Finally joined the platinum club after successfully solving 5x5x5 blindfolded yesterday! Official results

I had the chance to briefly try it out at WSM. It's very light. The indentations are good for grip although you have to get used to them. Turning is great, it's better than the Galaxy V2 M. Also it's less 'gummy', during algs you lockup less. If only it'd come with brown plastic as well...

Brest?

Old method, old guy :-)

Just received 100 MF3RS. Price / quality of these cubes is really good. I can average sub-9 without any big problems. I would not go as far to say they are a competition to cubes like the Valk 3 or Gan Air. It is too locky for that, I think the springs are a bit too weak as well. But it is...

That's The Cubeman :) Ok ok not THAT old, though I don't know of any other sub 8.5 cuber above 25 years... Nice to see practice pays off, another sub-9 avg in the first round as well.

That is actually quite clever! :D

Hi all, as some of you might know, I'm not very active in competitive speedcubing anymore. Partly because of lack of time to practice and because I'm old :D While I started practicing for the WC I noticed (again) that practicing in public can sometimes be considered annoying by people who are...

Here is a psych sheet for the nation cup so far (top 25 countries included). +------+----------------+----------+---------------------------------+-------+ | Seed | Country | Team Avg | Cuber | Avg |...

Hmmm... Number 14 on the platinum list would be nice. *Gets out 5x5 and closes eyes*

Should probably be specified with which event as well. There are probably some people who have done an event once and then left it at that and THEN after a few years did it again. Not the case here of course :D No worries. I know about the Cubs. Actually know the address by heart because of the...

Thank's Brest. I'm honoured a solve of mine is reconstructed by you! :D

With Yau5. Wow!

Update: did 200 solves with the Valk 3 yesterday and ended up with 8.97 average of 200. Starting to like it even more :)

The Valk 3 is a cube designed with the help of Mats Valk. I got the chance to test it! Summary: It's a fast cube, but like with all cubes it depends on your turning style to determine if this is the right cube for you. It took a few days for me to get used to, which is probably normal for a...

Uff, good question. I think I just googled and found an email address :P

It is him indeed. I once chatted with him on MSN (yes MSN...) back in 2007. He told me he was in the business of import/export of perfumes and stuff. And that the cube was still a part of his life. Great to see he is still cubing :) and doing well in general.

UK comp!! I will definitely try to go to this one :) Who is from Guildford? So I know who I have to try my puppy eyes on for a place to stay :D <3
