Yes! I'm thinking I could practise OH with my left hand too sometimes, because my left hand is to weak to do anything quickly at the moment, and that could help.

22.16 F2 L2 D2 R2 B' D2 L2 U2 R F2 D B' F U' L2 B' D

A nice XXCross, I was going just fine, probably going to get around 15.xx in what would have been one of my 2-3 best full step solves and then I failed the OLL and ended with a 22.xx instead. What a bummer!

I re-executed and got 16.17 but it was not nearly as fluid as the 1st time until I, well, you know.

Reconstruction:

(z2) // inspection
R' U' B2 u R U' R' U L2 // xx-cross (9/47)
U' L U2 L' U L U' L' // F2L#3 (17/47)
(y) U R U R' U' R U R' // F2L#4 (25/47)
R U R' U R' F R F' R U2 R' // OLL (36/47)
L R' U2 R U R' U2 L U' R U2 // PLL + AUF (47/47)

EDIT: Oh my! I re-executed it again and got an 11.33, which is way better than even my lucky (with PLL skip) PB single of 12.49. I think I could even sub-10 this one.

EDIT 2: I did not realize that 47 / 11.33 = 4,14 TPS. Probably my best TPS ever.

y f R U R' U' F' U2 f R U R' U' F R U R' U' // 2LookOLL
M2 U' M2 U2 M2 U' M2 U // H-Perm

Not the most amazing solve, but it was really weird to find 3 pairs done after an easy pair-up and insert in the back. Also, H-Perm, which is my fastest PLL, so, that's cool.

Edit: I may have messed up my y rotations, if the solve doesn't work, just reverse them.

I ended up with anti-sune and double Y perm, but I still don't really see what's so good about this scramble.

Oh, guess my 2x2 layer building still sucks.

This is actually an ortega solve with an OLL skip and a cancellation. I didn't think of it as a layer:

y' x' // Inspection
R' U' R2 // Orange face
// OLL skip
R2 F2 R2 // PBL

R' U' R2 R2 F2 R2 = R' U' F2 R2

40 move speedsolve (I wouldn't have seen the cancellation between F2L-4 and OLLCP).
