I'm new to cubing as you know, only been doing it for about 2 months. I'm really interested in it and I've solved the cube atleast 30 times a day.
I think I might be getting rubik's wrist (Or RPI/RPO which is repeatative strain injury/order) I used to have a steady hand but now it shakes quite alot ^^ also I play badminton and my wrists were aching so I was thinking maybe it was related to cubing. I draw a lot, and used to paint, I'm "gifted and talented" at Art, so that's also something that I'm interested in, I just hope my less steady hands won't change my drawing.
I have 4 cubes at the moment, all 3x3x3. A 'Competition Speed Cube' which was "Developed my the worlds fastest speed cubers to make the ultimate cube" it cost me £12, which is about $24. I also have a transparent one which I don't use, that was £10 ($20). I have my old one which isn't useable and a white DIY which I need to buy lube for.
I just ordered these from Cube4You: White Square 1 DIY. Eastsheen E4. Eastsheen E2. The postage and packaged was £6 ($12) so in total I spent about £30($60) They'll hopefully arrive some time next week.
I'd be interested in going to the London competition when ever it is on, I'd have to get down there somehow, I live in north england, it'd mainly depend on my parents since I'm only 15 ^^
My 3x3x3 solve times are quite crazy, they range from 25-60+ On average I usually get between 37 and 45, but on some good solves I can average low 30s. I'd need to improve to do any good at the competition, my F2L is quite slow, my time is usually 25-30 when I finish my F2L, but I try to aim to have finished my OLL by 30 seconds.
I know about 19 OLLs and all 21 PLLs, so I'm doing okay at memorising them.
Thought I'd make this post just to tell you a little about myself since I'm new.
Thanks, Theromy.
