The Sub-15 consistency help thread

[jun349]

Hello! So recently, i have been practicing a lot because of a competition in one week, and i couldnt help noticing my times were a little inconistent, for example i had times in the 16's and 17's, and sometimes below 15. If you know how to get sub-15 consistently, then please reply to this thread!

like @SkewbIsTheBestEvent said, post an average of 5
one thing on my notebook for this is having consistent algs, because I got all the way up to 16-15 with intuitive f2l
just make sure that one case has no more than 2 algs

A typical avg for me: (13.55) 15.78 17.98 14.66 (18.09)

He's saying that you should post the scramble and the solutions you did for each solve, not just their times.

If your times are not very consistent, chances are, there are some bad habits that you have that happen sometimes, and when they do happen it kills your solves.

Some of the most common ones are lookahead mistakes. Definitely try to look out for those in your solves, and if you notice you make a mistake like that, write down the mistake somewhere. This’ll give you a good idea of what your bad habits are.

I have this EXACT PROBLEM with scarily similar times to yours. I can't seem to find the issues in my solves though, would anybody help if I linked a recorded ao5?

Yeah

I would suggest just doing a bunch of fast solves with about 20 slow solves in a row mixed in. That way being efficient will slowly be incorporated into your solves. Idk I honestly can't remember what I did
