    That's an awesome focus, Keith, and a great pair of shaves! Glad you were able to get the Auto Strop up and running--Zoom (and Jeff) saves the day :D

    Run, push ups, pull ups and sit ups until you think you will die and then do a lot more. In a way the 6 months will at least let you miss basic in the heat of the summer. From personal experience, basis in the summer truly sucks.

    The Shave
    3 very quick passes this morning (the Missus was making French toast, and I wanted to be done before the food was ready). WTG, XTG, and ATG, with only a few small touch ups on the bottom of the chin and around the bottom lip got me BBS. Today is a chase day, but I really didn’t even need to chase.

    The lack of chasing surprised me quite a bit actually. The Flare Tip is a very mild razor, and the Voskhod was on its 3rd shave. Evidently not an issue. While I still prefer an aggressive shaver, I’m finding that the aggression level doesn’t matter quite as much as I used to think--especially when I’m shaving daily.

    Have a wonderful Sunday, folks! :D

    Terrific shave, Tim!
    I'm a believer that efficiency has more to do with technique than the razor. You're really getting your technique dialed in. Congrats!

    Great report Tim! I found if you shave daily you can get away with a mild combo.
