Decent round, always nice to see no sup 30's. Slower than last week though, which is a bit of a bummer.

Round 186
Race to sub-25
Method: CFOP (yellow cross)
Cube: Valk 3
Ao12: 22.69

(26.54), 19.90, 25.51, 20.73, 21.02, 24.24, 25.38, 21.56, 19.03, (18.64), 23.68, 25.98

I did this without knowing which race to enter, since I haven't done any timed solves with yellow cross before this. Now when I see the results, it seems I could head straight to the sub-20 race with this cross. Oh well, I'm still not done with the white cross race to sub-20, so I can finish this race to sub-25 and get some yellow cross practice while completing that.

Same for me! Great feeling. I owe it all to (some practice) and the stickerless Weilong Gts2. Basically lowered my Ao100 with over 2 sec! I saw that you use the Gts2 as well. Sweeeet cube isn't it

I do like it... stickerless too! It's a toss up between that and the stickerless Valk 3 for me at this point. Although, I do reach for the GTS2 first, more often. I like the feel of it. I DO need to practice more targeted practice to drill the different aspects of my solve (and some awkward algs).

Pretty similar to last week's results. I suppose it shouldn't surprise me, as I haven't practiced this cross since then. If I want to reach sub-20 with yellow cross, I'd need quite a lot of practice...

Ao12 = 25.870, damn. Starting over... I was hoping last week wasn't an anomaly.

Yup, me too. Got nervous I guess. I was on fire the first six solves, then I just lost it. Did the same scrambles two days later just for fun and got a sub 24 Ao12.....competition nerves...
