How Long Did It Take You To Average Sub 20?

[god of rubic 2]

Approximately 240 days.

I was Sub-20 a long time ago, and started cubing before that.

Screw you Kir no times here xP

 

[cubingawsumness]

bout a year but then switched to zz

 

[applemobile]

I voted under 1 month. It was a lie but so what? Made me feel good. Yeah man, try stop me.

 

[Petro Leum]

it would be helpful to define what "sub20" means.

as for single, it was under a month for me.
avg12 sub20 was a month and a half. but that was some serious obsession when i started

I dont think this thread is really meaningful though. and in general, i find progression speed depends on time of practise per day.

I've been speed cubing since about October 2012, and was averaging 1:00-50 seconds, and now im about sub 30, so about 4 months till i was sub 30.

I seriously started speedcubing in August 2011 and reached sub-20 in may 2012
And for the people who might think that i made my ss id in jan 2011. The cube i had then (a local made cube) broke in week or so due to which I had to put a stop to cubing and in August 2011 I bought another cube and started cubing.

I started in June 2011, stopped in Oktober 2011 and restarted in August 2012. So that are a total of 9 months now, or 5 months since restart, and I am still not even sub 30.

 

[PeelingStickers]

my first sub 20 single was about 1 month in, maybe longer.
my first 3 of 5 was about 3 months in
my first 10 of 12 was 5 months in, although I was sub-25 after 2 months...damn that barrier was hard.

 

[Speedmaster]

9 months to get sub 10 of 50, can't remember, when I got my first sub 20 AO 50, but very early i think,

 

[Johnnyman318]

It took me 12 months to get sub-20 averages and within the same month I got sub-15 averages. It was crazy awesome.

 

[scylla]

About 31 years

 

[arcio1]

About six months for me(mo100), because I switched to Roux when I was averaging 21(mo100, too) using CFOP
Counting since switch to Roux, 3 months. Now it's been next 3 months and I'm almost sub15.

 

[Owen]

Haha, over three years later, I'm still not sub-20.

You still progressing? I'm keeping my eye on you! That's pretty damn impressive!

EDIT: I think it was just under a year to get to a sub 20 single, but still no sub 20 avg (had some trouble with cube damage/hand damage/Uni/other arbitrary excuses for mediocrity )
Also I have no idea how anybody can be so quick on computer cubes, although I never really gave them a proper go I guess. They seem overwhelmingly awkward to look ahead with.

 

[Antonie faz fan]

Less than a month now I am sub 16 and now I am stuck

 

[Clarkeeyyy]

Been cubing for about a month and a bit, average 28ish.

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

Took me 2 years and 4 months to get my first sub20 average. A few more months before I was globally sub20.

Is this where I go for pity?

I first learned how to solve a cube in '08 and while I wasn't actively speedsolving in all of that time, I was for a lot of the last 4 years and I'm still not sub-20.

 

[Coolster01]

7 months (started feb 2011, sub 20 nov 2011).

Keep on practicing!
