I am no longer trying to get competitive times in 3x3 or lower, including pyra.
Cubing has gotten in the way of my schooling so I would rather do a big cube on the weekends or something.
I do not know if i want to completely stop trying to get competitive times, but for now i will be doing 4x4 and 5x5 untill i get 8x8+
We will see how this comes out, maybe ill just stick to it, or not, who knows?

What is SV? Is it a subset of Winter Variation?

I think summer variation, jperm mentioned it in a video. Not as useful as wv though.

 

[randomness...]

yea
not as practical but still interests me

instead of learning full OLL im gonna learn the weather variations (winter and summer)

Umm, I don't think that's a great idea but if it's fun for you do it.
