I could just see the entire solve more clearly than ever. <\/p>\n<p>And today was the day. A quick cross. Three corners and three second-layer inserts were so fast. I had the yellow cross and corners permuted. Two lightning fast sune algs and a standard three-cycle to finish off and I knew it was coming. Just didn&#8217;t know if I could break 30.

And while the record could be broken again, I think the greatest success here is the change in average time. I&#8217;ll never get too much faster&#8230; Not without F2L.
