Cool, I’ve been to one(Puzzling Pakenham 2019) and am going to Melbourne Summer so see you there. I’ll probably go to more comps because I have cubing friends from school that can always give me a ride.

I only have one cubing friend at school and he is becoming less and less interested in cubing. I made a 2 at a comp but cannot contact them in any way

See you there!

I live in Ottawa and once I got really excited since there was a comp in montreal, and then I realised it only had feet, square-1, clock and blindfolded. I know none of those events.

I mean, you could do feet. I love square-1, though. I definitely recommend getting into it. I also recommend using this tutorial:

I don't have a square-1

I don't have a square-1

I recommend you get one. Squan was one of my favorite events after I got the YLM.

I am learning to solve it now. Currently im stuck on the last edges and PARITY. Any tips on learning parity?

That's cool that you're learning squan!! A tip I have for parity is that when you have it on the bottom, instead of equator flipping, try this: (0,2)/(0,1){PARITY}(0,2)/(0,-2)

Also, try to practice the partiy alg regularly and have good fingertricks.

Those are like literally my favorite events

It's not that I dislike those events, it's that I don't own clock or square-1, I can't do blindfolded, and I don't want to do feet.

Square 1 is very fun. I have realised it is better than a cube designed to be chucked at a wall. Thats for skewb Don't hate me Brady Cubes

UPDATE : I've bought a squan and a clock, and clock is now one of my favourite cubes. I also went to a competition, and I would 100% recommend it too anyone who can make the cutoff. You get to meet famous cubers, I met Patrick Ponce, and I also got to judge an NR!

I’ve judged an NAR before. That was something. It was the final solve of one of Nicolas Naing’s megaminx avg NARs earlier this year.

I have to admit, it was kind of frustrating because he was so busy yelling YES and taking pictures I couldn't get him to sign the paper lol.

Nicolas was so chill it literally wasn’t a problem. He just breaks records and says nothing.
