so I inserted last slot normal did U2 sexisledge OLL + J perm, if would insert last pair i would get J perm without AUF at the end so, it might be sub 7
Great day, actually 2 days =)

I think I am improving... again...and again. Basically, I am non-stop improving, since I started cubing

thats probably UWR for fastest first solve of a year

 

[Aussie]

My goal of today.. well I guess yesterday now.. was to get a PB on the 6x6 before 2016. That didn't happen, but my first solve of 2016 was a PB. I beat it by 5 seconds with a time of 2:31.83. I got double parity as well!! I was so excited I started screaming and then hit my head on an overhang of the fire place. Anyway, a great start to the year for me!! Hopefully I can repeat that in my competition tomorrow..

 

[JustinTimeCuber]

First solve of 2016: 13.35+ (-_-)

I'm hoping that this isn't a bad omen...

e: did one more solve...

[PenguinsDontFly]

lol CFOP with blockbuilding F2L

and sub-6 first solve of the year wat

lol I think my second fastest single is a F2L skip and accidental ZBLL

it was pretty lucky and i got a 6.41 right after but failed the average miserably

Youre not supposed to be fast with CFOP.

never underestimate F2L skips

thats probably UWR for fastest first solve of a year

doubt it. feliks probably got an ao 5 thats faster than this in his first 5 solves of 2016.

 

[NeilH]

last solve of 2015: 10.40
first solve of 2016: 12.30

two awesome solves

 

[IRNjuggle28]

Solved 5 prepared and memorized cubes in a row blindfolded in 2:44.81, after getting 4/5 a bunch of times in a row. They were all CFOP, and I didn't use mnemonics to remember anything. Just did the solves over and over until they stuck.

I made all the solutions either easy or distinctive, which helped memory a bit. A couple extended crosses, a couple forced 1LLLs, easy 2LLLs, or EPLLs... some other stuff... All in all, the project took a long time to memorize and successsfully execute. I was memorizing on and off for a couple hours. 265 total STM memorized.
