    Default Just had a Shave with a SuperSpeed

    .. And I have to say, I had problems finding the correct angle :/ IMO the blade exposure was very little, compared to my 11C and Futur. And When I first found the angle, I got a bad shave... Couldn't even go ATG at all. Had a fresh blade in it and all...

    I'll wait a couple of days before trying it again, and if it still shaves as bad as it did today I'll think about selling it.

    Anyone have any advices on the SS? Or is it just me that finds it abit difficult to find the correct angle?
    It was like, when I tried to shave WTG, I couldn't feel/hear it if I'd cut any hairs. So I had to adjust the angle, increase it a bit, and suddenly it shaved IMO too aggressive for me. Atleast when I went ATG.
    So the real problem was finding the WTG angle!

    My 11C felt oh so right in my hands, and so easy to find the correct angle! If you haven't tried it, be sure to do so! Especially noobs who want to try an open comb!

    I'm actually thinking of using my 11C WTG and XTG, and the Futur dialed down to 1 on my ATG pass on my neck. Maybe it's a bad idea to switch razors midshave?

    EDIT: And yeah, btw. This was the first time I have shaved two days in a row. Todays shave was just for the joy of it, and it wasn't any joy at all! :/ Maybe I should go back to my "shave every third day" routine.
