All videos are 1080p because I uploaded 2 at Richie's house and 1 at the airport.

5.28 7.43 5.52 6.50 3.78 = 5.77.
I wanted a mid-high 5 average and got it, but the 6.50 was really easy, and the 5.28 had awful recog. Happy with the average but not what made up the average. Was racing Angus pre-average and he kept beating me so I got triggered :(

Pyraminx: http://youtu.be/Tnh8jfPxtAA

4.27 3.90 4.15 4.47 3.88 = 4.11
5 minutes before Pyra I was searching everywhere for a screwdriver, it was super loose for some reason, as you can see in the video. Scrambles were really easy, some random nub got a 2.78 on the last scramble so I'm 4th in Australia for single now! Only solve with "ok" tps was 4.47

3x3: http://youtu.be/lrZge28TNdk

Not bad, not sub 9.80 though. Reconstruction? Messed up my cross but I guess without that I wouldn't have had an easy OLL skip case into J-perm

Other events;

OH: 19.63 20.05 18.96 28.65 28.93 = 22.78.

19.63 20.05 18.96 first 3 solves, realised "holy **** this is fast, also can podium easy", got triggered so 2 28s. http://i.imgur.com/zdhhQdA.jpg needed dat lucky judge again

4x4: 50.59 1:05.15 48.05 51.05 1:05.28

Got lucky with parity for once, only had one OLL parity I think (the 51.05) and 3 PLL parities (on the 50.59 and 51.05)

51.05 could've been low 40, but parity is out of my hands (except for in my ZB_FTW days)

Crazy counting times, 50 51 65. Missed finals by less than half a second. Sucks that my PB comp average has counting 65...

Other events: Missed 2x2 final cos popped on a 2/3->counting 6. Missed 3x3 final because I got triggered. FMC 35 with 8 move insertion no cancels :(

Is that SS Skewb with no balls?

GJ Great average!

Yeah it's dank.

Nice. Lol your 3rd pyra solve.

Yeah, like this average could've been something dumb like 2 3 2 4 2. Obviously that'd be at home+gj.

Jay also triggered me after my last solve, look what he got on it: http://youtu.be/lYDVtPSE-iA?t=1m6s

Jay always gets easy scrambles whilst I'm scrambling for his group. I was in his group due to lunch at this comp and look, easy scrambles!
