Slow start, but PLL skipped; I saw that the PLL might be a skip (or a J perm), so the AUF was fairly quick.

My PLL fails =P
Cube: Haiyan-Memory
Mistakes: +2 penalty on first solve, and wrong PLL recognition on the last solve (I thought it was A perm but it's actually V perm)
Cube: F-II
3x3 First Round
Finally sub 11! Consistent times. Still potential to be faster?
The cubes used:
1. Ghosthand center + type F I cubies
2. F-II
3. Haiyan-Cube Memory
Cube: Haiyan-Memory.
Notice how the times are getting worse and worse...
That last solve was painful to remember, and watch (double facepalm at the end)
Better luck next time!

TOW 2010 was awesome! The solves were getting faster! First solve was with Joy cube; the rest were with Type F-II. PLL skipped on the 14.78.

This video was taken on the day that I got the cube! It POPs from time to time though, which is a problem if I'm going to use it in a competition.
Enjoy!
Note: This is my 2nd sub 10 video; my first one was 9.98 seconds with a POP in it.
The goal: the shortest video from starting scrambling to finish.

Former North American Record.
Done on the first round of 3x3 speedsolve in TOS09. It was yet another great competition, incredibly smoothly organized!
Cube: C4Y center + Type C cubies.
I did the wrong U perm on that DNF -.-" (the time was 9.25 seconds). I haven't been practicing a lot lately; lots of other things going on. Next competition, Toronto Open Summer TOS, is in just 2 weeks!
2x2: EastSheen
3x3: Type D center + Rubik's DIY cubies
4x4: DX Mefferts Clone
5x5: V-Cube 5
The centers were so easy! But I had OLL parity so I guess it cancels out.
Cube: DX Mefferts Clone (essentially the same as real Mefferts?)
I'm still relatively slow though, I average ~1:45 (PB 1:30).
11.16 [=9.16+2] (13.13) 11.09 (10.63) 12.19
So many opportunities, but so many mistakes. Despite those mistakes, it is still my fastest official average yet.
It's been a while since I recorded an average video...the times are all over the places! I seriously need a better cube.
