I need tips for my 3x3. I know full pll and most of oll. I avg around 16-18. I use MoYu WRM 2021 MagLev. I practise daily and I really would want to be sub 10 in the future.

Learn more advanced cross techniuqes, have some better finger tricks, too long recognition,don't rotate much, watch some Lazer Monkey breakdowns and try to solve the srambles by your own and see if you are more effiecient or not and learn more f2l tricks from those breakdowns.

  1. your cross should be under 3 seconds if youre sub 18 - you should watch jperm's videos about making efficient crosses and plan it all in inspection (at least 3 pieces if you cant)
  2. you regripped a few times for stuff like L F' L' and R' U R which can be avoided by using better fingertricks
  3. never look at the back of the cube to recognize pll, if you don't know what case it is then do a U move
  4. practice D2 flicks (I would recommend pinky then ring), they will make A perms one of the fastest plls
#

also unrelated to the solve but that was a +2 timer start, you need to start it with your fingers

try cubing in a remote zone such as a table, because you cannot solve good on a bed

You use the timer in the wrong way and if you do that at a competition it will be DNF!!
