    Default Square-1 Tips?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get sub-30, but i canīt. I got stuck on 32-35. I've watched all David Woner's videos, and I use the algs.
    But I can't, for example, get sub-8 cubeshape or sub-8 ELL.
    Tips will be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Dani


    P.s: Sorry for my bad english.

    8 second cubeshape is terrable.

    What an amazing post.

    Just keep practicing. And mod your Sq-1 to get it to cut corners better.

    That's why I'm asking for tips.

    Then practice cubeshape exclusively, that's what vcuber did.
    Just do the first few moves of the scramble, and only do cubeshape.
    I have official sub-20 avg :)BLD checklist: Corners: nope. Edges, --owait... i lost >.<

    Practicing CP recognition is helpful too.
