I got a 48.22 on 4x4. Was a hand scram, but not necessarily an easy scram

I know, I know. Remember I got that 47 but also didn’t count that. At least my 49 in weekly comp counts

Still not too far off of my PB.

I got a 15.90 ao5 in weekly comp and two of the solves had gperm cases. the ga and the gd i am quite fast on the ga already but weas slightly slower with the gd. really good average for me tho

i guess today is my 4x4 day lol. I got a 59.24 ao5 in weekly comp. three solves in a row were sub 1. WOOHOO

Gd is still better tho. I'm pretty good with all but Gc.

I have full control over all of the gperms now. almost instant recognition-execution.

Hello fellow 3, 4, and 5 grinder

Hello fellow 3, 4, and 5 grinder

ugh there's more of you? What about 4, 6, 8 grinders?

 

[gsingh]

I'll grind 6, but I'm not grinding 8

Hello fellow 3, 4, and 5 grinder

?? I'm a 5, 3, and 4 grinder, but uh, hello to you too.

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

?? I'm a 5, 3, and 4 grinder, but uh, hello to you too.

Wait, you don't grind 4, 3, 5? Man, you guys really need to get around more and grind some different events

 

[gsingh]

?? I'm a 5, 3, and 4 grinder, but uh, hello to you too.

My bad bro. I should've known that you were grinding 5 and 3, not 3 and 5

You are forgiven

nice, I got a 55.72 on 4x4 with edge flip parity. i'm able to sorta tell if I'm going to get a parity case during f2l so I flow into the parity alg without pausing now. Maybe i'm making sense, maybe not. I'm improving. woohoo.

 

[1x1 wr holder!]

I think this is my fastest double parity solve yet:
56.20: B' U2 F U' F2 D' F2 B L' F2 B D2 F2 L2 D2 L2 B2 L2 B' L2 Rw2 U F Rw2 F' Uw2 R2 D' Fw2 U' D2 R2 D Rw F' U2 L' Uw2 B U2 Fw Uw R U2 Fw' Rw'(1/15/2024)

trying some dual onehanded just for kicks. incase i'm not using the proper name, I'm doing two cubes at once. one in my left and one in my right. pretty fun. I'm terrible with my right hand, but when doing the moves on my left hand, I can almost zone out the right hand while still doing the correct moves so it is sort of weird. my brain really takes over and I can do a lot of things that I didn't know I could do. I still can't do any of the long algs with my right since there is no muscle mem, but it is very neat.

for comparison, this is my speed with just my left hand, and yeah, it really shows how bad I am with my right lol:

So, school started for me on Monday, and I'm slowly getting back into the routine and everything. Going to take a quick break from grinding until I certain my grades are stable and bla bla. I got a lot of improvement done over winter break, and cubing was definitely a major portion of my life for what seemed like forever. Sad that I'll have to put it aside for a bit and focus on studies. Really glad I learned full pll over break, but wish I could have gone to a comp. I guess I spent too much time fishing and camping lol. I'm going to look out for a competition in June, and hopefully I'll be driving by then and can take myself.

I'm not sure if I have cold hands...
My computer says that the temperature is 49 deg F, my brother's computer says that it is 70 deg F, Alexa says that it is 58 deg F.
