If you watch one of Lynn's or Gssixgun's honing videos, you'll notice careful flips and lack of rushing, in spite of how many razors they've honed. Here is a good one, where Gssixgun is teaching a member:https://youtu.be/vxrs5kFkmJg

Also be aware that there is a usually weak side and a strong side to your pass. Practice and confidence will overcome these minor challenges. Keep that elbow “UP” sir.
