    Yeah makes sense, do you have any opinion on shadow m vs aoshi m btw?

    Which Cube Should I Get? Up To Date Recommendations

    I'm considering the shadow m or aoshi m, or is it worth waiting for the fabled hays 6 whenever that may be as I know 6x6 hardware is still pretty poor. (I only have a modified vcube 6 from wayyyy back, but have restarted cubing after many years and have focused on 3-5 so far)

    Which Cube Should I Get? Up To Date Recommendations

    hey guys back from yet another hiatus, currently have a thunderclap v1, considering getting a Huanglong m as i historically liked faster cubes, but im currently pretty garbage, averaging around 25 seconds again and relearning the 20ish olls i've forgotten so I'm just wondering if it is worth the...

    [Help Thread] How to Get Faster using the Fridrich / CFOP Method

    thank you for the pll suggestion, learnt the first one today, plus the ones i know from 2lpll. slowing down to lookahead, my times went up yesterday, but today i did an average of 12 at 39.57 so I'm back on track and can only improve. Thankyou everyone for your suggestions

    [Help Thread] How to Get Faster using the Fridrich / CFOP Method

    Thanks for the advice about slow solves, after watching some tutorials on f2l this seems to be the main source of improvement. I have noticed i pause excessively from cross to f2l also, can i apply lookahead here too?

    [Help Thread] How to Get Faster using the Fridrich / CFOP Method

    I have been stuck at around and average of 42 seconds for about 2 weeks now, having dropped from 46 seconds a week before that. I use 2loll and 2lpll, with intuitive f2l and semi advanced cross ( regularly less than 5 seconds). My cross and f2l tends to be done in about 25 (more like 23-30) so...

    It appears I will be buying a tanglong then as I can't find the meiying in the uk and would prefer not to import it from the US and I can find a few more reviews on it. Thanks again for the recommendation, it appears to be pretty much the best cube on the market.

    OK thanks for that, it is actually cheaper too on UKcubestore which is a bonus. On a slightly looser tension how often does it pop or corner twist, or is this not a problem on the cube? Thanks for this quick response too.

    I am looking for a new 3x3 as my current cube (a zhanchi, had it a long time as I have only recently started cubing again) is suddenly feeling slower and is starting to pop a bit more. I have lubed it up using silicone spray but this seemed to have little affect. Anyway I was considering...

    The "Request an Alg" Thread

    I'm sure this has been asked on the 232 pages of this thread, but I'm not looking through them all!! but is there a quicker F(RUR'U')(RUR'U')(RUR'U')F' for the H on OLL and 2look OLL as this seems to take me quite a while despite being three triggers, or at 40 secs should i focus on F2L rather...

    Hey guys I have returned to cubing after a seriously long break (don't know how i lived 2 years without a cube lol) and want advice of what 4x4 to buy. My current one is truly awful and was bought many years ago, an eastsheen iirc. My times on 4x4 aren't blistering but my 3x3 is creeping down...
