Where I'm still having difficulties is on the neck. I go north and south fine but going outside to inside (ATG) along the trachea proves awkward. I can go diagonally up and inside but not straight across.
First Straight Shave Yesterday

Even though the hair grows sideways on the lower third of my neck, I just go NS and SN. Too much "fun" trying to go sideways for me there, except fot the outside inch or so. There I can go at a 45 degree angle.

I hear you on that. I should probably not be trying for BBS there; I'll do the 45 degree compromise.
Agreed on that! - "The Fool's Pass" - perfect title for when I tried it Sat! 
But as PAX mentions - it's the little victories - getting the angle just right - even if it's only on the cheeks, smoother stroke than last shave, perfect lather, etc.
There seems to be a lot more "learning and leaking" with a straight than with a DE, but the process IS fun!

Can't take the credit on that one. GeoFatBoy said it on YouTube. First time I'd heard it, anyway.
