young hot-shots who do it with a flair, and it's always self-aggrandizement. I've shot with the best..... Digweed, McGuire, Matarese, Keinbaum, DeMichael, Miles, Kruger, Vine, Mein (father and son).............none of them are show-offs. Some of them are actually dull and boring to watch. It's just that they rarely miss.
Most S x S shooters are not show-offs, and do not catch shells in mid-air. I trap them from my S x Ss, just like my O/Us, but never do the mid-air stuff. It's no faster than trapping them, anyway.
