    Great input guys. The video and the diagrams really help me visualize what I need to modify.
    I realize I am not stretching nearly enough. This is a very enjoyable challenge.

    How I hold the razor varies when I'm on the neck. Sometimes I hold the scales straight out as if the razor was a Japanese kamisori . Depends. Same with stretching, there are some areas where I have to pull the skin in opposite directions, from what seemed 'correct,' to flatten the area to get a good pass. Playing around with stretching, blade angle and direction of attack has helped me get it in a 2 pass shave most of the time. Also depends on the whiskers, we all aren't playing with the same deck of cards.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
