"Coup de maître" aka "The Master's Pass".

Just grow a moustache and move on with your lives.

That is a classical non sequitur, James.

bufoon means fool from French,
coup de bufoon = fools pass
I guess the analogy is that one gotta be a fool to go ATG under the nose, pretty funny.

Well, is the bufoon supposed to refer to the Coup de Maitre or Xman's "Fool's Pass"? It's unclear to me, so I thought I'd ask rayman what he meant.

Coup de Maitre is the WTG pass under the nose , so Xman's fools pass = coup de bufoon or ATG under the nose.

All I can say is Mama didn't raise no fool here. IOW, the coup de maitre and the side to side do it for me. YMMV and there is nothing wrong with that.

I think I'm having trouble visualizing what rayman is posting about. Is the difference between your pass, rayman, and Xman's "Fool's Pass" that you say move your lip while Xman moves the razor? Maybe if you or someone else could do a video demo of your pass that would clear things up for me.

I visualize what Rayman is saying is , one holds the razor still edge facing towards the nose while moving the upper lip such that it will shave off the edge.
I personally do the pass like Xman only I am not using both hands, and I do not do full pass, I do 2-3 short passes until I reach the nose. I have done full pass but really I like my nose as it is
