"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

Cool stuff Raoul! You are almost at my times now.. I am not timing for a while. Just OLL practice ;)

Far from it, I still rarely do any sub-30 single, although I do more than say a week ago, but my PB (single 23.65 Ao5 31.06 and Ao12 32.00) are not close to yours. But eventually I'll get there I guess, I'm still quite happy with my progression. Good luck with the Olls!
 
Round 136 (OH)
Average: 29.64

27.94, 27.67, (31.92), 31.84, 30.78, 30.14, 31.18, (23.12), 30.50, 29.96, 29.62, 26.75

YESSSS!!! WHEW!!! I was worried. It was so close all the way through. I know it could have been much better but my hands decided to go cold on me when I started this average. And I was just losing my cool because I was worried to begin with... thank goodness for ccw U-perm on the last solve.
 
Round 136, ao12 38.92

40.44, 42.28, 34.40, 34.42, [53.54], 42.57, 38.58, 33.62, 42.75, 42.23, (25.10), 37.92

I've been getting more practice in the last few weeks and it's starting to show. That "30" doesn't seem so far away. And I modified the "history" panel in Prisma Puzzle Timer so I could see my progress a little better. By the way, I still haven't figured out how to embed pictures, the advice in the help forums is obsolete and doesn't work for me.

Round 137: Petrus
Average: 34.80

(27.90), 36.29, 40.02, 36.28, 33.52, 29.94, (41.16), 29.61, 33.68, 36.81, 36.19, 35.66

Inconsistent. I was really tired doing this average, so some solves had really bad recognition and look ahead. Mediocre result for me. Still waiting for a 33.

How about Roux? It will be fun because I will enter with Roux this week and SneaklyFox has also entered with Roux just now.

Nice!! Next week the first sub 30 ;) No pressure there... LOL

Yeah, try Roux! Not long ago, I couldn't get sub-1 with Roux either. Actually when I started trying Roux it would take me 2-3 mins to do a Roux solve. It was Marcel who got me to practice Roux. I don't know how hard it will be to get sub-30 though.
 
feel free to PM me any roux tutorial you can find that is helpfull :) (esp blockbuilding i guess.. altho that comes down to practice :/)

I actually have been wanting to find a block building Roux tutorial but I haven't really seen anything at all. So far all I've seen on blockbuilding is just the advice to "practice". Mainly they say to start building a 1x2x2 block. I've been thinking about making a video about blockbuilding...
