Garf's Progression Thread - Beating Hard Levels in GD (Hardest is Bloodbath)

[Garf]

Uh, I've been wondering how I get better at turning a cube as soon as I pick it up to solve. ex. for 2x2, it's hard for me to turn it as soon as I pick it up. I either lock up or the cube slips out of my hands.

Same problem for me too, the cube just falls out of my hand and whenever it was going to be a s25 solve for me (which is good for me) and then while doing my pll it locks up so much.

I just got a 46.73 on megaminx. It was my first megaminx speed solve of the day. In all fairness, it was a hand scramble, but there weren't too many easy-start solutions, and I had a bit of trouble recognizing the PLL. However, my solutions for each pair were phenomenal, and I had little pauses during that solve. I wished I had gotten that on cam.

You're getting pretty good!

Do you plan learning full oll on mega?

Probably after WA champs, during the summer. Or after sub-45.

It's been a little bit since I have posted on this thread. WA champs is tomorrow. @CatSharked and @joshisbored, it will be a pleasure to meet you.
I don't have any time-specific goals. All I know is that I want to PR in the events I have times in, and do well in the new events.

 

[Running for cube]

What events are you competing in?

Good luck! Also, any updates on the comp you were planning on organizing?

Rockies will happen, most likely somewhere in Utah/Arizona
