JDAW6’S Cubing Progression // 20% ZBLL // 30% WV // I’ve Broken 12 SRs OFFICIALLY

[Davian]

I also use flip and DNF more than standard cubes. Here are the four main reasons I DNF-

• Small mistakes where I do the wrong move by like 1 tick, which if I don't notice messes up the whole solve.
• Doing the turn with wrong pin order. I usually notice this and it just slows me down a lot, but sometimes I DNF.
• At the end, if I miss by 1 tick, this is roughly the same level as a +2 but in Clock it counts as a DNF.
• Whenever I make a mistake, it is harder to see and notice as it's easier to notice bright colours that don't match rather than 2 small clocks that are 1 o'clock apart. Also sometimes the mistake is on the back so you can't see it at all.

While no-flip would obviously have a lower success rate, flip is still easy to DNF purely because of the nature of the event.

Half of those were overshooting, and the others may accur if you turn to fast. Try to turn fast but accurate.

True, but I feel like it's much more common to miss the last move by 1 tick, and I think that should be counted as a separate mistake.

Before this solve I told myself, it would be cool af if I broke my pb and it happened lol.

First sub-10? Congrats!

@Davian I want to learn noflip but the easiest one, what video do you suggest. I avg 13 now.

Either 7-Simul or sheerin. A good sheerin tutorial you can watch is from Caleb Trelford, and the best tutorial for 7s is from tommy cherry.

I tried both the tutorials are too hard

What is difficult about it?

It isn’t easy to understand/do. I just want the Simplest method that doesn’t make me flip.

If the only thing you’re looking for is ease to learn, I guess bpaul? it!s not the fastest 7 simul method, but it’s a okay enough jumping point to 7-simul when you are ready. If you want to ease into the process, LexiCubes has a bpaul Flip tutorial that’s nice and quick, and somewhat easy to understand for me, and KiwiCuber has a regular bpaul 7 simul tutorial that’s no-flip.

Also, flip isn’t bad by any stretch. Have an optimized pin order, practice, and it’s probably 80-90% as good at 7simul. BlueJacket has a wonderful YT tutorial on how to be good with flip, and I’ve used some of it to average low-to-mid 7. If you keep messing up with flip, get ready to make it double with 7-simul.

 

[Clock_Enthusiast]

7-Simul isn’t a very easy method. It took me a LOT of practice to get down, and you won’t learn it instantly. Tommy’s tutorial helped me the most, but I had to rewatch it several times and take notes and follow along.

 

[JDAW6]

I don’t feel like I wanna learn 7simul but I know it is better for me. I think I’ll stay with flip even if I’m slower

Thats a nice choise, i learnwd 7simul wheb i averaged sub 7. Just learn sheerin or 7s whenever you feel like your ready. Edit: this has already been said, but watch this video!

Thats the tape mod, but maybe its to tall, maybe cut a bit off?

pb fail by 0.02 is cool

This is my favorite 7-Simul tutorial and I think the one that explains it the easiest.

Unfortunately it's by Caleb Trelford

 

[Clock_Enthusiast]

I highly recommend using electrical tape for clock mods.

Idk what’s wrong with Caleb trelford

dun have non’ of that, bruv.


Also I use x2 flips now.
