No, my SR2, which has been my main for almost a year. Every PB has been on that cube. I very rarely use any other cube.

LOL, imagion if you have used a good cube all that time. :) LOL. Nah, SR2 is pretty decent. Except the cornertwists. How do you like the AoLong so far? Another piece of paper weight?

How long did it take you to do the 1000 F2L? Although I committed to do mostly LL training I might want to have a go at that when my shoulder gets better. It's is getting worse last two days so maybe healing has begun ;)

Just done the Race to Sub 30 and I've regressed by about a month. I'm back at 48s. I really need to find some time to practise properly or at least practise more efficiently.

Wow, big difference 30 - > 48. Hang in there and you will be back at your normal level soon. :)

I've been using it for PLL drills to try to break it in a bit. I need to find time to lube and tension it. It certainly has potential to compete with my SR2.

Btw, I never have corner twists, but I have it pretty tight.

That's a bummer about the shoulder. Can you do any cubing at all?

I did 1800 over about 2 weeks - usually 100-200 per day, with a couple of crazy days where I did 500 and 300.

Oh, sorry, my bad. I thought you where sub 30 (by fininishing the sub 30 race) and now fell back to 48 :) The good thing about being at 48 secs average is that by normal practice you can win a few seconds per week :)

Although 2FL practice is about the best part to do I really do not like it. I prefer, cross + 1 or LL or complete solves. But if sub 20 does not come natural I might do also a few hundreds per day. Pretty sure that will work. In the last month I have been replacing some slow PLL's. And allready I can use the new ones in timed solves.

I allready did Ao100 full solves before breakfast this morning.. I tried slow solving with perfect lookahead since my shoulder f# hurts. Not to shabby and pretty pleased with sub 23!

That Jb is one of my fastest and favourite algs.

I use this Y: F [R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F'] R U R' U' F' [16]
Fingering for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R52VOcrphwI
Note the J/T-permish section in the middle.

Although the Ua mirror is easy, I find that Ub hard because of the U' moves (I do M slices with left). If you're also an M leftie, try this instead: M2 u M' u2 M' u M2

Nice alg for BLD, I might learn that.

Interesting... I do M slices with my right hand, but M2 U M U2 M' U M2 is my fastest PLL. It's also one of my favourite algs, after M' U M U2 M' U M, which has similar fingertricks.

Me too, M' with right hand. :) I used to hate M but I seem to get pretty fast with it. I have H, Z, Ub and several OLL's with M now.

I just did my afternoon Ao100. From solve 55 I was in the zone. I had my third (ever) sub 20 Ao12 :) Jay!

It's great to see everyone improving... although slightly frustrating. I'm trying to catch up with the over-40 benchmarks but they keep getting faster! ;)

I just did an Ao50 (lunchtime) and got my first sub-23 Ao50. After 20 solves it was comfortably sub-22 but when I saw that number, I screwed up my next dozen solves before regaining my composure!

Sitting in my car often seems to result in good times... a warmed up cube turns really well (left in the car all morning) and natural light helps my recognition.

We have pretty similar times. Let's race to Sub-20 :)

The last person to mention similar times was Rocky0701 and he has gotten a lot faster since that comment! You seem to be improving pretty fast as well so I've no doubt you'll beat me to sub-20.

I've started doing the race to sub-20 thread with the intention that it will force me to focus. I doubt I'll be sub-20 this year (practice is too eratic) but I hope to get there eventually! :)
 
It's pretty hot over here as well. Even with my door open, windows down and the slight breeze it was still roasting.

Fortunately my Weilong stickers didn't start peeling or chipping in the heat. :)

I was on a famility vacation and had a MoYu WeiSu packed. I was really temped to whip it out a few times but I did not. The temps where extremely high (in South of Holland/ West of Germany where we were). Now the stickers of the white side are not in their spots but half on the cubies. Funny looking..Like they slipped of. I have plenty wite 4X4 stickers lying around so no problem here :)
 
Interesting algs people use for their PLLs. I use what I think is the standard Y perm. That's the one that is two OLLs.
[F R U' R' U' R U R' F'] [R U R' U' R' F R F']

I've also tried the M-slice U perms before but I'm so used to the 2-gen algs that I still use those.

What exactly happened to the guy? I've seen a few of his videos but didn't know he was ever here or any of this back story.
Click to expand...

Well, when he started a topic about being color neutral he got a hard time and some guy said CN is not worth the hassle because single cross is faster bla bla. Then when he started a topic about the PLL's he was asked 'how fast are you, because why would I want to watch your video's' or something like that. When he replied 'I am between 10 12 average', he was asked for proof. He said he was busy with job and study but that he would make a video. So then they kept harraasing him for the video. And when he showed a video with some sub 10's or even faster he was called 'Fake'. Then ofcourse he left. I would not take that kind of crap eighter.
 
I watched some of jskyler's vids. I thought he was a nice guy and pretty good teacher. Unfortunate that people weren't nice to him.

On another note, I just broke my PB single with a 8.74 solve!!! And that's over a whole second better! Soooo happy! Unfortunately it will be harder to break too.
