Got my new dayan yesterday, it has definitely helped my times. Though its like an untamed horse to me, I can't hardly control this thing. This cube is way smoother than my previous cube, I need to look up how to hold this thing and then maybe my times will be even better.

It's been a while. Need to work on blindfold cross + f2l transition. Also since I last did this I became white/yellow colour neutral. Took about 2 days and I was up to full speed.

Meh. if that 45 hadn't been such a mess up (had red and orange edge pieces of cross on wrong side, didn't realise until almost full F2L was over) then it would have been nice, but still not sub 30 anyway, unless it was (for me) phenomenonally fast.
EDIT: forgot to mention that in solve 10 i sneezed violently in the middle of inserting the 3rd F2L pair.

avg 40.44

Probably my most consistent week yet (DNF notwithstanding), and I've had a couple more sub-30 solves in practice which is encouraging. Trying to get out of a few bad habits (doing cross on top, too many rotations in LL when I should do AUF) and working on that F2L.

No lookahead was used here, been trying to practice my lookahead, my lookahead solves are between 40 seconds-1min 10seconds. I now learnt full PLL but the G perms slow me down cause I needa rotate the cube, I could do it after but that's a hassle. Lol the 28 seconds was a tripple sune and U perm :L so kinda lucky there.

Yeah I'm kinda similar, I'm stuck between solving as fast as I can (because I know I'm making my times public) and solving a bit more slowly (but trying out new things which I know will be faster in the long run). Somewhere between a mixture of the two this week.

Hopefully we can power ahead in the next few weeks!
