"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

Round One Hundred Three

I'm missing this already having graduated so I'm entering using opposite colour cross (yellow as opposed to white) -- I hope that's OK.

Average: 33.59

(52.08), 37.03, 34.38, 33.25+, 32.83, 31.72, 34.83, 31.81, 30.06, 31.61, 38.38, (29.58) = 33.59

This is the first time I've timed myself solving with a yellow cross so you can see the early problems!

EDIT: although I officially graduated, I failed to get a sub-30 in competition this past weekend so I'm not ready for the big world of race to sub 20!
 
Round 103
3X3 on 4X4

Average: 34.30

29.20, 28.73, 32.66, 35.99, 38.30, 33.79, 36.71, (DNF), (28.39), 32.90, 35.32, 39.37
 
Round 103
Average=50.34

49.97, (42.35), 56.42, 42.88, 51.36, 51.78, (1:02.57), 44.80, 53.71, 47.49, 59.41, 45.55

This was my best average of twelve ever by a few seconds! :)
Also got my best average of five ever - 48.07 with the first five solves
My average dropped 27 seconds from last week! I think this is because I have been practicing obsessively.

what were your results in competition? I'm about to attend my first competition in may! Can't wait! I'm hoping for a sub30 result.
 
Round 102 Average: 47.17

Mean: 47.81
Standard deviation: 6.22
Best Time: 38.63
Worst Time: 63.42

Times: 49.64 44.92 49.32 51.98 (63.42) 40.54 47.56 49.90 42.67 (38.63) 50.76 44.36

I believe I'm living proof that for some people sub40 is impossible....


What method are you using and how long have you been there?
I used to average 45-50 seconds until I started using the official rules including the inspection so it took me a while to get used to tryin to solve the cross in my head.. Dont get me wrong I still struggle with it all the time.
 
Round 103

grr!! Thought I was turning it around near the middle. I'm angry that I didn't sub25 the third scramble!!
But on the bright side there were no over 40's.

Just to clarify, this wasn't my first competition: I'm just slow and additionally very slow to improve!

seeing your WCA profile makes me wish I would have started competing years ago! I learned CFOP about 4 years ago but never considered getting faster and attending competitions cause I figured only the best competed. I only realized about 4 months ago that all kinds of ppl go. I'm pumped to get some stats on my record! I see you've attempted BLD.. what method did you learn? Pochman? Have you had any successful solves?
 
I'm entering for opposite cross speed now since I graduated. Based on the results I think I might be sticking to yellow lol. The sub 20 was full step too, H perm to finish. My M slices are becoming beast, think I almost sub 1 seconded it. :D AND I'm hungover. Weird..

new PBs out the wazoo lol (I don't do 1H much, time to update sig lol). Figured I would try 1h, not really sure what else to do (I don't really have any aspirations to become colour neutral so didn't want to do that).

I don't know what happened in that first solve, but seven sub-30 solves in a row fixed that :D finally breaking the sub-30 barrier, so happy!
