I went to six comps so far, and it only gets better! First time, I was too shy to talk to anyone. Second time, I went and deliberately came up to people to talk even if it was awkward (I was 39 and a woman, so fit to be a mom of most competitors lol). But after that, I began attending our local cubing meetups, and then I went to more comps, and the last comp held in my home town was fantastic. I was friends with many local cubers, and I also knew many of the people from other towns. I wasn't as needy as my second time, and I had a ton of chats and interactions!
NOTE: depending on where you are you might have to register pretty much instantly as it opens. Here in the Netherlands most comps fill up very fast, and if you're late you end up at the bottom of the waiting list. Make sure to set an alarm!
YES ABSOLUTELY!!!
I live in HK and comps are rare. A comp last year which had a quota of 200 filled up in like a little bit more than an hour. Be sure not to hesitate when thinking what events to participate in!
Very good advice. Definitely, if there aren't a lot of comps in your country or area.
@@Failure_is_Cubing That's nothing haha, there are consistent comps near me in a place called stevenage with a 200 competitor limit, and it fills up within 15 minutes, every time
@@Failure_is_Cubing Dutch nationals filled up 200 competitors in 35 seconds 😅.
My first comp was in Poland and I didnt speak Polish so I sat there by myself not knowing what was happening and the kids next to me were speaking in polish to each other but there was a kid who actually helped me even though he didnt speak english and we as cubers just raced even though we didnt know the same language
That's soo sweet!
omg that’s sooo cool!
If I had a chance to compete internationally I would try to learn a new language before competing
@@andrewwatkins4852well if u were going to one competition in a country u r visiting for the holiday are u gonna be like: ‘wait I need to know this country’s language before I got’
@@FostCubes I know at least 3 languages so I’m pretty much set if I planned to do international competitions
I solved my first cube a few days after Christmas and am working on my times. I’m at 2 minutes now! I have found your videos so encouraging and inspiring and just immensely helpful. You are so warm and kind and not intimidating. I was so scared of Rubik’s cubes and put off by their complexity for so many years. But your channel has taken away that fear and turned it into fun. Thanks for all your amazing content, Tingman!
I solved my first cube on christmas
Thanks Tingman for becoming an inspriration for me in my youtube career. I'm going to reach 10k very soon and that's because of you. Thank you sir for becoming my idol.♥
Thank you, tingman. I love cubing, and now this video has helped me to go to a comp myself. You're the best!!!😊
Love your videos tingman❤
I witnessed three NR's.
Clock NR by Dilshawn (Canada), and Two Pyraminx NR's by Bawar (Afghanistan)!
Since I have my first comp in march this year, I am VERY nervous.😅 THIS belped me a lot! THANKS TINGMAN
This was the last thing I expected on a Sunday night.thanks tingman for the awesome content, I’m a really big fan of yours I go on my phone every second looking for new tingman videos and I bought every single one of your merch and the Olor mat from daily puzzles. I really wish there could be a meet and greet that yiu could do so I can see yiu in person. Thanks.😊
My first competition was back in early 2022 and I expected I would be just there to compete and that would be it, but when I showed up I knew it would be a memorable one for sure. Competitions have been not just fun but even helped me become who I am today. 27 competitions later, I would not have expected I would be organizing one of these events for WCA beginners month! Since then I have also convinced some of my friends to go to some comps and they have become regulars. Also thanks to you for inspiring me to go to my first competition! Happy new year!
Happy New Year to the Ting Man family!!!🎉 This year will definitely be a great year for comps! I'm actually going to the Cubikon on April 27th!! I'm participating in Pyraminx😊
And happy new year tingman! I hope you break more PB's!!🎉🎉
Amazing video! Congrats to 1mil subscribers!!❤
LOVE YOUR VIDS! Going to a comp today!
Happy New Year everyone. May 2024 be filled with comps, PRs/PBs and a lot of cubing fun. I'm looking forward to go to a few more comps this year. PS: I will also never forget the first time I saw Feliks solve in person, that was a revelation and very inspiring.
Love your content!
I actually went to a comp yesterday! Almost all my motivation comes from you 💪
Tingman, I just want to say, thanks for your wholesome videos, they make my day every time you make one 😊
I’ve been to a completion before and it’s really fun, I was a judge and a runner but sadly I didn’t make second round for 3x3. (It was the only event I did😂)
thanks for posting ting man i love ur content!!!!
i love how tingman always tries to get people to try out this amazing hobby, all of his videos are so wholesome and fun to watch, keep it up!
Great vid can't wait to see where cubing records go in 2024, and do you have to be a newcomer to go to those comps? nice vid! and as you said mabey i will meet you! can't wait tingman!
Tingman learning about the famous Kentucky moonbow. :) For the uninitiated, its a nighttime rainbow that comes out of the waterfall at Cumberland Falls state park.
No way! That’s super cool.
Thanks Tingman. Beacouse of you im on way to my first ever comp. You have been a inspiration. Thank you
Another reason why I go to comps is it gives me more motivation to practice, and I can also set personal goals for myself that once I’ve practiced and prepped for the comp, I can (hopefully) achieve them there. If not, at least I’d have had fun spending time with my friends.
Tingman your so right! I attended my first comp in dec 2022, and I did not know anyone, and then to the current day, I met my best friend of all time. I absolutely think you are so right about everything you said. BUT, make sure to register quickly, most of not all comps show how many times a como had been bookmarked, and if it’s higher than the competitor limit, SIGN IN QUICKLY!!!
I’m going to my first comp this year! Love the vid!
Hey Tingman!! I want to thank you alot because you are the one who got me into cubing. And now I am sub 30!!

