Ash Split?

I was smoking a Camacho SLR Maduro last night and from the foot to about 1" 1/4 the ash literally split like you were splitting wood. It smoked just fine and didn't continue after it fell off. I've seen this before...what causes that?

I call it an "alligator" because it looks like a big spiky mouth
don't know what causes it but I have seen it often. Looks bad but doesn't seem to effect anything

Yup that's it. Could be from the moisture in the tobacco evaporating causes the tobacco to "curl".

I haven't had one completely split open but I have had a few with camel toe though.

I've had it happen, it seems like if the foot gets banged up a little, the ash can start out a little weird, and it continues if you don't break the ash off early. If you do break it off, then it seems to be fine after that.
