How 'bout the grip?
One topic I haven't seen much discussion on here in the SRP is the grip...how you hold the razor and how it differs for different strokes.
I've made some recent advances in my shaving by finding more secure workable grips, mostly from studying and adapting the descriptions and pictures in an old barber's manual. My biggest gain came in a "back hand" grip that lets me do ATG. I couldn't even think about an ATG pass until I found a good grip for it. That combined with info gleaned from a posting or two on the blade angle for ATG and I've managed a little ATG success...and renewed hope I can oneday have a str8 shave to rival my DE!
I know this varies, like most stuff out here, but anyone else have any thoughts, tips, challenges when it comes to the grip?
