Awesome! I haven't seen you here in a while, and then you just come back with lots of PB's

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Great times!! Congrats

Thank you Username and Kattenvriendin. haha. I also went to my first competition and am now learning full PLL (I'm convinced that with a few more PLL's I could get sub-20) Heres my wca:

I also made an ao12 video:

P.S: Username, I'm dylrules1123 on twistheweb. We met before but I havent been on for so long on the forums that I forgot who you were.

 

[Dylan Michael]

It was originally a demonstration for JRCuber (I offered him for me to mod his cube) but I just figured I was already recording so I would do an ao12. The algorithms at the end are just so JR can see some performance.

I know it's you Dylrules1123, I've known that all the time

What mods did you do?

 

[Dylan Michael]

Oh haha. I did a bunch of different mods (some of which aren't made so I'll just explain them):

48 point edge mod (of course)
Center Piece Mod
Sanded under tips of torpedos that rub against corners
Corner mod
Sanded base of edge that rubs against corner
And even though this isn't a mod: Lubed core

JRCuber may send me a zhanchi so I can mod it, then do a review on it. If people request it I will make a mini-buisness for it.

 

[mark49152]

More awesome improvements, nice!

 

[Dylan Michael]

Thank you everyone! It seems like I become lost from speedsolving.com for a while and improve a bunch over that time.

Also, new PB, 15.69 WOOOHHH!

Your times are REALLY similar to mine, and we've been cubing about the same time

Just out of curiosity, what are you working on at the moment, and what are your goals?

Personally, I'm working on pretty much everything (still learning OLLs, my existing algs are mostly inefficient and terrible, my lookahead is non-existent, my cross is weak... I could go on!). My goal is to be sub-20 in the short term, then maybe one day sub 18/15.

Yes, our times are very similar and you are just a bit better than me But, one of my goals is to be sub-20 by the end of summer. For some reason I think PLL is more important than OLL (and that its easier to learn) so I am trying to also learn that by the end of the summer. My goal, all in all, although far fetched, is to be sub-10 within the next few years.

I was thinking of starting a tiny modded cubing shop. You could send me your cube to modify and I could send it back, like alot of people do. I know most people don't like the idea of paying for their own cube, sending it to a person, then waiting for it to arrive (Which would probably take over 2 weeks for the entire process), so once I made enough money I could buy cubes pre-modded, then sell them.

The thing is, for people to know about this, there would have to be a review on it, one of which I can't make (although I do have a demonstration video of me doing an Ao12 with it, which I posted earlier in the thread.). So I was wondering if anyone could make a review on the modded cube, just so I could get started into buying pre-modded cubes. It would be free, obviously. Basically like a product testing.

Anybody up for it?

 

[Dylan Michael]

Bump? >.<

 

[Username]

Yay free cubes

I'll think about it. If I would make a review it would probably be a written review in the description of an ao12

 

[Michael Womack]

I want to test some.

Awesome! But you guys do need to send your cubes to me... and Michael, you would need to make a video on it ^_^

EDIT: Michael, I didn't see your youtube channel at the time of that post. Sorry about that. Sure you can make a video but you do need to send me a zhanchi

Username, thats fine, your always awesome anyway
