Do you use Yau? Try to plan out your first 2 centers in inspection, if not be able to predict where the pieces end up. Take some time to find some really fast parity algs, it can help take off a second in about 15 minutes. Other tips I can't give you because I don't know what method you use.

I use yau

I use yau

My first 3 cross edges used to be the work part of my solves, try to work on those if they are slow to you. During edge pairing do you use freeslice, or something like 323? If you just use freeslice, then consider different edge pairing methods with Yau. When you are doing your centers and working on a certain color and see a bar already paired for another center, try line it vertically with the center that you are working on so that you don't have to rebuild it later.

I use 3-2-2-3 or something like, that, and yes, sometimes I do that, I think working on my 3 cross edges will help, thanks.

Well whaddya know... practice actually works. This after almost exclusive practice on 4x4 last two days. I guess I should practice more. Do I have to do race to sub-1:00 now or can I do something in between like race to sub-1:10?

Yeah, you could do like 1:05 or 1:10. That's what I think I will do too because it is going to be a big leap from 1:15 to 1:00. Great job!

[mark49152]

I nearly entered this week. Got an ao5 of 1:48.99 on the first 5 scrambles, then 6 and 7 were both DNF. Oh dear!

I'm looking forward to doing it again next week though (but not quite as badly).
