Ight, this seems like a new trend on the forums. Just gonna use 1 thread for all my cubing goals cuz I don't want to clutter the forum. Down below are the cubes I practice and what I average/what my goals are for them:

2x2:
PBs- 0.42/1.48
Average- 2.5
Goal- finish eg-1, sub 2.5

3x3:
PBs- 7.13/8.98
Average- 9.7-10.3
Goal- Sub 8

Skewb:
PBs- 1.01/2.61
Average- 3.5
Goal- sub 3.5

To start out, I +2ed out of a 2.61 ao5 on skewb today :( getting closer to a sub 2.5 ao5. So yeah.... That's it. Probably gonna post something every week or something.

I'm just gonna update every monday, so it hasn't really been a week but who cares. Choked out of a sub-4 ao100 on skewb, got 3 more sub-3 averages I think. One was on track for pb but got a counting 4 rip. Gonna try learning some more ns cases this next week for some of the bad cases. That's about it. See y'all next monday.

Skewb PB ao5, learned some more EG1s. Nothing super exciting. Should I go more in depth with these summaries, or do you like the quick and to the point? Also I might do something where I do an Ao5 or 12 at the start of the week and then one at the end of the week for 2x2 3x3 and Skewb, and see if I have any improvement. Please let me know :)

I think your current posts are fine, though you can do what you want :)

Haven't posted here for awhile.

SO my last post was june, how much have I improved? In 2x2, I now consider myself averaging sub-3, have done 3 ao100s and 2 of them were low 2.9 and one was a mid 2.8. Have broken no pbs but got a pretty nice set of scrambles for a 1.62 average:
1. (0.94) U2 F2 R2 U' F' R2 U2 F U'
2. 1.82 U R' U' R U2 F' U2 F U2
3. (2.97) R2 U2 R F R2 U2 F2 U2 F2
4. 1.44 R U' F' R2 U2 R' F' U R'
5. 1.60 R F2 U' R' F' R2 U2 R2 U'
Also I'm attempting to learn EG (again lol)

Next, 3x3. I have dropped about a half second in 3x3. I'm now averaging around 10.6 and broke all my pbs. 7.55 single, 9.33 ao5, 10.06 ao12. My main goal for the next couple months is to get a sub-10 ao12, shouldn't be too hard.

Now, for skewb, the most hated WCA event (maybe except clock). I'm now averaging 3.5. Honestly, I've taken a bit of a break from practicing as I would rather get better at 2x2 and 3x3. But, I did break my pb single with a 1.01 and you can find that video here:



So that's about it, also I've since reached 700 subs on my yt channel (ty so much guys :D) and yea. Hoping to experiment with some different types of content in the future as I don't really think I have much of a theme to my channel y'know. Anyway that's about it. Depending on community feedback or whatnot I may keep posting my improvement here but I may not. Hope y'all have a good day, cya!
