11 Year Old's First Blindsolve. :)

[Brian]

This is my first successful blindsolve, my brother videotaped it while we were on the airplane. The total time was about 10:20 or so. Finally. Now I just need to get one in competition.

Nice job! What method do you use?

Nice job! What method do you use?

I orient corners and then use a J Perm to solve them.
Then I use Old Pochmann with the T and both J's to solve the edges.
Not the fastest method, but it will do for now. I want to learn M2 and maybe the Y perm for corners later on. I have my big brother to teach me.

I can't watch the video right now but congrats on your first solve!

Wow.. I see you've already competed in BLD, without a successful solve at home? I would never have the guts to do that.

 

[andatude]

[Ton]

That's the same as I use. But I'm learning M2. I've solved it succesfully once (out of 1 try) with M2 OP

Wow, this makes me want to learn BLD, just to get the feeling of the first solve.
And congrats on the first solve. I can image the people around you and their reaction.

Good Job! I am still working on bld and I am almost there.

I had my first successful BLD when I was 11, too. I had a successful solve this past year (I'm currently twelve), so I should be on the youngest BLD solvers list on the WCA statistics page. For whatever reason, I'm not.

They probably don't know your birth date. Try to contact Ron or Clément.

What kind of irresponsible person enters a BLD event and wastes stage time even if they've never had a success in the event before? :rolleyes:

I did. I knew I could do it but I just never succeeded. My first succesful blind was actually a 2/2 for multi-blind

I guess I am irresponsible. Shame on me wasting everyone's time.
