Based on your wishlist a WeiLong sounds like the best choice. If not just got with an AoLong.

Best Rubik's Magic
Hello, this is only my second post ever on this forum, but I was wondering what company makes the best Rubik's magic, you know, the one with the rings that you have to get aligned from one position to the next. I've tried countless times to make my own, but they always break. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question, but since this place is on reviews, I thought that maybe you guys would have a good idea of what the best was.
thanks!

oh, ok thanks. I'll try ghost because I've seen a lot of them on ebay for 10 or under. THANKS
Link please?
I have a rough turning style that causes my aolong v2 to lock up and overshoot. I like the cube a lot but with those problems i wonder if i should continue on that cube until my turning style better works with the cube or to buy one with more control. If you think i should get a new cube, which one? i Average 22 seconds 2 look oll and pll.

MoYu/YJ Sulong. It is a bit slower that the aolong and very controllable, but still fast enough unless you are sub-15.
And, the best part, it is very cheap, so you will not be spending a lot.

I average around 30 seconds and the Sulong is my main. I abuse the snot out of it with my rough, inaccurate turning and I've never had a pop or a corner twist. The only other cube that works for me is the WeiLong but the weight slows me down a bit. The SuLong is light and snappy without being a floppy mess. It's a great, underrated cube, IMO.

I like the SuLong better.

I have both and the Chilong has been my main for months. It is also a great cube. It is supposed to be an improvement over the Sulong but it also depends on how you prefer you cube. Now I'm back to the Sulong as my main but I wouldn't be able to say which one is better. I think there are no absolutes but just preferences.

Personally the Chilong is my favorite.
Well i heard that the sulong locked up. I'd probably prefer to get the chilong then. But i also heard the new cong's design Yueying has some control so i want to wait and see how more people react to that cube. Thanks for all the help

Hey I am getting into cubing and currently have 2x2-4x4 and am looking to expand my collection. I am trying to decide between getting a skewb or a pyraminx, as I think they are both cool and fun. Do you guys have an opinion as to which I should get first? Thanks

Pyra, its a little more analagous to a 3x3, so it'll be easier and more fun to figure it out using what you know about 3x3.

If you can buy both puzzles at the same time then do it. But if not then I would highly recommend the Pyraminx cause it's easy and very fun to solve.
