Apologies for being a few days late. Been traveling so I haven't checked Lemmy in a while.

How's everyone's cubing journey?

I've also been a bit busy travelling, but I'm practicing some 3BLD when I can spare the time. I'm still terrible at it, but am enjoying the challenge. I also got a few new puzzles, but haven't made the time to scramble and solve them yet.

How's your cubing journey?

3BLD is great! I practiced it a little bit years ago and I've managed to get one official success (of like 7 minutes +) and I gave it up.

I'm mostly just solving 3x3 although not really practicing/learning anything new. My time has been around 14 seconds for a few years now and I don't see it improving any time soon. I do think my new cubes (WRM9 and RS3M V5) allow me to be consistently around 13-14 seconds, more so than the swings before with whatever cube I was using previously.
