[Unofficial] 1:38.30 Megaminx solve (Tips?)

This solve is a bit below average, probably because of the easy cross, and the 2 Look OLL.
Sory that the cube is sometimes hard to see...
Any tips would be appreciated!
Megaminx is a Mefferts with Mf8 colour scheme.

Scrambles:

1. (12.48) R U' L' U2 L2 R U' B2 F L2 R2 F2 R F2 D B' L' R D2 U' F D R F2 U2

Does the "Bonus" work for anybody?
It doesn't seem to work for me, but I don't know what's wrong.

I actually can see the cube very clearly the entire video. The megaminx is hard to see though.

Nice solve, btw

Brest, want a challenge?

When I was around your time on the megaminx what really got me faster was just practice practice practice.

The only other thing I can really suggest is work on your "F2L." I'm not sure if this is the same for you but when I practice I notice that the everything past F2L takes about the same amount of time every solve. So if you want to focus somewhere focus there.

As for the rest of your solve, try avoiding pauses. I essentially do the same group of pairs in the same order every solve, so after F2L I know exactly which colors I'm looking for, which helps me look ahead.
