What's going on??
I've just smashed my 4x4 PBs...

I hope that I can keep this level until the next comp.

I used the mini AoSu.

Congrats man! Good luck at your next competition

I think most answered aolong when I asked what 3x3x3 you thought was the best. I just got it and did a sub20 out-of-the-box ao5 in the weekly. I have high hopes for this cube!

V2? Yeah, it is pretty good. I think the best at the moment.

New LL attack PB - all 78 O/PLL algs in 3:26.97. That's 2.65 per alg, only about 20% slower than when I drill them individually.

 

[sneaklyfox]

Whoa... I just smashed my PB single for 4x4 by like 6.5 seconds. I was incredulous when I stopped the timer and saw 45.74. I wasn't really paying attention to my solve because I was listening to a documentary on J.S. Bach at the same time. I think maybe I had a PLL skip with no parity.

Edit: Whaaaat... another crazy good solve 46.52. This was just no parity but normal OLL and PLL. Does this mean I'm improving?

Edit2: 49.94. Can't be coincidence. Three sub-ex-PB solves. Or maybe it's Bach's genius being transmitted to me through my headphones... haha.

Very nice! You inspired me to do some 4x4 tonight.

PB single by 7 seconds... no parity. Thanks for motivating me!

What?! I only have two sub 50 solves and they are both 48s. Good job!

Awesome! I'm glad I motivated you to get your 4x4 out then.

What?! I only have two sub 50 solves and they are both 48s. Good job!

Thanks! I really was pleasantly surprised by those sub-50 solves today. I guess practicing 4x4 a lot in the last while is really helping. Also this morning I practiced untimed and I think that definitely helps my times as well. So maybe I should do more untimed practice for sure. Hmm... this makes me think I will try mostly untimed practice for the next few days and see what happens at the end of it.

 

[MarcelP]

Nice.. and you are using the Weisu eh? Time for a faster 4X4 maybe?

EDIT: I have been doing quite a bit 4X4 this week because of the new Yuxin 4X4. And I had a single PB in the weekly competition. My first sub 1:30 (a whole different league..LOL)

Wow nice. I wonder, how to be sub 1 min, and I know - practice. I must try this.

 

[sneaklyfox]

Yes, I'm still using a Weisu. I'm thinking that when I'm properly sub-1, I'm going to consider getting a faster 4x4. Originally thinking Aosu, then the mini Aosu came, now I saw your review on the Yuxin recently and so I'm not sure which to get. I keep thinking that if I just wait a little longer an even better cube will come out.

 

[sk8erman41]

Hey all! Its been a little while since I've posted here so I figured I'd give a quick progress update. Its great to see everyone continue to improve! Marcel- are you back to CFOP full time/part time now? It seemed like you improved pretty quickly on Roux and I was happy to see that not only did your CFOP times not drop, they actually improved as well! good job! Sneakly- Nice improvement overall! Those 3x3 PB's must feel really good after being "stuck" for some time. Rocky- Wow have you improved at 4x4 since we began our race! Nice job, I am going to start putting more time back into 4x4 now (got Ao12 PB yesterday). Everyone else- keep it up!

I went to my first comp in January and accomplished pretty much all of my goals (WCA link on my info panel). I felt the nerves just briefly when I started (first 2x2 solve was 29.69 lol as I forgot how to execute a PBL) but after that I settled in and wasn't really all that nervous. I had the highest hopes for 3x3 and was a little nervous for that but met my goals with a sub-20 solve and a sub-25 avg. I participated in skewb and pryraminx just to do all events possible and to get a benchmark for improvement for future comps as I never practice them at home (until now). And my only DNF for the comp was a HUGE pop on 5x5. I had a pop on my last solve of 4x4 as well, but managed to put it back together and finish the solve. I had a great time and cannot wait to attend my next comp.

Overall I now consider myself sub-20 which feels great. I started my speed solving journey the day after the superbowl in 2013, so almost exactly 2 years to the day to achieve sub-20 lol. But its been super fun along the way and I now feel like I could have improved much quicker if I did more diligent practice and put more focus into a single event, but I am happy with my path and still love solving all puzzles. I haven't been able to sit down for a whole Ao100 lately, but here was todays Ao50 (PB also with my first Ao12 where every solve was sub-20)...

Happy cubing!

 

[MarcelP]

I keep thinking that if I just wait a little longer an even better cube will come out.

When I had the AoSu I never had the idea that it would have been the best 4X4.. With the Yuxin I instantly had pure love with this cube.. For only 12 dollars at Lightake I would say.. wait no longer You will be sub 45 soon.

Marcel- are you back to CFOP full time/part time now? I

I went to my first comp in January and accomplished pretty much all of my goals (WCA link on my info panel).

Hey Adam,

You did great on yuor first comp. Wow.. only 16 people went to second round.. That is insane.. I bet you would have gotten a sub 20 average in the second round

About Roux, yeah I am back to CFOP as main method. But I do not practice a lot, but when I do prefer to do slow Roux solves instead of CFOP. it is just so relaxing. I guess I will be going back to real practice any time soon.

Happy cubing!

Congratulations man! Sub 20 is a huge deal

@sk8terman41: Good job on your first comp!

Nice to see the progress reports on this thread, especially sneakly's 4x4 awesomeness

I also now consider myself sub-20, just about, I think. My last three ao100s were sub-20, eight of my last 12 bao50s were sub-20, with four sub-19.5, and the ao12 of those most recent bao50 results was 19.89. Does that make me sub-20...?

Yeah, I would say you've been sub 20 for a while now. Congrats! It's pretty cool that we all have kind of motivated each other past sub 20

Definatly! .. I had a 21.xx Ao100 this week.. Blehhh In my defence, I was using all kinds of cubes..

 

[mark49152]

Hurrah, confirmed sub-20 then . That will make me even more annoyed next time I get a 21.xx average

So... what's the next 3x3 target? 19 or 18 aren't as round as 20, and 15 is too far off. What to do?
