What was your best time at 2 months cubing?

at 2 months I was at about an average of 65 seconds pb single of 55 (I was using a basic lbl still and 4 algorithoms for last layer..)
 
pb 36.xx, easy cross,easy f2l
i averaged 55-60 seconds...

I remember showing off to my friends after two months of cubing that I could solve it in an amazing time of...... 5 minutes. But at that time, I used an extremely stiff Rubik's brand cube. I would literally hurt my wrist trying to turn it. It's so stiff that I dare to say even the fastest cubers in the world would struggle to get a sub-30 with it.

But yeah, after 2 months about 5 minutes on a storebought Rubik's brand. Using my current ratio between my Guhong and storebought, it would be around 1:30 if I had a Guhong at that time I guess.
 
After reading this thread I am quite amazed at how all of the new cuber's are quite fast after only 2 months of cubing. Back when I started cubing in 2007, the cubes were not as good as what is available today. When I started, the best cubes were type A's and C's, and after 2 months of cubing, you'd still be around a minute. Now, I'm not saying that cubes make the whole factor of speed, but the method and resource improvement has improved greatly, from websites to new algs. I say that people should be grateful for there cubes and resources, as they are abundant to a large extent.

If your going to reply to this, note the fact that this is my opinion and that I am not complaining. Also remember to delete this line. Thank you.
 
I don't remember. I think I was 6 years old and I could solve just the white face :)

People also like to embellish the truth a little.
 
I've been cubing for almost five years now. The past four and a half years, I didn't know about speedcubing - I didn't even know it even existed :O.

If you want to know two months since I started cubing, my best time was 2:31min. I didn't bother trying to be fast.

If you want to know two months since I started speedcubing, my best time was 16.40s.
 
18.99 at 2 months. I have been cubing for 3 months and pb is only 18.74 now. No skips, i just concentrated on f2l very well. I wish i could always concentrate that well.
 
I beat you all, my pb after two months was DNF. Just two layers

Back in the day (1982) there was no internet, so it was a little harder to learn. I remember a couple of pages on a magazine like a year latter explaining a corners / centers method that solved the cube, I never memorized it, though.

Like four months ago I started cubing again with absolutely the worst cube in the world. Yesterday I got a Zhanchi and my times dropped 20-30 seconds, about a minute PB, a minute 15 average, I'll keep on practicing, clear sub 1 average is my goal.
