3x3 BLD (Pochmann) tutorial

[waffle=ijm]

Is it for the old Pochman method. It seems so easy the way you explain it I can't tell which one it is.....

Referred to as classic pochmann now. all those who use the obsolete term 'old pochmann' is entitled a punch to the face.

What on earth is a BLD? Haha this is the 1st forum I've been on where the people know what they're talking about. (Puzzleproz.com was my other)

Hahahaha. I wont anwser, because I'm pretty sure it is easy to work out/find out.

@ Sn3kyPandaMan
BLD is the shorthand for "blindfold cubing" coined by L33T cubers. If you google "BLD" along with something like "cubing" or "Rubiks" then you would get the answer quickly enough. Or spend awhile in these forums and you would find it.

Wow thanks for the tutorial. Its the best I've seen so far and now I can do I can actually do it! It made a lot of sense, I think parity was clear enough for me to follow.

I never thought it was so simple.
Thanks

i still find it complicated.

Question: Why can your video be 30mins long when youtube only allows 10mins?

I understand the edge permutation (with Old Pochmann) and I can do it fine when I write down everything I need to remember.

I'm still a little confused on corner permutation though. I'll have to watch the video a few more times and work on it a little bit more. I'll post my progress.

adam, it's really the exact same thing. with old pochmann you don't have to worry about orientation. you're basically memorizing stickers rather than pieces. it's the exact same idea for corners as with edges, just with a y perm and only R D and F set up moves.

what is confusing you?

The thing that was confusing me were the J-Perms. I don't see how to use the J-Perms to permute pieces when the permutations themselves move different pieces.

EDIT: I think I just realized reading through Stefan Pochmann's tutorial that only Y-Perm is used for corners? I guess badmephisto somehow confused me on this. Or, I should say I confused myself given that he's a great teacher.

And out of curiosity, how did you know my name? Did you remember me from Decatur?

ima decent cuber average of 20 seconds however, the one thing i can't do is bld. i understand the solve, however parity and memo i just don't get. Can anyobdy tell me where to find a good explanation on memo? i think i can figure out parity with r perms.

Welcome to speedsolving.com.

I would just like to point out one thing before I help you. In the future, instead of bumping a thread that is 2 years old like this one is, try asking the question the the One Answer Question Thread.

I personally used BLDmaster (BYU on the forums)'s tutorial, which can be found here: clicky

Follow the other videos in his playlist through, and you should be able to solve the cube blindfolded. That is how I learned, and I can get below 5 minutes with Old Pochmann.
