Yup! Randy Tuttle and Rod Bell met with me this weekend and gave me a number of pointers that I need to try out. Just to be clear, I'm nowhere near 100 shaves yet. I'm still practicing, but it's an odd feeling, because it doesn't feel like I'm making progress each shave. Rod said that one thing that often happens is you feel like you're not making progress, you're not making progress, and then one day, after a while, it just sort of happens and you get it.
