As you can see, I panicked after I finished 2nd pair and did a really bad solution for my last two pairs that led to the LLSkip. This is the solution I should of done had I not panicked:

But please can you give one of your sub-4s to me I need one
 
Alright, I've finished up all of my comps for the year so I thought I'd give you guys a quick recap on what has been a great year for cubing for me.

I started off the year with a 9.43 3x3 PR average and an 8.06 PR single, and i've now finished the year with a 7.68 PR average and a 6.02 PR single! I'm super happy with this improvement and I hope and continue to improve next year.

I went to 17 competitions this year, which is 8 more than last year. I'm really happy with my performance at most of these comps. My favorite comps were definitely BASC 41 (February), where I finally broke through the slump I had been in for around 2 months, and got 3 averages (9.32, 9.27, 9.08) that were sub my old PR average (9.43) and another one that was very close (9.69), Claws Up Summer (June) where I got my first good official average (8.25 PR from 8.87), and CubingUSA Western Championship (June) which was the comp with my biggest breakthrough in my official results (8.24 and 7.93 PR averages). My goal for next year is to get a sub 6 official average.

I also improved my 4x4 results quite a bit this year, but not quite as much as I would have liked, and I didn't practice too much in the second half of the year. Hopefully I can become sub 27 next year!

I barely practiced 5x5 this year, probably because of the lack of the event at my comps. However, I did improve a bit, and I hope I can become sub sub 1 next year.


Overall 2023 was a great year for cubing, hopefully 2024 can be even better!
