So it's been a while, but I have been practicing quite a bit with beginner's lookahead, 4LLL, and some F2L. I thought my brain was messed up this morning, but then I remembered I cleaned my cube and used MAX Command on the pieces. I will finish my lubing job, and crank some more solves.

So I learned something today: the D2 flick is kinda hard to learn. You might mistaken it with Ring followed by middle, but the proper way to do it is Pinkie followed by ring, or ring followed by pinkie. I learned it from JPerm's fingertrick video.
Also, I am "learning" Pll. Got Edges, corners T, F, Ja and Jb. Need to finish up adjacent corner swap and move on to opposite corner swap.

Alright, many people say that the Yuxin Little Magic is horrible, and trash, and very slow… but today, I am creating this progression thread to break the world record… with a puzzle that may be a bit slow, but with what I believe has a big chance
(Maybe I am over-exaggerating, but whatever)

By the time you're that fast everybody will be using the CH XMD Riptide [magnetic core/internal pieces] primary internals UV coated size changing 4x4 V2m (WB edition) and the YLM will be a thing of the past.

Dang, that’s harsh.
Look, if Yuxin ever makes a 2nd edition of the cube by the time I break a world record, then be it.

What do you average right now? And are you going for WR Single or Avg?
