"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

My average is right about 40s, not really expecting to get to sub-30 anytime soon but I figured I would join this for some motivation to get better at OH...
 
Round 160
Average = 40.57

Awful. Two weeks of dedicated F2L practice has destroyed my consistency and left me rusty at everything else. These are the first sup-50 solves I've had for months :(

Brian - thanks for running this comp and for the way you present the results each week, which is great! Much nicer than a simple list like most other forum comps. This comp is the highlight of my cubing week :)

Have a great vacation!
 
Round 161
Speed

Average of 12: 29.92
28.11, (36.59), (22.05), 30.70, 28.93, 30.08, 28.80, 30.41, 32.10, 31.27, 32.07, 26.70

More 30+ solves than sub 30, but the 3rd avg of 12 which is sub 30 in a row. I'm happy that I could pull myself together for the last solve. The mean was sup 30 after 11 of them.
I think there is no need to do round 162 :)


anyway. Enjoy your vacation!
 
Round 161 OH
Average: 28.04

28.07, (34.61), 29.13, 25.43, 25.92, 26.62, 33.06, 26.11, (22.82), 31.65, 30.40, 24.02

Ao5: 26.22

PB ao12 and ao5!
Crazy average with half of the solves sub 27. Not even any skips and the 22.82 was with dot OLL (and U-perm).
Now I just need one more sub 30 average...
 
Round: 161
Times: 27.83, 26.74, 31.62, (36.88+), (22.59), 27.91, 29.84, 30.38, 31.85, 25.94, 28.38, 27.87
Average of 12: 28.84

Between last round and this round, I got bored and tried doing things with (R U R' U') and (R' F R F'). Eventually, I made my own G perm! (R U R' U') (R' F R F')*3 (R U R' U')*2 U Sune and its mirror and inverse. But clearly, it doesn't work very well, as I got a much slower time with it then forgot to AUF. It is quite long (27 moves). But other than that time, I'm happy with these results.

Round: 162
Times: 29.75, 31.64, 28.15, 33.41, 28.51, 29.02, 31.61, 26.52, (33.52), 27.81, 30.19, (24.47)
Average of 12: 29.66

It was close. My average after 10 times was 29.99, and after 11 times it went up to 30.01. Luckily I got a good enough last time to get my third consecutive sub-30 average. Practising ZZ has helped with CFOP times.

Round 161 - Speed

Average: 29.18
29.72, (34.29), 29.81, 27.81, 26.82, 27.26, 31.55, (26.53), 27.75, 32.37, 29.67, 29.03

Yeeeaah! I've been getting a lot of sub 30 solves the last days and broke my pb's several times. So I thought it would be possible to score a sub 30 in this competition too, but I didn't expect to do it so soon. :D I hope I can keep this up and get sub 30 averages consistently.
 
Round: 161
Speed

Average of 12: 50.74

Times: 55.65, 1:11.48, 58.27, 52.14, 39.89, 50.78, 43.87, 42.50, 55.68, 55.69, 52.95, 32.06

This is my first attempt at this and I was expecting somewhere around the 55 second mark. I've only gone sub 40 once before so twice in one session with new single, Ao5 and Ao12 PBs is all good! Just got to keep it up now. :)

Been back at work this week so not had much time to practice. I really need to get more consistent with my times, 4 x sup 1 min solves sucks!
