Race to Sub-30 and Race to Sub 25

I haven't been on here in quite awhile... I haven't been in this "competition" yet, so I guess I'm a newbie this week.

I'm not sure what I'm racing to meet. I'd like sub-25, but I think today was pretty lucky overall. I set all sorts of person bests in this series of 12. Best Ao5 and Best Ao12 ever. My single best survived, but hopefully not for long.

That last one felt like it just came off the rails after being in a good pattern. Nevertheless. I was very pleased with this result.

No major screw-ups this week - EOLine is much better - though F2L could definitely be improved to reach the 25 second goal. Still this is my PB Ao12 time and really happy after the disaster that was last week.

1. Messed up F2L final pair but still got a pretty decent time anyway
4. Orient corners skip
5. Quite a few small mistakes in F2L
8. Very slow F2L FL block
9. Very easy F2L

Round 175

Alright, it's my first time in this thread (race to sub-25). I average pretty often sub-25 and wanted to try how this is gonna start going. I use cfop, I do green cross, full pll and know about 25 oll. My main is Thunderclap. This average was pretty consistent, I got a couple pretty bad solves now, but the last two sub-23:s maybe gave me the sub-25 average. I still have way too much pauses.

After last week's good performance (by my standards), this one didn't go so well. I was optimistic after practice, but I made major mistakes on quite a few solves that tanked my time. Again, if I can cut out these big mistakes, I think I can get sub-25.

2. Slow F2L - took really long on 2nd and 3rd blocks. Then did wrong G perm.
4. Messed up EOLine and ended up only correcting it halfway through F2L
5. Messed up EOLine again
6. No skips, F2L wasn't particularly easy, this just ended up going really fast for me
7. Another good solve on an averagely difficult cube
9. Slow F2L - took really long on 1st and 2nd blocks.
11. Started the corner orient alg in the wrong position, caught it and corrected it, but this could have been even quicker

Valk 3 M unboxed today. Strange feeling. Some of the solves where worse but some better then in round 173. Great cube, I feel I could be doing faster, but am still getting used to the cube.
