Caleb Joshua Thomas Road to Sub 7 on 3x3 official average

[BVCuber13]

My average more like 8.8 - 9.3 on 3x3 I just have not done a ao100 in a while

holy cow dude, wait what olls and plls do you not know? (I'm guessing g perms and some of the awkward shapes/dot olls but correct me if I'm wrong)

 

[Cuber2s]

I have been told by James Alonso that my solves have TPS around 8 and my move count is between 75-80 on average my PB single was 51 moves

omg thats insane! I also turn around 8-8.5ish tps on average and people have told me im inefficient .

bro i think @Thomas.Caleb may be more effiecient than you...

I think the difference here, though, is that you global a second or so faster and thus it is more justified, though still probably somewhat inefficient

V perms are the best.

Should this thread to Cubing Progression discussion?

Tbh i think it shouldnt since cubing progressions dont show on home page (really stupid idea btw) and hell get nore help if it stays here for now

 

[Thomas.Caleb]

Should this thread to Cubing Progression discussion?

Yeah but I want it to be seen on the front page

 

[CubeLite]

Yeah but I want it to be seen on the front page

THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS MAN, rules are rules for everyone

 

[CubeLite]

@Thomas.Caleb you aren't doing anything with those eyes, you can't just be "cool" and don't respect the rules because you feel like doing so, I thought you did this by accident so I wasn't going to say anything about this, but it being intentional is absurd, why should EVERYONE see your progress, while the rest are obligated to be hidden??
@abunickabhi pls move this thread to the correct sub form

 

[Thomas.Caleb]

I'm changing this goal to sub 8

 

[Caleb Valenzuela]

So I have had some pretty bad offical results recently so I have decided I have had enough I'm going to put my head down and Grind until I'm sub 7.


Here is my plan
Step 1 finish learning full oll and Pll
Step 2 learn U T and L ZB alg sets
Step 3 Practice lookahead
Step 4 practice TPS
Step 5 Practice planning 2 pairs in inspection.


I hope to achieve a sub 7 average officially by March Next year.

My current 3x3 PBs

Single 5.50
Average of 5 7.35
Average of 12 8.67
Average of 100 9.89



If someone can help me reach this goal please reach out to me.


My Upcoming Comps
Stevenage 10th anniversary
Wiltshire winter 2025
Manchester Favourites II 2026
Devon Winter 2026
Crewe Spring 2026

step 1 is good, but you should make learning ZBLL last, because you don’t need it yet at your level. step 3 becomes step 2 and step 4 becomes step 3, since lookahead and TPS go hand in hand, then practice planning 2 pairs in inspection should be step 4
