PB AND FIRST SUB-10 9.01!!!!!!!!! ZZ Last Layer Skip (1/1944 iirc). Could've been sub9 but it took me half a second to find the spacebar...

I'm one round away from graduating. Again.

Reconstruction of 9.01 solve:

Scramble: B2 U2 L2 R' D2 R' B2 L B2 L2 B2 U B D L' F R' U F D2

x2
EOLine: D' L R' F U2 L2 D' (7)
Left: U2 L' U' L' U R U R' U' L' (10,17)
Right: U' R U' R' U2 R2 U' R2 (performed as R' R') U R (10,27)
AUF: U2 (1,28)
28/9.01=3.108 tps

And my previous PB was 11.90...
