When did you achieve the milestone of sub -20?

I started learning how to speedcube around the end of 2006, maybe November or something, since that's my join date on this forum. Based on old Facebook posts (lol), I took an average of 100 in October of 2007 and it was 20.07. I don't remember for sure, but I assume I started averaging under 20 consistently soon after that. So a little less than a year?
 
Feliks is a machine.

I learned to solve a cube 3 years ago, didn't learn a faster method till last summer. I'm ~18-19 average now. I'd say it took about 6 months after starting to focus on speed.
 
I don't recall when I got my first unofficial sub-20 time,
(more recently I can remember my first sub-20 OH time)
however as I recall it took ~3 years to get a sub-20 average of 12.

If you're going to do the average at home, make it an average of 12. I remember doing my first average of 12 under 20 about 13 months after I had started cubing. I had my brother enter the times into the computer so I wouldn't get nervous.

I know, and I usually do. I'm just not fast enough to get a sub 20 avg of 12. :p
