CubingHulayian's Cubing Progression Thread: Oh no.... Comp in 2 weeks.

[CubingHulayian]

Hey y'all,

I have been seeing all these progression threads, so I created my own!

My PB's are:
3x3: Single = 31.63 AO5 = 40.63 (Achieved in comp)
2x2: Single = 6.74 AO5 = 10.90
Pyraminx: Single = 13.35 (Achieved in comp) AO5 = 15.90

As of today, I have around 5 days to a competition where I am doing 3x3, 2x2 and pyraminx.
Hope you all enjoy my progression thread!

I feel like I need to practice more pyraminx as sometimes, the yellow side I start on takes too long to do so I might need to become colour neutral.

Colour neutrality is definitely one of the most important improvements you can make on Pyraminx, and it's reasonably easy to learn CN than other events (imo)

I tried colour neutral on a few practice solves but I don't understand it just yet.

Just take it slow, don't start with practice solves. I recommend doing slow paced solves while trying to work out what the best colour is in a scramble.

I just practiced some more Pyraminx today!

avg of 5: 21.00

1. 18.00 U L' R' B U' R' L R' r'

That exact, perfect .00 on the ao5 is what made me proud.

I just got home from my 3rd competition ever! So highlights!

New stuff! I bought a Moyu Weilong Magnetic Pyraminx and my first ever GAN! A GAN Skweb M.
