[Member Intro] Returning to speedcubing

[BriMoon]

Hello! I am a returning speedcuber, after a hiatus of about 3-4 yrs, where I just cubed for fun without really trying to improve further, my passion for speedcubing was reignited. Now I am trying to get back into the groove and achieve more goals for the future!

As of now I am planning to:

- get a sub10 Ao5 (my PB atm is 10.23 froma few days ago, before that it was 3 yrs ago at 10.66)
- learn full OLL (due to my laziness, i never really learned the dot cases, so i have to remedy that)
- break the sub-10 barrier (rn i am stuck at high11-low12 Ao100, so I still have a long way to go)
- break some of my other PBs

After saying all this, I am glad to be back. See you soon!

Good luck breaking the sub-10 barrier yo. I am sure you can achieve it!

I think it was Lucas Etter who said full OLL is the easiest route to sub-10

Quick update!
I did learn all OLL cases in the past week, now I just have to furiously practice them more, as Dot cases are pretty rare, so I tend to forget them as I go on.

Got my first sub-11 ao12, and broke it again in the same session 10 minutes later (11.03, 10.93)
Got my first sub-12 ao100 (11.99) and lowered it 50 or so solves later to 11.88.
Got my first sub-8 in years (7.53) with a 50 moves solves. TPS kinda bad, but overall happy with my 2nd best solves ever.
