I wonder what the time limits are for BLD at WC. Anybody found that info?
Thanks. Where did you find that?@mark49152, 30m 4BLD, 50m 5BLD but nothing listed that I can see for 3BLD.
I need to push a little . . . to get 2 5BLD done in 5 minutes
A little!I need to push a little to get my 3 attempts at 4BLD, same thing to get 2 5BLD done in 5 minutes
Hey! Thank you. Sorry I missed this and a few others.
I'll look into this, I'm currently using peter-hung.com for right hand OH. Thoughts on that site?
Common sense tells me speed drinking is a bad idea when I am running/judging from 9am they next day...
Hey all! Haven't been on here in a while. Hope you all are doing well. I .....
Are you in Cornwall now? I am living in Trenton and probably going to be running my first comp in Trenton or Kingston around Oct-Dec depending on life and other things.
I like where you're going with that. Keep up the good work.
A little!
For OH it is a difficult move to build the dexterity for. I did start with a smaller cube, 50mm and worked my way up a 54mm to my current 55.5mm Valk. I did use a 56mm for a fair while. But really it's purely down to practice, stretching the fingers and building the dexterity required. Sort of like learning to play guitar for eg. When starting out you don't have the dexterity to stretch across the fret-board easily, but with some time it becomes a lot easier.I'm having trouble with first practice of OH, in particular moving index finger to front for reversal.
For example:
Left ~ R U R' U' ~ having trouble with U
Right ~ L' U' L U ~ having trouble with U'
Especially, the index finger won't reach to the front, with middle finger touching in back. Those two fingers don't even spread that far apart. I can do the moves okay with only ring finger in back, but am not sure that's a good form. I'm using a 56mm MF3RS. Besides to keep practicing, should I look for a smaller cube, or should the range of motion increase with more practice?
London will be the first UK comp I've missed in nearly 2 years.
Good luck all and I'll be glued to cubecomps
