[Member Intro] Hello!

[eric8he]

Hey guys!

Been reading the forums for a while, and thought I would make an introduction post. I've been cubing seriously for about a year. Before, I have solved for fun for about 7-8 years now (the best 3x3 average I ever got was around 50s with bad CFOP).

Puzzles I do, method, main, and averages:
3x3 - sub 12, CFOP, full PLL, and all OLLs but dots. Working towards predicting first pair in my inspection now. Maybe WV afterward. GAN 11 M Pro, UV coated.
4x4 - ~1min flat, Yau (all four cross edges before L4C). Working towards better 3-2-3 edge pairing - lots of pausing now, as well as a faster F2C. QiYi MS 4x4.
5x5 - ~1min55s, Yau (all four cross edges before L4C). Working towards better center efficiency (my F2C and L2C really suck). YJ Mini ZhiChuang M 5x5.

Just for fun:
2x2 - sub 6, LBL. YJ MGC 2x2.
Pyraminx - ~14s, LBL-but in reverse. Old ShengShou pyraminx - I haven't bothered to get a newer pyra.

Hoping to be sub 10 by 2022!

Knowing how to solve a cube for 8 years nice. You have some good experience out there.

Happy cubing, M D' M' S' U' S D S' U S!

Welcome
Why is your 5x5 4mm smaller than your 4x4?

I know you probably meant this but make sure to learn dot olls before advanced subsets like WV
