Cubing goals for the Summer!

[michaelfivez]

- learn full OLL (started yesterday)
- improve my F2L look ahead (started yesterday as well )
- After this I would like to use the d-move in FL, something which I don't do at the moment
- Get my average at least sub 20 by the end of the summer (it's around 26 atm after 2,5 months of cubing so that should be possible)

3x3: Learn full cp and most of l2e + sub 25 Ao12 with L2LK

4x4: get a new one

 

[cs071020]

learn all oll and sub 15 of 3x3.if I have time,I hope I can learn BLD

 

[chrissyD]

2x2 sub 6 and maybe learn another method other than ortega, i hate it

3x3 sub 20 will probably be done in the next few weeks. i already know full oll so i dont have any more goals.

4x4 get a new one as ive had 4 and they've all broke

5x5 sub 3 i seriously suck at the 5x5

Hey guys, just thought that since the summer is almost completely over it would be an idea to bump this thread and hear back from you guys about how you all performed. Personally I havent managed to learn all the PLLs, but I have had a fair few sub 30 solves, and an average in and around 32 yesterday, so I'm happy I'm near that goal, despite an fairly unproductive summer in terms of cubing.

So yeah, feel free to tell us how you got on
Cheers,
Malus

I planned to learn full PLL, but didn't. I know like 11 now. (still G/R/V/E/F to go)
I did learn BLD, but didn't practice much after a few succesfull attempts.

sub10 7x7 i suck....
and i'm soo way better on 6x6

2x2 sub 6 and maybe learn another method other than ortega, i hate it

3x3 sub 20 will probably be done in the next few weeks. i already know full oll so i dont have any more goals.

4x4 get a new one as ive had 4 and they've all broke

5x5 sub 3 i seriously suck at the 5x5

2x2 just under sub 6 with ortega but only just

3x3 im averaging low 17s constantly so i've achieved that goal

4x4 got a new 4x4 and i average 1:30 which is about 15 seconds faster than the last time i had a 4x4 a year ago

5x5 not sure on this one i probably could get a sub 3 average if i focus on it but I don't do alot of timed 5x5 solves

also i go camping every summer for a week and i always seem to come back faster. So top tip, if you want to improve, go camping.

Dot and Cross OLLs, make a start on full PLL too (don't get a lot of free time...)

OLLs no problem, and I am currently hovering at 18/21 PLL.
Even seem to have managed to make a bit more time for cubing so all good

 

[Yuxuibbs]

i epic failed.... stuck at sub 25 when i wanted to be sub 15.... learned all PLL except G perms, 1/2 the R perms, and N perms.

Completed everything except sub 20 average: 22-23 atm

I didn't post in this before, but my goals were basically:

Get sub-40 (lolzers) Roux, or switch back to CFOP or ZZ and sub-30

I'm now sub-15 Roux and know full CMLL. :3 (and if I do CFOP or ZZ, I average just sub-25 - most PLLs, 2LOLL for CFOP)

To think, at the time just before Summer break/right as it started, I thought times of sub-30 were pretty much impossible for me. I average sub-30 with one hand now.
So, in terms of cubing, I think Summer was a success, minus my epic fail at comp.

 

[cubersmith]

Sub 20 avg 12 -3x3
Sub 6 avg 12 -2x2
Sub 1:30 avg 12 -4x4
Sub 1.60 avg 50 -magic
Sub 50 avg 12 -One handed
Finishing off PLL's
Starting OLL's
Learn Oka method for pyraminx
Buy a Mefferts 4x4

Red = incomplete
Green = complete.

Oh dear.

wtf, if that is true it's impressive

 

[Phlippieskezer]

150% true!
I improved rapidly over the Summer, especially right as I learned Roux.

Thanks!

I really need to practice Roux...

I admit, CFOP is kinda stupid. Still, I am so much faster with CFOP than I am with Roux.

I completed a few mini goals. I know full OLL and PLL, I avg low 20s ( 18s and 19s usually in every batch) quite easily now. The only goal I didn't accomplish was to consistently get 15s, though I did manage to get a PB of 13s.

Overall, a success for summer goals.
