Memo: First two edges are memo'd visually and the rest are with letter-pair images. I use audio pairs for the corners.

Execution: Mostly BH for the corners and the edges are done with freestyle/TuRBo.

wut...I thought your PB was low-50 just recently o.O

Though I've been in a similar situation where I suddenly became sub-50 one day

Amazing Zane! You've got to slow down so I can catch up(maybe).
Btw, are the scrambles quite easy?

 

[Enter]

wow great avg Zane!
btw i use all visual memo and my avg is around 3 min. i use old pochmann And sorry if it sounds nooby but what/how do you do audio pairs?

 

[Cool Frog]

You are Inzane

 

[pjk]

Awesome, I love watching this video.

I was just wondering, could someone who uses comms for edges tell me what they would do for the second scramble, with a UF buffer? I'm wondering if I came up with the same ones as someone else would. Scramble like Zane did, with your U-colour on B, and your F-colour on R.

Spoiler

What I came up with:

D2 U R U R' U' R' U' R' U R D2 (cancelled U-perm)
U' R U M' U' R' U M
R U2 (F' U2 F E2 F' U2 F E2) U2 R'
F R2 F' M2 F R2 F' M2
U2 B E' B' U2 B E B'
2flip

Thanks everyone.

It was.

Haha, once you sit the 4x4 down, you'll definitely 'catch up' to me.
I don't remember the scrambles being too easy, but they were pretty nice.

And sorry if it sounds nooby but what/how do you do audio pairs?

I use 2 letters to make 1 monosyllable word or sound. So on average I'll end up with about 4 words/sounds as the corner memo, you just remember how it sounds, it doesn't need to be coherent.

Eg. HE FJ TM LE could be memorised as: 'HE' 'FuJ' 'TiM' 'LE'

I was just wondering, could someone who uses comms for edges tell me what they would do for the second scramble, with a UF buffer? I'm wondering if I came up with the same ones as someone else would. Scramble like Zane did, with your U-colour on B, and your F-colour on R.

I don't use just comms, but here's exactly how I executed it:

L2 D' M2 D L2 D' M2 D
U' R U M' U' R' U M
R2 L M U' M' U2 M U' M' L' R2
x U R2 U' M2 U R2 U' M2
L y' U' M' U2 M U' y L'

R' U2 R2 U R' U' R' U2 r U R U' r'

Haha, and my 5BLD is 7:07. I wanted this one to be 7:08.

Fantastic Zane. I hope you bring the 3x3 BLD world record to Australia.

Fantastic Zane. I hope you bring the 3x3 BLD world record to Australia.

Thanks.
That would be really nice, but I can't see myself accomplishing that any time soon.
