3:14.86. Previous PB was 3:43.xx. Second solve of the day. Haven't practiced in weeks. Now have to do hw.

Solved 2-6 using full commutators except for OP corners

Wing commutators ?
that's impressive actually , I'm totally the opposite , I can fully use corner commutators , but no edges

Yeah, wing commutators and center commutators.

that's very nice , where did you learn wing comm ?

Intuitive.

It's very simple. Make two pieces interchangeable, replace the one that goes to the other with the third piece interchange the other two, then inverse all you just did.

I already use comms for FU and BD , but I didn't go through anything else , I guess I will try and check this up , are you working on 6BLD too ?

I wish I could work on 6BLD (even though the question wasn't directed to me), but I don't have a 6x6. I should probably go straight for 7x7

If you have a good memory system then I guess you can go straight to 7BLD , but I still use a crappy letter pair with no images so 7BLD will be so much memo for me , I can barely memo all 152 letters of 6BLD , I didn't attempt a full attempt yet , but I guess I will in a couple of weeks

11.25, 15.12, 11.42, 12.27, (30.75), 14.69, 13.36, (9.60), 13.83, 10.42, 12.08, 12.69 = 12.71

(9.60), (13.83), 10.42, 12.08, 12.69 = 11.73

9.60 is my first sub 10 I think.

I don't really know if my memo system is good, but I recently memorized 2 4x4's in about 13 minutes. I wish I could go via 6BLD, but I don't see it happening unless I get tom borrow someones spare 6x6

Solved 7x7 using commutators (except corners)

Yesterday at Coastal Cubing in Oregon I achieved 2 of my long term goals for competition.
I got a sub 10 single: a 9.23 which is my all time PB, and a sub 1 4x4 single: 58.xx.

 

[stevecho816]

32.76 4x4 PB single on ttw!

Really easy solve though

Working on lookahead during Yau edge pairing.

39.96, 38.23, (42.42), (36.67), 42.29, 40.08, 40.01, 39.27, 41.69, 41.90, 40.02, 40.91 = 40.44 avg12 with 39.67 avg5

4:47.61 7x7 avg12

Solved 7x7 using commutators (except corners)

Learn corner comms!

Its stuff like R U R' D R U' R' D' and set-ups.

 

[SirWaffle]

I got a 56.88 4x4 average of 12 with yau. To switch or not to switch....

Well, I can quite easily solve 3 corners on a cube with a commutator, but I have trouble doing it in a solve.

Doing some timing of 4x4 today for the first time in months (I've really been focusing on 3x3 and 5x5), and I just got my PB single and first sub-1, 58.29!! And I had orientation parity T___T. I used COLL and got an EPLL skip so that was nice.

 

[Brendn]

got my 3x3 time down to 21.47 seconds and has stayed there for months, and ive gotten within .09 seconds within that time before but just seem to get it beat...
Also I broke my 7x7 record with a new time of 9:24.87 it was my first time under 10 minutes, and an improvement of over 36 seconds so i was estatic when I achieved this.
My next goal is to get sub. 20 on my 3x3.

For my 3x3 I use a Dayun Guhong v2 and my 7x7 is a v-cube.
