Sub-10 single or globally sub-10?

most likely global, singles are very luckdependent and asking someone how long it took them to get lucky is pretty stupid.

That's what I thought, but Competition Cuber says that he's sub-10 and his competition results are not close to sub-10, so that was the second most likely possibility.

His results in the forum race thread are pretty close to sub10

What you average at home.
Check out what I average on @JustinTimeCuber's thread. My last average was 9.4
I've had a really fast improvement rate these days.

I have been cubing for over 3 years and I'm not sub 10 yet. Based on my improvement on 3x3 it would take like 20 more years (JK it would probably be a few more if I actually practice 3x3 regularly.)

6 years of cubing barely sub 15 globally.
As my great-grandmother used to say, if you can't get sub-10 within a year then you are no good for cubing and you better pursue a career as a cheese maker or as a cutler.

That may be true if you only practice 3x3 but in general I don't think it's enough time to get sub10

I've been cubing for over 5 years and average around 11. I'd imagine I could get sub-10 within 1 or 2 years.

I've been solving for 7 years and I'm still slow. Averaging around 18 seconds. But also cubing hasn't been a priority in my life. Most of my "cubing time" has been devoted to organizing and planning competitions rather than solving. Which honestly, I'm totally ok with.
If you look at the graph below you can see how quickly I progress from just learning to solve at around a minute to getting to 20ish seconds. Happened very fast, in a matter of a couple months. But the progress levels off. And this will be different for each person to some degree. I think reaching sub 15 for sure and possibly sub-10 is possible for anyone but the amount of time devoted plays a larger factor than the overall time.

14 years and counting. I'll let you guys know when I'm sub 10. Probably around 2040 or so.
I mean I still have a sub 15 ao5 and all opportunities are formed by luck but only the skillful once grasp it.
