I really think it's time for a new cube. I lost at least 5 seconds on at least half of these solves due to the cube locking. The last solve should have been about 1:40, but the cube locked like crazy on OLL, PLL Parity, and PLL. Hmm... x-cube or Mini Dayan+MF8?

Too many sup-1's.
But another great sub-50 solve, which was now non-lucky and with OLL-skip!

Strangely, I do really well during competitions lately and when I practice at home it isn't so great... I like this better than the other way around though, so it's not too bad

Which cube are you currently using? I'm using a SS version I and it locks up on me all the time. I'm going to get the version 3 because I hear good things about it. I have a Dayan + MF8 (regular) and if it weren't for all the popping...I might use it more. I tried to relube it the other day, loosened it a bit, now the inner layers work nice...but the outer layers are even worse.

I tried to relube it the other day, loosened it a bit, now the inner layers work nice...but the outer layers are even worse.

The SS V3 is what I'm using. I love the size, and when aligned properly it is very smooth. I have trouble keeping the layers aligned when turning, and it leads to lock ups. I have a Dayan+MF8 (regular size) but never even stickered it because it feels too big to me.

 

[Jakube]

Round 52: 1:04.65

(1:00.12), 1:00.82, 1:05.21, 1:13.26, 1:00.22, (1:15.25), 1:06.23, 1:00.29, 1:06.60, 1:01.31, 1:06.94, 1:05.60

No single sub 1! Exasperating!

Round 52
1:16.81, 1:16.46, 1:16.45, 1:02.80, 1:10.80, 1:15.04, 1:20.25, 1:18.52, 1:07.81, 1:12.86, 1:16.41, 1:14.25 = 1:14.54