I wanna go to a competition. But they are rarely hosting some in my city. Just waiting for the next one.
Love the work tingman I learned how to solve a rubix cube from your tutorial can't thank you enough❤🎉
I just enrolled in my first comp because of this clip. Thank you Tingman for the cue. It should be fun.
You just made me aware that there are competitions in the city I live in, Montreal!! I might try my first comp ever because of this clip. Thank you!!
I already sign up for one Tingman! Also Happy New Year
yes new video
tingman i have i question how often do you post videos
Excellent inspirational video, Tingman, and I hope to see you all at Moonbow Mega Kentucky 2024, woohoo! :)
Can’t wait to see you in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Yes come to comp' :D
nice video Tingman ;) all the reasons are good ones
Ayyyy long time no see I just I don’t know but you just make people happier and yeah I love your vids
I still have yet to go to a comp myself, but this year has already gone so much better than last year, and it’s only been a week! So I feel that this year is the perfect year to go to a comp!
Also gotta give a like for the Beat Saber shirt.
Can't wait to go to my first comp!😅😅😊
I HIGHLY recommend cubing competitions! They helped me find people I'm comfortable around, and it's 100% worth giving it a go, whatever your age is and regardless of how fast you are at cubing.
Happy one million subscribers 🎉🎉
Hi tingman I was looking at wca comps and saw Brisbane summer so I checked the competitors and saw you and your kids on there
Made it into a Tingman vid!
Bucket list item achieved ✅
Great video, as always!
hey ting love your vids
I’m so excited I am going to my 2nd comp in early February
Happy cubing
I have a comp literally tomorrow (technically today since it’s after midnight but you get what i mean) so I don’t need motivation but hopefully this helps out people who just need to try one
My first was in 2016, and then I did another in 2019, and I hope to do another this year
CONGRATS ON 1M!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am going to my very first comp on January 27! I’m sooo excited!!!
I have a few questions to ask about cubing competition
1. Do you bring your own timer or they provide it for you
2. What's the difference between cutoff time and time limit
they provide timers for you when you are actually competing, but as you spend probabky a good amount of time somewhere practicing, i would advise bringing a timer (mobile device with apps or something would work as an alternative) regardless. as for cutoff/time limit, if your solve is over the time limit it is counted as a dnf, but cutoff means you can have official singles, but if you don’t get below the cutoff time you cant complete the avg. for example i’ve never made time limit for square one, so every time i’ve competed in it it’s counted as a dnf. but for 4x4, i have made time limit, but i didn’t make cutoff in the 2 solves they give you (depending on the comp the amount of solves they give you will change but it’s generally 2), so i couldn’t complete the rest of the solves in the average. hopefully this makes sense!
Hey congrats on hitting 1 million
5:12 Hitting a strike on Wii Sports Bowling is WAY more satisfying than that!
Happy new year
great video!!!
Thank you, I’m going to my first comp on march 9th😊
Loved it
Hi Tingman!I have a question for you.What's your PB single?

I actually never went to a wca comp but watching tingman's videos make me think I am at one!😊😊
Happy new year 🎊🎊
Thanks for this video! It's going to be super helpful for my 9 year old son who is going to his first comp in February, and of course is very nervous!
I literally live in Ecuador, THERES JUST ONE AND IT IS SO FAR

Im having my second competition in Lithuania(Im latvian btw). This really inspired me more. I met greatest Latvians too and it was great.👍❤😊
I just did my first comp this weekend. I met Charlie, Chris Mills, Tymone.
I am already planing my next one

pls like this comment and reply pls pls pls
Hey Tingman! Do you have a recommendation on which GoPro cubers should get for competitions? I would appreciate it a lot if you responded or even made a video on it!
I don't think there's much of a difference between GoPros when it comes to comps, just set it up right and it'll work fine!
Can u make some tips and tricks for big cubes pls?
If you're thinking about going to a comp - stop thinking - do it! I promise you won't regret it.
Aaand you just reminded me that I meant to make "Attend my first cubing competition" one of my 2024 goals.
I’m going to one next week in Perth
When is you first cubing comp of 2024 tingman
Thanks!
I just had my 2nd cubing competition few weeks ago and my 1st ever was almost 5 years ago. I quit cubing for months so I just got back 2 weeks before the competition. The day of the competition, I struggled a lot especially with nervousness, my hands were shaking and couldn't focus well during inspection. I already know full oll and pll, but literally sucked during inspection (esp. cuz my hands are shaking). Hopefully in my future competitions I can do better. 😓
Hi, I just got the MFJS RS3 M 3x3 cube that you once recommended. Is this the 3x3 speed cube that you would still recommend? Thank you
2:35 YOOO i'm going to moobow!
I'm already planning to go to my first comp this year, someday, maybe someday, I might break a world record😂😂
Thanks for this amazing video! I went to my first competition and actually got 3rd place in 3x3!
I’m going to my 4th comp on the 20th but I don’t feel prepared
Cheggins was overpowered and still is
Most of my comps are like 3 hours away on the train and like 2 days on walk but i so want to go to one!!!
The Little Olor and her Sune Tshirt brings back memories man. ❤❤❤❤❤
That shirt doesn't even fit on Tingboy now!
Oh my goodness.
I always thought that to be in a Rubik’s cube competition, you need to be less then 1 min. Because a lot of speed cubers are within 1 min. or even faster than 30 seconds. But my average solve is anywhere from 1 min. - 1 min. 30ish, because I still solve beginners method and still haven’t learned at least all of the PLL yet.
tingman my first comp is in 6 days I am very exited i only new about competition because i am a big fan and i am only going because of you thank you tingman
I want to go to a 4th and 5th yet there isn’t enough comps around me for that possibility yet
i went to a comp and you are right is is fun
i have my third comp this sunday!
If only there were any comps in my country
