Hello everyone!

After I got a DOVO straight as a gift I bought a paddle strop and couldn't wait to shave!

I am using a DE razor for 2 years now without problems, even with Feathers I don't get nicks or cut and always a BBS!

So... with a two days growth, I stropped the razor slowly. It is'nt as easy as it seems on videos!!

I made a good lather with my proraso soap/cream preparation with pre-shave and started shaving....

The razor was pulling and it wasn't a comfortable shave, can be bad angle only?? I got a decent shave when going against, but it wasn't comfortable, not at all.

I remember when starting with the DE, that it wasn't that easy... but I had to focus on technique only, not in the blade.

Any opinions are welcome!
