[Unofficial] Ryan Reese AO5-13.78

[RyanReese09]

Wanted something faster on tape, failed the average of 12, but thought I'd share .

New video, realized that in windows movie maker I somehow chopped out 2 solves.

I never knew you were opposite cross neutral. I also lol'ed at the "WTF head scratch" on the 17. Nice average though and I liked the angle you used.

I just started very recently. I prefer white but I can do yellow too.


The 17 I knew was fail as soon as I misinserted my F2L pair wrongly. I was | | close to throwing my cube.

It's a meh average but..I never knew I turned that fast o_O. I try to turn slow so I can lookahead..
Wtf PLL at 1:49..

The H-Perm in the first solve was pretty quick too. I need to starting do M layer turns with my left hand instead of my right.

I average 1.1-1.2 H perm. I'm trying to start double flicking when I practice. Pretty nice but not fluid/fast enough (transitioning from M to U) to use in solves.

The M slice turn hand shouldn't make a difference should it? I'm left handed..so..

The problem is that I double flick both M and U so my middle finger is lagging behind as I transition from M2 to U2. One day I'll do a left handed Ao100 just to get my left hand better then lefty U2s and M2s won't be as awkward.

Needs more smooth fingertricks. You seem to be doing a lot of U U or U' U', learn to double flick. Also double flick on M2, or you can do it with both ring fingers

I can double flick, though in real solves it's too awkward to do. I find it nearly as fast as just doing U U or U' U'.
I have many awkward moments in that ao5 alone..such as F' double left sexy F. Not my favorite OLL.

I'm working on the M2 double flick, hopefully I'll be doing it in solves soon. It's potentially much faster for me then single flicks (I hate single M flicks..so slow)
