After adjusting my 3×3 Rubik’s Cube method I’m starting to get below 1 minute again. I’ve switched my last layer method to a 4 look LL that can be taken all the way to a 2 look Fridrich LL.

I used to do it like this: orient edges, permute corners, orient corners, permute edges. This was good but didn’t work for building up to a full Fridrich Last layer. I’m still a little bit clumsy on the corner orientation algorithms but I’m getting smoother.

Really I’m rusty at f2l too… having to think a little more than I should. When you have to watch the algorithm it makes it hard to look ahead. I could probably get back down to the 40s if I’d just work on f2l for a week but I decided to go ahead and learn new LL algs first so that I would be practicing them as I worked on f2l.

Anyway, here are today’s averages:

Average: 01:00.46
Best: 00:48.52
Avg. 5: 01:03.35
Avg. 10: 00:59.58
3 of 5: 01:00.90
10 of 12: 00:59.37
