Haha, sorry to keep posting, but I decided to do a one-handed Ultimate Relay (2 3 4 5 6 7). The time was 28:12.23. I think this might even be better than the sum of my PBs for OH 2345 relay, OH 6x6, and OH 7x7. So it was REALLY good.

Wow... My 7x7x7 is a week old right now, so I can't imagine OHing it in less than an hour. Could you get a 7x7x7 OH on video? (Not that I don't believe you)

Dan Cohen has a 7x7 OH video- it took him about 15 minutes.

As if 1 PB wasn't enough for a day.
Took another crack at it before turning in for the night.
Still 3x3 ofc.

I am starting to feel fast. Really fast.
 
I am now averaging sub 2 on 5x5. The hours and hours of practice yesterday paid off.

Centers: 30-33 seconds
Edges: 50- 1:00 (Depends on edge parity)
3x3 solve: 25 seconds

That was in response to a previous PB of mine. I've since beaten the time on his video.
 
Story Time


I was using my stackmat for some U perm practice, since I love them so much... O_O

I was easily breaking 1.50 seconds, and I was happy with that.
I got a 1.2x, and then I thought "I'm determined to sub-1 second a U perm; i know it will take a lot of accuracy with a lot of speed, but I should be able to do that."

My record was [I think] 1.13 seconds, which was insane when I got it a week or so ago...

Kept practicing, 1.11, PB. :) It may have been a +2 though, but I wasn't sure. Very next U perm: 1.11 again. But this was 1 exact turn off, so it was a +2. Very next U perm: 1.11 AGAIN. This was definitely legit, and so I was happy with my PB (& 3 in row too).

Some several solves later, and a new PB: 1.09. :)

Now being happy about these PB's, I showed my nearby sister a little bit a speed that would get an eyebrow raise and a 'wow' at the least, but I was getting a small lockup on two tries as if there was really some sort of pressure. But then: 0.97.

!

I'm happy, but I know I'll break it soon after all of this.

If I ever sub-.75 a U Perm, I'll make another post about it.

---Oh, and this was done with a Rubik's storebought cube. My DIY's better, but for U perms specifically, the Rubik's seems to be better for it (unless I lockup).

---This U perm was with the Bar on the F face, and counter-clockwise.

Web,

I love that alg. I've done sessions of over 100 on all my PLLs like this. (except I used my keyboard, I don't have a stackmat.)
My best single was 0.81, and best average was 0.91.

My accomplishments today:
Code: 
       Single Average
H	3.13	3.53
Uccw	1.59	1.93
Ucw	1.69	1.91
T	2.88	3.35
OH PLL practice.
My goal is to average sub-4 seconds on all my OH PLLs.
 
I've moving in OH cubing a little bit now, and soon BLD, and so I'll probably start by practicing my PLL's and the OLL's I know OH first.

I just did the same U perm in 8.88 OH. Embarrasing, but I don't really practice it so bleh. :P

8.88
7.47
7.93
8.19
7.25

Haha so bad.

EDIT:

7.02
7.33
7.13
6.83
6.78

So sudden. :)

Or maybe he had 2 solves with cases he knew.

Big improvement Daniel!

Thanks, Emmerson! I hope I will be getting times like yours soon.

I got a non-lucky single PB for one-handed solving while dead tired. It was 20.65 which is actually my first 20 ever including lucky solves (at least, I think).

I am finding it pretty funny and cool that the next time I compete in OH, I am going to be hoping for the same times I hoped for when I last competed in 3x3x3 speed. I never actually thought about that before, haha.
