I don't do well on video, so today I tried to get better at it so at UKO I can record all my solves without any nervousness at all. But 7.77 is not bad for my first recorded "video PB". I will try to beat it tomorrow.
I have also got a 7.40 avg5 recorded if anyone would like to see it.

Gogogo 2nd sub 8 official avg!!

Woah, very consistent. So impressive. Congrats!

Brest?

You are a true inspiration, Roux ftw!

That is so very very cool. I will have to look in to Roux after I master the Fridrich

I remember when I use to be better than you. Sigh.

That firstblock speed

so darn fast

Why so nervous? I wasn't nervous at my last comp... like it didn't affect my times, and i filmed some of my stuff.

Awesome avg tho, i need to do more roux now....

This, sorta... Last comp I was anxious to, well, get a sub10 avg like everyone was expecting me to. My first round avg was low9 mo3, then a 12 pop and a counting 11. My best avg at the comp was a 9.996 which rounded to 10 D:

Also when I have the feeling "YES i am about to beat my PB" I know I am going to f*** it up moments later... Thats just me I guess. I am improving on it.

When you type fast you just type however you want to (whatever it feels best doing), not exactly how you're supposed to type, but whatever.

at the rate you improve there'll come a time when a messed up average will also beat WR average, so no pressure

Same me, remember very well those days.

I am looking forward to your next competition so much.
Congratz on the lucky number!

Colemak is a better layout than Dvorak most of the time (according to multiple comparisons)

Anywho, we should probably stay on topic

Are you color neutral or do you always have white or yellow on bottom?

btw the first block is really nice. What's the avg number of moves you use to make the first block? Total STM move count?

Amazing, dude.
