I feel that you shouldn't race for single because it's luck based, so I would recommend for you both to race to a sub 11 ao5, or a sub 13 ao100 to actually make you want to improve to beat the other one, but either way, good luck to both

Both of them are overdue for sub 10 and probably just want sub 10s rn. Also your PBs are so similar what

one of them has a pending critique (it’s not easy) and one of them doesn’t

Closest I got today was 10.80 and 10.84. Hopefully I can get it tomorrow, as I can block off like 2 hours in the morning just for cubing.

I’m incredibly happy my first sub 10 is full step, it really feels like the hard work has paid off.
There isn’t much obvious luck involved in this solve, but I think all the things like an easy cross, good look ahead and a good LL added up and led to my first sub 10 solve

A similar thing happened to me. Mine was full step, but xxcross and good LL led to sub 9. Now that we're tied we could race for sub 8.52 single again.

We should 100% do that. This may be very luck-based, but keeping our little rivalry going would be quite fun

9.21 single today, in comp!

Kivvi · May 24, 2025

Very much congrats to you, @Bingus cuber ! I’m really happy for you, that must be such a nice feeling. I have to admit that you are a little more consistent than me.

However…

I’m safe to say that today wasn’t just your lucky day, but mine too. With that being said, I just got a 7.75 single!

Not exactly the proudest I’ve been on a solve, there was a lot of luck in this. But hey, a 7.75 is a 7.75. That was a fun race with you, just tell me when you tie the 7.75 and we can do this again =)

Wait for some reason I thought you averaged much slower than me and then suddenly you come out and drop a single .03 off my PB... Congrats on the improvement and PB!
