Try doing an average of 12.

This is an expert topic?

I don't think the difference is important at all, just pick the one that is faster and go with that. It's all mental anyway.

 

[StachuK1992]

qq. I actually like this thread. Sure, it might be (okay, it is...) in the wrong area, but I'd like to see how peoples' times compare when standing/sitting.

Still, we should do averages of 12, not 5.

 

[Logan]

Yeah, an average of 12 would be better. Yeah I couldn't really find a good place to put it. I was thinking off-topic but it IS cube related.

I'll put up my avg of 12 tonight or tomorrow, because I've gotta go to a wedding

EDIT: You guys gotta put up your averages too.

 

[StachuK1992]

Both averages of 12

Sitting: 24.46
Pretty average for me

Standing: 23.75
Ummm...better than my regular averages.

Thanks for making this thread.

I probably won't practice at home standing, but maybe in competitions.

What I do notice, though, is that my hands are a lot more jittery after a standing-up average. Like, very jittery, which means I have a higher chance of dropping the cube, especially in competition...

I can't sub-20 while standing...ever

 

[StachuK1992]

hands too shaky?

by the way, I know you're online, and I REALLY don't understand why facebook tells me otherwise

No it's the angle of solving that bothers me...My hair get in the way if I look down too much

While standing. ( I stopped at 8 solves seeing that I really can't sub-20 while standing and my only sub 20 was a CMLL skip.) I had to flick my hair out of the way every now and then.

IT WAS A CMLL SKIP

 

[miniGOINGS]

Average: 14.84

...what the toaster....

 

[cmhardw]

I'm too tired to do an average right now, I will tomorrow - and maybe some BLD solves too. I've found that I always do better in competition when I stand. I stand for every solve in every event in competitions.

[Kian]

I am far too lazy to do solves while standing. What is this, a decathlon?

 

[dbax0999]

For the magic. I do way better standing. But for 3x3 I don't think it makes much of a difference

 

[JTW2007]

It's a pretty easy decision if you have hair as long as mine. Plus I do better sitting anyway.

 

[Lucas Garron]

My first competition (standing): 1:29.71 avg5
My latest competition (sitting): 13.21 avg5

Difference: 1:16.50

So, obviously, sitting is much better.
