    New 4x4x4~NxNxN Method: NJPB Method

    Hi, I'm Jack Triton (former Bicube single ao5 UWR, current ao12 UWR holder). Today, I'm going to present my newest method called NJPB Method (NxNxN Jack('s) Pair & Block). This method is mixture of Yau and APB, but it's much faster than it sounds. Pros compared with Yau are: Less dynamic...

    Theoretical Yau4 variations

    Let me preface this by saying that I probably shouldn't be the one talking about this, I am not great at 4x4. But, I think that I have three potential ideas that may improve Yau for 4x4. Also, these ideas may previously have existed, and I apologize if I am repeating ideas that are already out...

    Which 4x4 should I get if I can get any one of these for free?

    It is also worth mentioning that I also do 4BLD other than 4x4

    Megaminx or 4x4

    I do better on megaminx than 4x4 but I’m slightly faster on 4x4 than megaminx. I like megaminx a bit more as I found it really fun, and I don’t get annoying parties like on 4x4. Both are not very easy to look ahead tho.

    Modded MeiLong M 4x4 with stronger inner layer magnets

    Hello everyone! I modded my MeiLong M 4x4 with the RS3M+ magnet kit on the inner layers. The stronger magnets prevent pops and enable me to turn the outer layers with more force without disturbing the inner layers. That was honestly the one problem I had with this cube, along with some slight...

    (Idk what this thread goes in, please feel free to move it if its in the wrong place) I recently got the YJ Mini 4x4 and there seems to be a squeaky/high pitched rattle noise when i turn the yellow side in particular. Anyone else have this? Is it a loose magnet?

    How to lube a 4x4

    Hi guys. I have a simple question to which i haven‘t found a specific answer to. So on a 4x4 there are these „hidden“ center layers when you pull it apart between two wings. I just got an mgc 4x4 and dnm. I tried to put a few drops of dnm between a wing and a corner (i pulled it apart so i could...

    Time To Start Again, 3x3 Sub 20, 2x2 Sub 10, and getting half decent at 4x4

    I know I have another progression thread, but it didn't work out for me. Didn't really post much and I was running low on motivation to cube. So basically I took a whole month break from cubing properly, and now I'm back! The break actually helped quite a bit, I got rid of the habit of doing...

    Need help with 4x4 rescramble

    So I was recently introduced to rescramble by J perm's video on the topic, and I tried it on the 4x4 cube, only to have center parities. I was wondering if there is anyway to get around this problem, because I can't figure out how to.
