Weekly progress check-in (Sunday 8 November 2026)

What did you work on this week? One line is enough: event, current average, what you practised, one goal for next week.

Beginners and people coming back after a break are the point of this thread, not an exception to it. If you keep a progression thread, link it so people can follow along, and if someone's goal matches yours, say so: it is easier to practise F2L look-ahead when two people are doing it.

I've started putting intuitive L4E into my Pyraminx solves, times varying anywhere from 5-20 seconds.
I also got some new cubes - dayan pyraminx v3 and skewb v2, and the moyu aosu v7. I'll review them sometime soon.

I started practicing FTO again and I finally got to sub 40!

Same as last week. I also got 3x3 PB3 Single.

Checking in: 3x3 this week. Main focus has been F2L lookahead — a short block of slow untimed solves most days where the only rule is no pausing between pairs, plus trying to get the full cross planned in inspection more consistently. Goal for next week: keep that daily lookahead block going and get an Ao12 where most crosses were fully planned.

I've been working on look ahead, and it's really improved. I've also learned most of the ollcp dot cases
