I think it's my second non-DNF ao5 ever, and the first one with 100% success rate.

Well done.

I've just had 4 or 5 awful 3BLD solves all ending in failure (including a 13 minute catastrophe) followed by a 3:51. A PB by 56 seconds and only my second sub 5.

 

[h2f]

Finally pb in 3bld 1:20.74. The last one I had 3 months ago before switching to comms for corners.

 

[josh42732]

New PB!!
1:28.76. First solve of the session, and first timed solve for a while. I would sometimes do BLD in front of friends or something, but I can't seem to do BLD in public when I show people. Anyone else struggle with the same thing and how to overcome it?

I know what you mean. I often practice in my lunch break at work but only this week did I actually get a full solve. There are so many people chatting that's it's very distracting but I think it's good practice for competition.

You should probably start using fingertricks for U and U' instead of wrist turnes

Thanks guys

Yeah, I'll have to work on that (especially U' because I can't lefty flick it without locking up).
I swear I'm going to do some execution practice soon!

For slice moves though, I can't see myself being faster with "fingertricks" than wrist turns. But that's probably just another thing that takes practice.

 

[Christmas]

I started a youtube channel for my bld attempts, ive been actually trying to learn for a month now (I kind of knew how to before but I didn't properly practice) so yeah, you can check it out I will be uploading more.

First 5BLD at home in months, a nice Mo3 before getting bored:

5:19.79, 5:22.34, 4:54.55 = 5:12.23

All memos were around 2:20, my execution sucks now
