Quest to become sub 10 on 3x3

[Cody_Caston]

This will be like my quest to get sub 3 on skewb except i will be posting example solves on this thread because i feel more people can help me with 3x3.
Also this isn’t a goal to achieve by the end of the year, i don’t care when i achieve this, i just want to achieve sub 10 on 3x3 one day.
At the time i am posting this, i average 16-18.
I will be posting cs timer sessions below here soon

I am happy to critique your solves if you want to post reconstructions.

Ok because I’m bored, I’m going to do an example solve
Scramble D' B R2 D2 L2 R2 F D2 R2 B' D2 B F U' L B2 R2 F' D U2
Z2 // inspection
F R’ D’ R’ B // cross
D L’ U’ L D’ L’ U L // 1st f2l pair
L U2 L’ U L U’ L’ // 2nd f2l pair
U2 R U’ R’ R’ U’ R // 3rd f2l pair
d R’ U2 R U R’ U2 R // 4th f2l pair
U R U B’ U’ R’ U R B R’ // OLL
U’ R U R’ U’ R’ F R2 U’ R’ U’ R U R’ F’ U // PLL and AUF

you need to check you solutions at http://alg.cubing.net first then post it because when I tried your solution it didn't solve the cube.

Ok thanks

F R’ D’ R’ B // cross

This solution is really weird to finger trick. I would've done x' D Rw' D' L' F

D L’ U’ L D’ L’ U L // 1st f2l pair

interesting pair option but U2 R U2 R' U' L U' L' or L U2 L' U L U' L' is better.

L U2 L’ U L U’ L’ // 2nd f2l pair

good

U2 R U’ R’ R’ U’ R // 3rd f2l pair

good, idk why R' R'
Other ways of solving this would've preserved EO but that's not a big deal.

d R’ U2 R U R’ U2 R // 4th f2l pair

good
U R' U R would've given a much better LL

U R U B’ U’ R’ U R B’ R’ // OLL
U’ R U R’ U’ R’ F R2 U’ R’ U’ R U R’ F’ U // PLL and AUF

I prefer S sexy sledge as it is more reliable for me but that's up to you.

Sorry cant give any times and averages this week but I’ll try to give example solves
