Racing to sub-20

Round 514
Ave: 20.04

23.23, 18.83, 21.36, 19.37, 19.00, 18.49, 20.22, 20.70, 17.48, 14.30, 27.10

It wouldn't be a normal average if I didn't choke and ruin it! Lol The ol worst followed by best trick.

Nice average with my old YJ Sulong. Only two solves on other cross colors but good solves both of them. I was going to do just white and yellow again but in the 1st scramble I saw that red cross with 3 pieces already in and I couldn't resist. Almost the same with the 3rd on blue :)

This cube is still so great, controllable and smooth. The only problem being the lack of reverse and a tendency to corner-twist.

I'm with you @mafergut, although After the first two solves I lost my focus. I spent the last two weeks just kind of playing with untimed random color solves. That has both helped and hurt my times in the short term... as I get more confidence and recognize f2l cases faster and turn more quickly the frequency of mis-inserted pairs has gone up as has the number of times I completely blow up an OLL or PLL alg. However, despite the relatively poor average this week I'm seeing definite improvement.

Hey guys, first time posting results on this thread.

I'm a CFOP solver, green only. I know all PLLs except for the N perms (can someone suggest some good algs for them pls). I know most of the 57 OLLs but not very well, I learnt a lot of them yesterday so my recognition and execution is poor (prone to messing up)

This average is okay for me, need to practise the new algs and then it should drop slightly (maybe sub 18)

Anyway, here are my times:

ao12: 18.33
Best time: 13.75
Best ao5: 16.65
Best mo3: 15.61

Times:

1. 17.20 - terrible v perm execution
2. 17.96
3. 17.99 - mistake in inspection lookahead
4. (28.22) - generally terrible, mistakes during new OLL learnt
5. 15.92
6. 18.97 - 2 look PLL (I don't know the N perms)
7. 16.87
8. 15.58 - 2 look OLL on an alg I knew :/
9. 17.51 - sloppy solve
10. (13.75) - nice solve:)
11. 19.11 - slow recognition of OLL I just learnt
12. 26.22 - messed up the OLL I just learnt

Another very nice average with my YJ Sulong. Why am I even buying new cubes at all? Well, I'm trying to find something that feels this nice but also does not corner twist and has a bit better reverse corner cutting. Also, for the time being, I have given up on full colour neutral.
