Gave myself a quick refresher in 3BLD yesterday after a couple years off. First timed Ao5 had 4 successes! Yperm/M2

DNF(2:04.48)[1:11.76 (3E)]),2:43.80[1:06.83], 2:50.18[1:25.98],2:54.37[1:52.98], (2:14.23[1:05.41] = 2:49.45

Edit: Ended up with a 60% success rate through 25 attempts featuring a best solve of 1:45 and a 2:17.97 Ao5! Of my 10 failures, 4 were 2 twisted corners, 3 were 2 flipped edges, 2 were a 3-edge cycle, and one was 8 edges. Not bad at all! Just have to get cleaner memo and I'm looking really good!

Been practicing accuracy a bit more recently, and as a result I kinda have to wean myself off of corner memo review again :(

Had a 2:22 a few attempt before this with a ridiculous scramble too, didn't save the scramble though
 
3BLD Memo PB of 29.36! The solve was a DNF by 2 flipped edges, had a major pause of at least 20 seconds because I temporarily forgot some of the edge memo.

I don't know why it was so fast. It was as standard as anything else, 7 corner targets, 9 edge targets and a flipped edge.

PB, sub 30 soon hopefully. Most of the times after this avg5 were sup 35 though :/ didn't get an avg12 of course
 
3x3 Blindfolded PB single and first sub 23! :D Also got this right after a 23.50 (which is my third best solve) so makes a 22.81 mo2! :O

got a 1:17 after these 2 solves (bad scramble and nervousness :p) but the solve before these was 34 so makes a 26.67 mo3! (Second best mo3, PB is 25.40)

After two DNF's I've got my second 4BLD success. Time was 19:36, a five minute improvement.
 
19:34 4BLD PB by two seconds. I thought I'd messed up centers, so it was a relief to see a solved cube :)
 
32.07 3BLD single
pretty sure would've been sub30 if my hands weren't shaking so much
