What is your most memorable PB?

[Myachii]

Hey all,

I was thinking about my PB's recently since I got an 8.35 3x3 solve not too long ago, and I thought about a PB that stood for a long long time of mine, which was a 33.xx solve. I was averaging around 45-50 at the time and the solve happened out of the blue. I flipped out, it was a major overreaction thinking back to it but it made me wonder what some of you guys' most memorable/reactive PB's have been?

Whether it was how you reacted, what you were watching or doing at the time or the significance of the number (for example if it was your birthday).

For example: When I got my 8.35 solve, I was watching a documentary on Hitler's rise to power in Germany (True Story btw xD)

Sub 10
I screamed and ran around

Before I even started cubing, I saw two of my friends race, and they both got 40 seconds. I coincidentally got a cube a week later, and set my mind to get 39 to beat my friends. After a month of cubing, my PB was 45 with beginners. Almost as soon as I learned F2L, I got a sub 40, and was really pumped up. It was great to achieve my first cubing goal ever and be faster than my friends.

First time I got sub-30, I screamed and ran around for like 5 minutes.

This by far.

This by far.

Oh my god sub-5 that's insane!

The reaction was even better. Wo0w

I was thinking maybe me first sub-20, but then I realized I don't actually remember it.. XD

My MBLD PB 7/8! Best feeling in the world

 

[TDM]

I don't remember ever getting it, but my 20.60 Ao5 was PB for so long. I kept getting very close, but never quite beating it.

Other than that, I have a feeling I'll never beat my current single PB.

 

[OrigamiCuber1]

Either my first sub 10 or my 56.44 official 4x4 single. It felt like such a bad solve and it is only .11 off of my PB

 

[natezach728]

Either my 5.71 3x3 single, 39.86 official 4x4 single, or 3.97 official skewb average.

 

[Petro Leum]

i had an 11.86 3x3 single for a really long time, that i did with roux when i was still using cfop... i beat it when i swapped to zz, but some time later i got 11.86 as a Onehanded single, which also stood for some months... it's like my personal 7.08

now my 3x3 single is 6.49 which is also really old already... hope i can beat it soon and it doesnt become my legendary pb haha

 

[Phinagin]

First sub 20 3x3 single 18.63

 

[XTowncuber]

My first 4. It was completely unexpected and I totally freaked out.

 

[PenguinsDontFly]

I freaked out over my first 6

 

[AlexMaass]

Somehow my first sub 15 in comp was my first sub 20 in comp lol.

 

[imvelox]

5.40 3x3 single first sub7 lel
and my 1:37 6x6 single that was PB by 10 seks

 

[joshsailscga]

For me I can't decide between my first sub-1 minute on 4x4 (back before I switched to Yau), or my first (currently only) sub-20 OH solve. The reactions were about the same

 

[Rocky0701]

My first BLD solve or my first sub 20 ao100.

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

My 48 official mega single or the official 3:58 7x7 solve, which was overall PB over 25 sec. with last 3 edges skip xD
Or maybe my first successful bld solve

 

[NewCuber000]

Definetely my official 48.52 second 4x4 single at my last comp. It was funny because everyone watching let out a big gasp because my PB single before the comp was like a 58 second solve and I was averaging over a minute XD.

First sub20, 19.77.
