Race to sub x on a 4x4

Round 33--Race to sub 3:00.

Using Cyclone Brothers 4x4.
Much better this week.

Ao12: 2:53.76 (1/3... 2 more to go)
PB this week with 2:23.46 and another 2:25.xx Still fumble with the pairs but I'm trying to get the Yau method down. Although this round was all basic/reduction. Hopefully I don't get too confused going back and forth between the two methods. I think I'll be much faster once I get comfortable with Yau method.

02:49.00
02:45.83
02:46.72
03:18.24
03:04.29
02:25.30 --On this one, I messed up the PLL after noticing I was at 2:09. Had I not noticed the timer during the solve, I'd probably have gone under 2:20.xx. Oh well... still satisfied.
[03:31.53]
03:09.54
02:54.64
02:49.07
02:55.02
(02:23.46) **PB and had a parity at the end.

Round: 33
Race to Sub: 1:30
Cube: Yuxin
Method: Hoya (new to it)
Average: 1:26.80

1) (2:12.98) - popped, messed up edges and H-perm
2) 1:28.07
3) 1:33.44
4) 1:19.60
5) 1:41.26
6) (1:10.08) PB!
7) 1:33.72
8) 1:15.85

10) 1:24.57
11) 1:25.11 timer wouldn't stop so more like 23sec
12) 1:23.89

Surprised that I made my goal, because I suck at 4x4 and Hoya. Very nice average, a 3-way (ao 1/5/12) record in fact.

I've been practicing Yau Method... Definitely going to need more practice. Been getting times in the 5 min range. I hope it speeds up! Haha


UPDATE (June 19): More practice with Yau... still slower than my sub 3 goal, but I feel like it goes more smoothly. Again, just need to keep practicing and I'm sure the speed will pick up. I get confused when I switch back and forth so, I'll be sticking with Yau method for now.

Those two sup 1:40 killed me this week. First one was due to me destroying 1 cross edge during L4C and the second due to doing L4C in the wrong colour order for some reason.

Didn't do a whole lot of 4x4 practice this week, so I'm happy I pulled a sub-(1)30.
I don't care that I DNFed cause the solve was already awful. Would've been counted out anyway.
