This is one of the last Skill Building 60 vids for a week or so, as it seems these aren't as well liked as my meme series. I still want to teach, but it is clear that I need more than 60 seconds to fully cover each topic. Turns out, building the Optimal 60 takes a ton of time.

Also, good luck to everyone preparing for Indianapolis championships, Joinville, Bilbao and the Yokohama championships this weekend! Tons to cover, memes for each event are coming very soon.
