Goals over the summer?

2x2: sub-10 :(
3x3: sub-20
4x4: Get a decent one
5x5: sub-3
Pyraminx: Get a new one
BLD: Start
OH: sub-60

Accomplished my 3x3 goal. I'm not 100% sub-20 but I've gotten 8 on file and a 20.24 average of 50. I ordered an ES 4x4. Everytime I'm about to get a 2:5x time on 5x5 I drop the cube and a piece always pops out. I've given up on Pyraminx and plus it doesn't fit in my puzzle box. I learned M2 edges and old Pochmann for corners for BLD. Now, I need to learn the actual BLD part of BLD. I can barely get sub-60 for OH.
 
Hm, busy this summer but here are my goals.

- Sub 20 Average on 3x3, i'm sitting around 21-22 at the moment.
- Learn how to blindfold and successfully complete one
- Sub 10 average with 2x2 (around 13 seconds but i don't practice) Done.
- Sub 2:30 on 4x4 (at around 3 minutes but i don't practice haha Done
- Start OHing
Got two done. Kind of gave up on bld and I've gotten some sub 20s but not consistent yet.
 
Update on my goals:
-Sub-20 Roux avg, and stay around 15.xx w/ Fridrich
I did an 15.xx avg of 12 with Fridrich today, so I'm still fine with that. I'm now around 26.xx with Roux consistently. I had another sub-20 solve today too.

-Learn a lot of COLL and CMLL
I know 3 of the cases of CMLL, so getting there. I am more or less trying to find the quickest algs for each case, whether it is CMLL/COLL. So I am going through all the COLL pages I can find, and if I can't find an alg I like, I go to the Roux site and see what he has. I may try generating a couple of the ones I can't find good algs for.

-Learn more OLLs w/ OH
None... yet

-Get sub 1:05 4x4 avg
I'm still around 1:10-1:15. These last 10 seconds will be hard to get. I was avg'ing 1:18 over a year ago.

-Get sub 2:40 avg (this was 2 weeks ago, I am pretty much already here, so I'll go sub-2:30)
Getting there. I'm around 2:35 avg, but have only had like 5 solves sub-2:30.

-Get BLD avg under 2:30
Haven't even tried yet. Last I practiced I was around 2:50 avg.
 
- 3x3: 30 secs
- 4x4: 2.30 mins
- 5x5: 6 mins
- 6x6x6 - unknown for now
- 7x7x7 - unknown for now
- Megaminx: 10 mins <----- the looks of this puzzle shocks people.

I'm sure a good amount of us cubers are in school, and we're going to be out for the summer. Some will be out in a few weeks and some already are. What are your cubing goals that you wish to achieve before you go back to school?

I would like:

  • 25ish average on the 3x3
  • 2ish average on the 4x4
  • Learn 2x2 Ortega
  • Go from 2 Look OLL to 1 Look
  • Get a 5x5 and learn to solve it
  • Learn 3x3 BLD

Not bad. I haven't cubed in a few weeks but back then I averaged 25-28 on 3x3. I average like 2:30-3 on 4x4. I learned Ortega. I didn't learn full OLL. I got a 5x5 and learned to solve it. Didn't learn BLD.
 
Try to get this thread up ;)

Next summer...hmm...
Im wondering for sub 12sec avarage for every day...
