Wow. That's a great average. You've really improved since Minnesota. We both have. What's your current best average of 12?

Tip , practise for a week the 4x4 or 5x5 this will improve your lookahead on the 3x3 even more!

[philkt731]

my best avg of 12 is 14.57, but I'm usually around 15.5. Yeah you've improved a lot in every event.

Ton, thanks for the tip, I've always been kinda scared about practicing those too much cause I think that it would slow my 3x3 times dpwn, maybe I'll practice them more now

With all the Dutch fast cubers Rama, Ron Erik, Marc , I notice the effect. With big cubes you turn a bit slower and you must look around a lot , this is why it is good for your look ahead on the 3x3 .

I very much agree with Ton.
Practice big cubes to improve your lookahead (on 3x3x3)
Practice 3x3 to improve your turning-speed (and 3x3x3-stage) on big cubes.
