[Member Intro] Hello There!

[DJ4Y]

Hey Guys,
I am Jay, a 14 year old cuber from the UK. I created an account just today.
My first encounter with cubing was around three years ago which is also when I learnt to solve a 3x3.
Around October of last year I started cubing again after I lost my cube and interest in the hobby. Soon later I started to speedsolve and have been hooked since.

The events I do are 2x2, 3x3, OH and Pyra as those are the only puzzles I own (don't judge pls) and my averages are:

2x2: 5-6 (Ortega/some CLL)
I will 2x2 sometimes if Im in the mood

3x3: Sub 17-18 (full CFOP with some COLL)
I do 3x3 all the time

OH: 45-ish (CFOP)
I don't practice often and only started around a month or two ago

Pyra: Sub 20 (LBL/Keyhole)
I pretty much never do

I'm glad to finally be a part of this community

Some of my other interests include: football,maths,WWE and gaming

I hope to be posting and replying soon!

Welcome here!

For me it was the same, only when I re-found my interest in cubing I began to be serious about it. Which games are you playing?

Just a bunch of random (mainly football related) free games on iOS. Nothing special. I don't game on a console or PC.
Any recommendations for ios games?

 

[sqAree]

Oh alright, I don't have any clue about iOS, sorry.

No problem man

Welcome to the forum!
Your 3x3 and OH times are way better than mine after I was cubing for as long as you.
Glad to have you here!

Why thank you!

I'm probably faster because up until April/May I was religiously practicing everyday. Since then I have slowed down but those first few months probably gave me a headstart.

North West London, there's a high likelyhood that I will go to the UK championships, fingers crossed

Cool, I could be going too (though it's less likely, since I live much further away). Hopefully I'll see you there!
