Hello cubers!

i am not that new to speedsolving.com but want to make some more friends here.

But first lets talk about myself.

Name: Marc de Graaf
age: 16
Country: The Netherlands ( Zeeland)


How i get into cubing:

It was 2010, when my grandparents were 50 years married. She celebrated that.
they hired a house and everyone of the family was welcome.
Actually my nephew had a Rubiks cube with him. So i tryed it out. He told my trying to solve it, i said of course no problem. But after a few moves i realized that i was not able to solve that whole cube. So we stayed there for days. Everyday i tried it out. But it was time to go to home again. so before i went to my house i bought a brand rubiks cube at a shop out there.

When i went home i tried it out many times, but still not able to solve it.

So i dumped that cube in my desk.

next year i had some exams on my school. After that test you had to do something on your own. So i had my rubiks cube with me.
A friend of me said he nows somebody who could solve it. I didnt beleave till i saw it.
W000W i was jealous.
So when i went home i going on my computer to see how to solve this thing. My friend did the same. we both cubed that days. (old days good feeling :) )
after 5-6 days i was finnally able to solve it. much people got jealous.
Later i had bought a 4x4 ( rubiks brand, which is broken now)
than a 5x5, a Megaminx and 2 other 3x3 ( dayan zhanchi and stickerless zhanchi)
A 2x2 and a 9x9 ;)
i started to try out more and more methods. i was really into speedcubing.
I sometimes have the feeling im not getting faster. till i cheack my facebook. i look at my posted status and there i saw a video with a record of myself of 34 seconds:)
now i realize i'm able to solve the cube in around 22-26 seconds.
My sister was getting jealous as well. so i learned it her as well.

And thats were i am now.

My PB are now:
2x2: 7,5
3x3: 17,44
4x4: 1:49,55
5x5: 4:35,88
9x9: around 50 minutes
Megaminx: i never time it but i think around 7 minutes
3x3x5: i never time as well. so i really dont now.


So the main reason for making this tread was for getting active with some other people ;)

Are there people who could add me on skype?
i would like to talk to some people and maybe do some competitions on our own.
( if you are much faster or much slower than me, it is no problem to add me)

I remember my first solve too. It was awesome. Then the realization that I am solving it faster every day really hit me like a ton a bricks. I'm glad to see that wonder in a new member again. Welcome aboard. I don't have Skype, but I hope we can chat anyway.
