How fast were you guys after one year of speedsolving?

[NooberCuber]

I've been using Fridrich for 9 months and my pbs for 3x3 are
Single - 9.164
Ao5 - 11.881
Ao12 - 12.730
Ao100 - 13.289

I'm hoping to be around 12.5 by the end of the year since i started in January
I only practice 3x3 lol

It took me about eight months to learn OLL/PLL, and I remember after a year from when I first started that I had recently learned the last of OLL/PLL and made a big jump in times from ~45s average to low 30s. After a year of cubing I was on the cusp of going sub-30.

wow I have no idea about any of my progress/milestones from my first 4 years of cubing, and I've been cubing for far shorter than you. I don't know how you remember.

I've been cubing just over 9 months. My second child was born this year so I don't get much practice or chance to time my solves. I'm probably around the 40 mark. My single PB is 26s. I don't expect any further improvement by 12 months but I may have learned a couple of new puzzles.

I have been curbing for about 4 or 4 and a half months now and I am mostly doing sub-twenty.

I remember getting my first Sub-20 average of 5 a little over a year after I learned how to solve the cube. Keep in mind I learned to solve to beat a friend in a race so I was speedcubing from the start (I never beat him but I'm definitely the faster one now).

oops sorry, I ment sub thirty! (I wish I was doing sub twenty! )

I would say I started cubing when I got a stickerless zhanchi for my birthday, on may 3rd 2013. My WCA profile will give you a pretty good Idea of where I was, especially since Cornell spring was one week before my one year of cubing mark. My times at 1 year were approximately

~17 secs on 3x3
~6 secs on 2x2
-1:05 on 4x4
~2:30 on 5x5
~8:00 on 7x7
~22 OH
~sub 10 pyra
~2:10 Mega
~10 sec on skewb (I had only been practicing since it had been an official event however, which was 5 mo. at the time
~8:00 3BLD with a ~25% success rate

Other events I didn't really practice

 

[ketchuphater999]

I was pretty horrible, barely sub-40 (avg ~38)

 

[Sa967St]

Low 20s. I was consistently sub20 after about 15 months, if I recall correctly.

 

[Deathranger999]

I started doing it seriously-ish back in mid 8th grade. By the end, I was around sub-20. I averaged around 17-18 near the end of this summer, but now I'm pretty much sub-15.

 

[maps600]

I'm about mid 13s and I've been CFOPing for a year.

 

[Bryan Chia]

First started cubing 7 years ago, then i stopped for quite awhile. (PB that time was 36s, AVG 40-50s i think)
Then the cubing interest came back mid this year (PB this time is 15s, AVG 20-30s)

 

[tx789]

I improved really, really slowly. I didn't really improve until mid 2010.( I didn't find speedsolving until just before my first comp). Since the. I had a slow consistent improvement, sort of.

 

[guysensei1]

not even a year yet, but sub-15

 

[CriticalCubing]

I am close to 9 months of cubing and I am close to sub 15 Yet to learn full OLL
