Feedback on my solves

I decided to record an average of five of my solves. I would like some feedback on my weak points and what I could do to improve them, as well as how I could improve my video quality. This is my first cubing video, so there are many aspects of the video that could've been improved. I didn't realize until afterwards that the cube was close to the top of the screen and was not easily seen, so I will try to fix that in the future. I also got kind of nervous with the camera on. Sorry about the background noise, I'm not sure how it got there because I had no background noise where I was cubing. I may upload an average of 12 later this week. Thanks for any feedback that can be provided.

They were pretty good except that you rotated like WAY too much.
You should have 2-3 MAX, your first solve had a lot more than that.
Last layer and cross were okay, nothing that stood out.

Fix that yellow centerpiece! I got like hardcore OCD jitters from that, lol

lol, I lost the yellow center cap under the couch, so I need to look for it again. XD
WOW, I had no idea I had so many rotations in that first solve... It makes me cringe watching it now.

The first time I made a video of one of my solves I was shocked at the number of rotations and the amount of pauses that were in it. I never realised how much time I wasted every solve until I actually watched myself.

Yeah, that's why I decided to make this video. I will probably make more and analyze them to see where I can improve most.

That's definitely a good idea. I'm going to be doing it myself too.

nice solves, especially solve 3!

Everything looked pretty good. Your cross was pretty fast; have you ever tried preserving some of those free blocks that the scramble gives you? I saw a lot of easy 2x2x2's or XCrosses that you could have easily taken advantage of.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I really appreciate it.
