Not everyone can shave ATG but you may be able to in time...
How far in the shave do you get without irritation so far?

I have no problems with irritation until I try an ATG pass. I actually use the same strokes as I always did when I shaved with my mach 3. I start with the side burns and go across my face to my mouth with a downward stroke, then the other side of my face, then my neck from left to right, from the bottom of my neck upwards to the chinline, then my chin from bottom lip to lower chin, then my upper lip. This is the most comfortable way to shave that I have found, but it does leave some stubble on my neck and mustache area, as well as some parts of my face. Since my hair grows in all sorts of directions its actually an across the grain angle on my entire neck, and most of my face. But since its what my face has been used to I guess it produces the most comfort. I might stick with that until I become more proficient.


But in most everyone's opinion, I should be able to drop any nonsense about the razor being not supremely sharp.
