[Unofficial] Rowan Kinneavy 3x3 - avg of 5 - 15.94

times, scrambles etc are in the video description


hopefully this embedding thing has worked...
and any tips? beyond 'recognise your A perms faster!'

nice one, improvement since uk open!!

hah, just a tad

but my damn video is only 1:38 long, again!

something is definitely going wrong in the compressing/uploading stage. ill report back!

EDIT

hmm, according to VLAN its 3:38 long... okay, ive narrowed it down to compression. something is wrong with the compressor, so ill try and just upload the windows media file (using dirty windows movie maker), and see if that works.

EDIT 2

its uploading now, 'cept its 48mb rather than 17, so you might have to wait

Nice man, nice.

Awesome, sub 15 average from more UK cubers soon?

You'd be lucky to get it from me.

Garmon, your 3x3 average is so much better than mine.

Click to expand...

ive already got one (of 5, admittedly)
i also got a 15.6x of 12, but obviously not on video.

best thing about this vid is that there was no warm up

sorry for double post, but i wanted a bump

edited in the new version! now you can actually see the solves i purport to do!

yay for me. :|

pretty amazing, Rowan !

although I don't know how you cope with those tatty stickers, lol.

also, I saw you got a full step 10.xx in the accomplishment thread, that must have felt good.

btw, I have a spare A II centre cap if you want it.

lol those tattered stickers would def not cut it for me.

yeah they're pretty awful, i need to buy some more, im just really too lazy
ill probs see if all of my mates want cubesmith stickers soon.

and thanks very much, pete, but im gonna get another A II in my next cube4you order, and they come with a spare center cap (we should have a sheff cube meet in the feb half term! its in a couple of weeks, i know you probably wont know )

PB update!
50/50 - 16.36
RA 10/12 - 14.77
RA 3/5 - 13.39 new PB (so close to 13.37...)
today and yesterday evening have been awesome, i've absolutely smashed my PBs. im gonna try and get some good solves on film this weekend, and improve consistency

you'll be sub-15 very soon by the looks of it, nice one !

you like AIIs don't you? I still don't like mine that much, I'm going to get some of those c4u diys soon.

Hey do you know there's a freeze flash mob in town on Saturday @ 12pm?

well, i think they have a LOT of untapped potential. i just find mine to turn ridiculously fast yet still be controllable. it locks up a little, and pops too often for my liking, but im still hopeful.
besides, ive tried lots of As (Black + white), my puzl, a transparent DX C, several Ds (white and black), a D/A core hybrid, and plenty of storeboughts and i just cant get half as fast as i am with the A II (A core, though ).

I get proper frustrated with it sometimes though, it POPs waaay too much.
anyway, that second A II is gonna be very carefully modded, so it might become my new main cube, and the one i have now relegated to OH (Jude got like 25s avgs with one, even when he was just sub 20 on 2H)

where is everybody meeting? i might come in if im not asleep...

and yeah, hopefully by the end of next month I'll be more consistent, and a lot closer to 15. After feb half term im gonna cut cubing down though, A2s (as in the exams ) are waaaay more important than cubes.

I think its around the peace gardens area. I think over 3000 people joined the facebook group, would be good if a lot of people did it. I'm going to solve the cube and freeze at the last turn.

let me know if you're gonna go, we could meet up for an hour or summat. If not, we'll have a sesh during your "half-term". Man I miss the frequency of school holidays.
