I have found positioning the razor for an across the neck pass near impossible. I kinda get the correct angle using the toe but it's very awkward and I am very scared of cutting myself doing it. So I went hunting for videos of a 3pass shave and in all the ones I viewed, NONE of the shavers went across the neck. All went N-S or/and then S-N. In the comments under geofatboys video someone called him out on it and his replay was "This works best for me". Others admitted the grain on the neck isn't in the direction you would expect for a down/up pass. Even if the grain was down, N-S give with, but the next three passes you would skip XTG and go straight to WTG.
So my question is;
1) Does anyone here go across the neck?
2) If not, do you do this because across is too hard, or some other reason.
