DEA_JA_VOO and what do you recommend me to do now? becouse i'm really angry and i don't even like speed-solving more, becouse i know it will be arround 30 again.

sometimes, i get some sub-25 solves, but then some 35 again and it's 30. then i have 5 30 - 31 solves and it's the same again and again and again.

i can't understand why i can't be faster than avg30, although i'm beeing faster and faster at 2x2x2 (arround avg 6.3 atm) all the time.

Any tips please?

ps: cube=type f and i feel that the cube doesn't stop me

Dude, just practice I was recently stuck at the sub-20 barrier for a few months, and I also got frustrated, but I just kept practicing. All you need to do is just keep practicing. Try doing metronome solves, and just enjoy it dude

ya, i have the same problem
i just got PBs today in avg 12, avg 5, and non lucky single solve
avg 12 - 20.34
avg 5 - 19.73
single solve - 15.61
by the way ... i do a 3LLL (2 look oll, 1 look pll)

EDIT: just got an 18.90 avg 5 ... PB

frustrated.. yes that's the right word for me at the moment. I'm trying to enjoy solving, but i'm frustrated. ok, thanks anyway and hope to get some "skill" after months...

im not completly frustrated atm, i mean yea id like to get sub-30 but right now im just trying to get sub-40 consistently.

I do alright just sometimes, like yesterday i kept getting lost and forgot what i was doing and then i ended up with a 56 second solve and i was mad...

the best thing to do to get faster is to enjoy it and just continue solving it. youll eventually adapt your fingertricks and to diffrent situations with the cube.

I would honestly consider using a type a DIY, i bought a type f under the impression that it would be good for cutting corners. How wrong was i. its really slow and groggy. type a's are really good! i highly recoment you get one, if you have a faster cube you will do so much better.

cheers

I'm in the same position, but in all my barriers, I've found that just giving it time will lower it.
