I got my Guhong v2 in this new year. I am getting some good results with it. Still getting used to it. I never handled such good cube before. Most of my turns overshoot. :rolleyes:

Very nice improvement! Your times dropped more than other normal weeks. On average you dropped 3-4 seconds a week but suddenly you dropped 7 seconds this time. You'll get used to your new cube. What were you using before?
 
Ima give this a try rofl

Round 140 (ZZ H only) - 34.26
32.08, 31.04, 29.22, 29.34, 27.80, (40.83), 33.04, 28.41, 38.52, 31.18, (27.27), 34.26

solved using only H OLLs, if i get another case, i corner cycle to a H case, was curious how fast i'd be able to do it lololol
 
Round 140

Brian, I stop entering with Roux for a while. I decided to go back to CFOP. But Color neutral this time.

Average: 36.29
30.57 35.61 (25.93) (45.20) 34.77 37.91 33.50 41.23 32.53 39.49 32.12 45.18

I did not practice a lot today.. And these are my first solves of the evening. After a 25 on a green cross I was thinking I might be sub 30 soon.. LOL but then came the forties..


EDIT: Did all of them on real CN since the others where all on green:

Average: 32.63
W30.25 G35.81 R32.31 Y28.51 B30.37 O40.90 O30.79 B34.68 B(45.89) B35.20 W27.45 W(24.67)

Round 140 OH
Average: 35.31
46.92, 35.23, 30.40, 36.22, 31.19, (29.42), 34.55, 31.45, 37.53+, 34.19, 35.39, (48.86)

It seems like I don't really improve at all. I might stop OH for a while and try out ZZ or Roux instead. I consider switching to ZZ for OH if I manage to get good at it.

Thanks. I was using ShengEn FIII before. Did you remember a thread where I asked you how to improve the performance of FIII a while ago, because I was so annoyed with the feel of FIII. You suggested me to buy a Guhong. It's totally worth its price. I have only practiced with it two days and already it's giving me better results. This is also my first white cube. My previously used cubes are all black. I think my recognition is a bit better in this white cube. Still a long way to go.

P.S. Each piece of guhong can be seperated in two parts. Are there always gaps in pieces of Guhong? Though I don't think it affects the performance of the cube.

Oh yes, I remember now. The FIII guy haha. Glad you got that Guhong. Knew you wouldn't regret it. Actually, the corner pieces can be separated into three parts. But anyway, the gaps are fine. If it's an empty gap (space) then you could try pushing it together. Otherwise, it's just the normal gap which is how it's made.
 
Round 140
Average = 44.80

(34.34) 44.47 44.47 49.83 43.12 39.89 43.04 45.05 42.25 46.95 48.95 (53.71)

Not my best average but just around a second away. Very bad crosses but lucky with getting f2l pairs put together while solving other pairs.

I tried pushing it together. But gaps are still there. The only downside of the gap is that i guess when I applid Maru lube in it, it went right through the gaps inside the piece. I also regret applying Maru lube because it made the cube very fast for me.
 
Round 140

Average: 29.174

Times:
28.14, 29.41, (22.88), 30.40, 27.34, 27.78, 25.40, 37.50, 26.94, 34.18, (38.87) ,24.08

Wow, new cubes can certainly do a lot for times. First sub-30 average!
 
Round 140 - Petrus

Average: 49.36
Best: 35.04 (new PB, woo!)
Worst: 68.62

Times: 57.61, 48.21, 43.69, 61.74, 52.53, 40.61, 40.67, (35.04), 46.43, (68.62), 40.57, 50.63


Wow.... I was sort of all over the place today. Basically the difference between a 40 and a 50 for me is step one, so that clearly needs the most work. But hopefully I can finish learning a full COLL and practice the F2L enough to be more consistent than that. Also, yay for really lucky 35 second solves where everything goes right! XD
