F' R2 F' U2 F D2 F' D2 F' L2 F U' F D L' F' U' F' L' B F2 (csTimer WCA)

My cross was probably inefficient, but it set me up for the best solve I've ever seen. Two F2L pairs appeared out of thin air, followed by a skip of 3/4 of my 4LLL.

z2 y' // Inspection
B' D R' D L D' F' D2 // White cross on bottom
y U R U R' U R U' R' // F2L-1, & wtf
R' U2 R // F2L-2
L U2 L' // F2L-3
L' U2 L U' L' U L // F2L-4
U f R U R' U' f' // OLLE
// OLLC - nope
// PLLC - nope
// PLLE - nope
U' // AUF & smile

33.93, beat my previous lucky PB by more than five seconds (yes, I'm slow).

Loved that scramble. I had to try it myself. After some solves I got a sub-10 (9.62). I wish I could count that as PB, hehehe.

WHAT?!?! Pyraminx scramble U B U R' B R B U r'

 

[Randomno]

WHAT?!?! Pyraminx scramble U B U R' B R B U r'

My solution was U' B' R' B' R U' B' U' r.

 

[Michael Womack]

My solution was U' B' R' B' R U' B' U' r.

Nice, Looks like the solution is a reverse of the scramble.

Nice, Looks like the solution is a reverse of the scramble.

That's what I did.

What method solves this in one step?

 

[thehoodedyip]

Does this even count?
2x2: R F U' F

 

[TDM]

WHAT?!?! Pyraminx scramble U B U R' B R B U r'

[R] R U R' // 2/3 layer (3/3)
U R' L R L' U // L4E (6/9)
Idk pyra notation that well, but hopefully that works.

Does this even count?
2x2: R F U' F

Yep, 4 moves is fine for 2x2.

 

[thederpydank]

2.57+ U2 F2 U2 R U2 F2 U2 R' U'

lol

Best 2x2 scramble I've seen so far.

I got a 6.728, my PB being 7.45 before that.

[R] R U R' // 2/3 layer (3/3)

Pyra notation is really simple.

Skewb notation isn't though. :/

Yep, 4 moves is fine for 2x2.

Why? 4 move scrambles can easily by undone without knowing the scramble.
