    it is when on a totally normal stroke instead of pulling the blade straight down you go down and slightly across. i must stress the slightly part as you don't want to go too far. so the angle of the blade compared to the skin is the same but it is the angle of the stroke that is like 5 degrees off. i suspect many people do it without even knowing it to a certain degree.
