Racing to sub-20

Round 186
21.84
(25.78), 23.09, 21.07, 22.23, 20.00, 20.17, (19.25), 21.27, 20.71, 21.88, 23.44, 24.56

Started and ended with terrible solves, but the rest was actually not bad. I think my biggest problem is the way I actually hold the cube; I can't seem to get comfortable with it. I dropped it several times in this average.
 
Round 186
Average: 22.03

Times:
20.77, 19.49, 20.51, 24.55, 22.28, 20.14, 45.62, 17.41, 18.76, 29.19, 22.08, 22.53
Though the average wasn't bad, this round could have been so much better... The :45 was a screwed up E perm (had two of those this average) and the :29 was a jacked up cross. There were a couple solves that should have been a couple seconds faster, but the cube just completely locked up and just stared at it not knowing what to do. Its sad that I get more nervous at home than I do in competitions.
 
(15.64), 22.11, 17.26, 18.37, 18.32, 17.46, (DNF(pop)), 16.44, 20.82, 22.64, 24.49, 21.37=19.93

Pretty good sub-20 average with one pop and 4 very bad solves at the end.

My first sub-20 Ao12 for this thread;) thanks to those last two solves I just barely made it...
 
Wow, you guys are churning out some pretty nice averages this round!

Sadly cant join you at sub20;
20.30, 22.46, (18.65), 21.11, 21.31, 19.83, 23.72, (25.22), 22.93, 21.21, 19.33, 21.78 = 21.40 :)

Sub 21 is acheivable next round I think!

Round 187
21.43
(27.28), (18.93), 19.00, 22.71, 20.89, 20.82, 23.51, 20.93, 20.21, 20.17, 21.41, 24.64

It feels like I'm faster. Never before has an average felt so bad and yet been so good for me. (And I got a sub-20 avg 3/5 for the weekly competition this week!) About half of these really should have been sub-20, but I just messed up turning. Lookahead was great on all of these.

I am very dissapointed. I am always doing very, very bad in this thread.

But, however: GRADUATION
