What is your greatest cubing acomplishment. FOr some it might be a World Record, Continental record or a National Record. For others it could be just solving it for the first time.

I think mine is 24.25 average of 12 on 3x3.
 
I think my greatest high was when I first broke 22s. At that time I was having problems looking ahead but within one week I just stopped thinking about what pair I was solving and started searching for other pieces and looking around the cube remembering what edges were in what slots etc.

It was such a great feeling being relieved of the burden of looking at what I was solving. Solves just became more fun.
 
My greatest accomplishment was solving the cube for the first time. It was SO hard. I figured out how to do the first two layers all by myself and then the last layer I just couldnt do so I googled stuff and figured it out.

I average around a 41-42sec solve and although thats not fast, I am proud of it. But still my biggest accomplishment was the first solve as thats what made me come this far.
 
First ever 3x3x3 solve by far. I finally did what I could not do way back in 1981. And to add to the occasion, I used the very same solution book I used back then too.
 
Back in the day when I used to juggle, I juggled 2 balls in one hand while solving a cube in the other. It was HARD.

It's either that or the 24-hour marathon I did in 2007. 3,165 cubes, baby :D

That's some stamina. You must have have good friends to scramble that long, unless you did it yourself.

lol, they took shifts.
 
I'm really happy that extended cross took off as a trick to add to your solving repertoire. However, that was still only a modification of an existing method (sort of a Fridrich/Petrus hybrid). My biggest cubing accomplishment is the collaboration effort of Daniel Beyer and I to create the BH method, and we're both very excited that it is starting to take off a bit!

For me it was my first competition - Silesia Open, 10 days ago. I thought I will be full of stress, but nope. My first solves in 3x3 were with small amount of stress and my main event OH was almost without stress. It was my best cubing acompishment.
 
I am proud of the of the 2x2 algs I have discovered/developed, especially R2 U' B2 U2' R2' U' R2

And obviously I am proud of all of the stuff I have done with clock, some nice tricks and some experimental methods, although I will not go into that now.
