Just keep solving, improvement can get easy, i went from 20 to 15 in a few days. I think around half a month.

Do you have discord by any chanxe, i can give an invite to the clock solvers discord.

How to improve with clock:

Spoiler: Sub 30ish

Just keep practicing and learn solving from diffrent rotations. For this i reccomend around 10-25 solves a day.

Spoiler: Sub 15

Just solve and learn solving from diffrent rotation and learn a few skips. Also setup your clock with this vid

do around 50 solves a day

Spoiler: Sub 10

This is the point where clock becomes serious, just keep practicing, learn skips and have a noce setup.

watch this video. Also use a pin order you will use for all your solves. I recommend this one:

DR pin: match c to u
UR pin: match u and c to l to make a L shaped block
UL pin: match the L to r
U pins: match everything to d

Corners: dl ur ul dr, solve horizontally for lookahead. Also use the dr or dl wheel for max. 2 times.

Spoiler: Sub 8 and faster

Just practice, find example solves on clockdb.net, you can also learn 7s at around sub 7. If you do this at a lower global, improvement gets hard. Good luck!

IMO you should learn seven simul sooner than later, I learnt it averaging ~12 and now average ~7-9

Starting off nice in utrecht fmc
Dnf 64

 

[Davian]

FMC utrecht: Saved my pr streak with one counting solve.

This was the most boring comp, but it was fun tho.
I could actually take the bus without going to train or smth.

I first came to @SilkCubingYT in utrecht Central (the train and bus and tram station) and we walked to the venue together. then after attempt one i DNFed and we bought some ice cream as it was hot outside, we took a whole other path when we just had to walk one minute to some random ice cream shop.
after attempt 2 me and mick got a sub 7 clock team solve. then i got a 64 at second attempt, which was PR.

Then me, @Enirolf and some other cubers went to the mac and then i got home. Like i said, pretty boring comp

next comp capelle cubing 2024 with clock!

 

[SilkCubingYT]

It was pretty fun! Sad that you dnf'ed tho, very excited for Capelle

Personally i don't think that's a great idea, sub-8 on flip is what i recommend before learning 7 simul. Just because good turning is required and flip helps you develop it faster, if you learn it sooner you might get stuck at a certain point.

I was averaging 10 on flip but then in late march of this year I learned 7 simul flip (bpaul) and yesterday I got a 5.77 average in comp

Sh*t average, could have done WAY better but i did flip on the last 2

Advice for tommy 7simulers: For the first letter, d to c make sure to find the lowest number. this is the reason I did flip on the last 2 and counted 2 6s
