Mountain View BigBLD will be EPIC (we might actually get a full 5BLD podium???)

if I practice some more we gotta have triple state record podium

First comp with 5BLD, and success!
16:46.00 at Cuberussia in MSK 2017.
I was the only one who had a success at that comp.
But unluckily I didn't solve 4BLD and didn't get sub-1 3BLD .

HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH SUCH SETUUUPPSSS
also you changed to UF UFR buffers? why?
also R2, D L D'
i really think some of my corner cycles suck (im pretty happy with the 2011 edge ones)
but i dont want to start randomly changinging them, I want to understand what options i have for each case and pick one by my own

Probably my greatest cubing accomplishment so far :0

3BLD, 3BLD memo, and 3BLD execution PB at the same time xD

Got a 28.78 official BLD at Drishti Cube Open last weekend. First sub30 in comp!

hi

HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH SUCH SETUUUPPSSS

lol. I just try random moves like R U and D, and see if it sets up to something good. If the case is very annoying or i can't find anything i use cube explorer

also you changed to UF UFR buffers? why?

About a 2 months ago I was using UBL and DF, but the algs that I used were slow and had lots of rotations so I decided to start over with different buffers. The reason I chose UF and UFR is that some people think UF/UFR are the best buffers for parity. I'm not sure it it's actually true though (i'm not a parity expert so don't ask me)

also R2, D L D'

that alg is ok i think. you can also use this cool trick
D L D' l2 U L' U' l2

But R D' R' setup is probably the fastest (i can sub 1 the alg).

i really think some of my corner cycles suck (im pretty happy with the 2011 edge ones)
but i dont want to start randomly changinging them, I want to understand what options i have for each case and pick one by my own

yeah you should definitely improve your comms. but I don't think there are any good UBL lists out there though to check . Menegetti has a decent list, but honestly a lot of the algs on there are not speed optimal.

Also i don't think there are any lists for UB except for yours lol. Just from a quick glance, your algs are good, but a lot of are bad as well. You need to learn S moves

cant think of a reason why those are better than mine, look pretty symmetrical, so thats cool, after researching a bit (not too much) im happy with the way i solve parity, for now, im working on corner twists, for art's sake, i think i already got all but 4 twists

that alg is ok i think. you can also use this cool trick
D L D' l2 U L' U' l2

dammmmdaniel back at it again with the finger tricks
im so sorry...

You need to learn S moves

idk i rather do F R (E', L' U' L), how do you do S turns anyway do you use your thumb somehow or just a y/ y' rotation, or more like Fw' F
I really have to sit and reconsider my corner cycles thing is there are soooo many and there arent symmetrical for most cases (y axis symmetrical at least)
do you have a public cycle list? i could really check your stuff out

lol that meme is old already

idk i rather do F R (E', L' U' L), how do you do S turns anyway do you use your thumb somehow or just a y/ y' rotation, or more like Fw' F

i always use my index fingers to do S moves

btw i don't want to jam up this thread. You should post stuff in the help threads or pm me

Just got my first ever 5BLD success!! The time was 32:04, and it was my second attempt.

It's on camera too. I'll upload the video later tonight and post it here as well.

Roman is the 8th to get a Mo3 in 5bld - and he is the fastest!

He obliterated it! Shame about the 7 though, still an amazing achievement!

Well done. The 4BLD results from that comp are very impressive.
