Cubing Corner

It's been a while.  I think I'm going to start getting back into it.  This first day's been pretty bad, but I'm starting to do well again.  Got a 15.64 avg of 5.  Not sure if that is my record or not.

That's incredibly good.  I'm looking forward to having an Ao5 under a minute.

Still trying, still practicing.  I'm sneaking up on sub 60 second solves.  I'm still spending way too much time on the cross and F2L.  But it is getting better and I'm recognizing cases better.

I finally got an average of 5 of sub 1 minute and a PB of 47.90.

I'm surprised that this thread seems to have died off.  This thread and you guys were the inspiration for me to get started in cubing.  Pineapple was especially inspiring.

Thank you and I'll keep you up to date on my progress.

Anybody solve other puzzles than 2x2 and 3x3?  I love Pyraminx and Square-1!

I have a 4x4, 5x5, pyraminx, and a Megaminx.  I prefer the 5x5 and Megaminx as my secondary puzzles.  For some reason, I'm not as fascinated by even numbered cubes.  The 5x5 is really fun.  The megaminx is confusing as anything.   I need to get a Square-1.

New 3x3 PB of 36.6

Considering it was just a few months ago I was trying to beat a 1 minute time this is pretty good.
