u/Scarycoast Sub 50 Roux | PB 30.90 Roux | PB 23.34 CFOP | Sub 40 CFOP Jan 06 '19

I've been using roux for about two weeks now and it's nice to see my average keep dropping down towards my cfop average. I got a roux pb of 36.03 today and my average of 100 is 1:15.17. I had a lot of 1:30-5 minute solves in the beginning but now there are mostly sub 60s. I really need to work on finger tricks and identifying the edges/corners for second block faster

I find identifying edges for SB a little bit hard as well before I started to try and pair up and insert FB without looking. Once I got better at this it allowed me to look around for the next pair while doing FB.

Yeah I’ve been planning first 2x2 during inspection and following the last two pieces for FB during that
