If you want a 3x3 mech, then a Mirror Blocks is really fun or an Axis Cube like the Daingshen Millstone (not the nicest to turn, but one to choose if you want to have panic attack if you see it scrambled).

Lightake.com is setting off my Avast, saying there is malware. This never happened before, anyone else's malware scanners being set off by lightake.com?

After passing the sub-15 mark (averaging high 12s to mid 14s), is it advisable to start focussing on turn speed?

I've always been working on look ahead and calm, smooth turning, and I still seem to be improving but I was just wondering.

Your signature...if your ao100 and ao500 are in the 14s, Id change your sig to say your roux avg is 14s

That is because I have not done an average of 100 or 500 in a very long time. I regularly do averages of 5 and 12 though.
However, I will change in until I decide to do one.

I think that you should turn faster when you average sub 11? The beauty of Roux is that you DON'T really need to have really fast TPS to get fast times.

Did you mean 'you don't need to turn fast'?
anyway, I've seen Thom solve and his turn speed is legendary (legendarily slow). Whilst biggreen and waffle turn insanely fast.

I'll try turning faster... Although that usually gives many lockups.
