So all I took from this is that currently, I have a faster 6x6 PB single than you do.

Cool

noice. I have a 1:49

 

[gsingh]

At a comp rn, forgot to post mains and goals tho. I'll post them later to keep up with the tradition
Currently doing 6x6, got a 2:13, so that's cool

 

[gsingh]

Forgot to mention, I got a 7.37 PR average yesterday.
I also got a 5x5 PB during warmup, 59.08, and I bought a Gan 562

Yeah just forgot to casually mention pr average in my best event. Normal stuff

 

[gsingh]

Good performance, not as good as last comp but tied PR2 with a 7.99 ao3r. I seem to consistently be averaging high 7 in comp now which is super nice, never thought I would have consistent comp results but here we are.

In the first round of 3x3, I had 3 7's but I also counted a 9, so that was a pretty failed average. The 9.65 was on a really easy scramble that I messed up on, and it should have been the best solve, resulting in a 7.47 PR average, but i'm not too mad about it.
I got a nice 7.37 PR average in R2 (video here), finally breaking the 7.5 barrier. Feels really nice to have an average closer to my global.
Finals was mid, easy scrambles but I was pretty tired so I'm not complaining about an 8.3 average.

5x5 was also mid, but I hadn't been practicing so it's alright. I still don't have a good official 5x5 single lol, I expected at least a 1:04 - 1:05 by now but it's still 1:08. My Gan 562 did ship today, and I should get some practice in for the next week and a half or so, so hopefully some good results at Atherton in two weeks (Norcal champs).

I did well in 6x6, probably because I practiced for the first time in over a year. Before this comp, my PR single was 2:21 (which was overall PB), and now I have a 2:22 average and a 2:13 single. It's amazing what just 28 practice solves over the span of 2 days can do.

I also did really well in OH for some reason, and I got PR average by exactly a second, even though it is bittersweet, since the counting 18 was a plus 2, and without that, it would have been a 15.82 average (almost PR by 2 seconds lol). Still happy with a 16 average though, the last time I seriously practiced OH was in 2022 when I averaged like 25 lol

Super fun comp though, next one is in two weeks (basically Norcal champs, gonna be super fun fr)

The worst mine has been was they brought it to town, prepped it for delivery, sent it to a different town, prepped it, then sent it back and delivered it. Took an extra 3 days.

My SCS order went from Vegas, to LA, to Vegas again, then back to LA, then to San Francisco, then back to Vegas, and then San Francisco again before finally arriving at my local post office.
