Wow, a skewb race
You guys are very good at skewb, I love it though I suck and average sub-20 lol

Bruh I competed in the weekly comp and I got counting 2.0x, 3 and another 3

yeah my weekly comp results are also pretty much just rage bait

For some reason I've been absolutely locked in during weekly comps recently (this isn't normal, just the last couple of comps)
I hope this continues because I usually suck under even the slightest bit of pressure

 

[Martyt7777]

Good luck both of you!!!

Quick report of what I've been doing the past few days:
I finally listened to @CubeLite 's advice and practiced lookahead, didn't memorize any specific layers though. I did a lot of solves with unlimited inspection on my Skewb-practice session, I've been able to hit sub 3 and low 3 a lot more regularly, and a fair amount of sub 2.5 averages too : )

Spoiler: Very Important!!!

My school is doing an experiment where students can't use their phones for the next three weeks, and I'm participating in that, so I won't be able to post anything here until (I think it's) the 26th. I will still be skewbing though : D
Feel free to ask me any questions about the experiment, you'll get the answer in 3 weeks : )

Bro you're lucky, phones in school are straight up illegal in my state

At my school we have to put them in these lock boxes until the end of the day. It's annoying and unnecessary, but not too bad.

I probably only managed to destroy them by so much because I had improved loads since the comp before this, but I'd say there were still a lot of pretty decent scrambles (btw my 41 4x4 solve had everything except 3x3 stage done at 26 seconds, including cross, and I had OLL parity so I sold the PB but still PB3 or so)

 

[CubeLite]

YESS, I finally found the loose magnet inside my skewb and took the corner apart after like 2 mins lol, but we apparently dont have super glue so i gotta wait until afternoon to fully fix it

Got the glue and was able to repair the skewb : D
I also tried to setup it with lubes, but I made it too fast so I think tomorrow I need to clean and lube it again

 

[CubeLite]

Ok so I cleaned the skewb and it was somewhat fast, so I didnt lube it, but its starting to be good after using it
And I cooked a bit with it, but also messed up big time with double DNF and ruining my flow
