12. 43.46

I've heard lots of people talking about listening to music while cubing, which I've never done. But I thought I should give it a go just to see if it makes a difference... Not wanting to do things by halves, I put on Dragonforce
And the results - a new PB single, Ao5 and Ao12 Don't think I turned any faster, but I got less nervous about messing up and so didn't lose control of my PLL's like I sometimes do when I'm on track for a good time.
Quite happy with these results. Hope to have my first sub-30 Ao12 before Xmas.

10. 41.19
11. 41.06
12. 34.85

Finally a sub 40 ao12 for this thread! With freshly lubed Guhong and headphones with 311. (I had been meaning to try cubing with music... thanks for the reminder Godmil!)

...learning full PLL which is slowing down the progression I was previously making...

That happened to me, too. And now that I'm not focused on PLL I think my recognition has slowed, but I am making improvements on F2L speed so hopefully it will all come together as I continue to practice.

1st Solve was X-Cross + PLL skip, nice and easy solve.
2nd Solve was just a lucky F2L, managed to preserve a pair while inserting others.
My cube popped on my 6th solve during PLL (G-Perm).
My 9th solve was again, really lucky F2L, I seemed to have pretty good look-ahead for that! All the rest were pretty much average for me.

nothing amazingly good, other than that 23, but I was really happy to see that I didnt have any really bad solves, all of my bad solves were 32s, except for that 34. consistency is very good for me
