[ask,help] how to be fast scrambler..??

[senopath]

Hi all..
I saw a lot of cubing video in youtube, some of them show me scrambling cube before solving, and its so fast and awesome.. 0_0
I try to scramble my cube (type D, white) like that and just lockup that i've got..
So, anyone can help and guide me to be fast scrambler..

P.S
Even i don't know, it's has some sequence or realy random move..
Help me please..

Look ahead to the next move. I'm serious.

practice.
you'll get faster at scrambling once you've done lots and lots of scrambles

 

[Rook]

I normally just memorize the first 2-3 moves, and while I'm executing them I look at the next 2-3 moves, then when I'm done executing those first 2-3 moves I'll execute the next 2-3 moves, and so on.

I was actually just thinking about making a new thread where I was going to ask how fast you finish your scrambles, lol.

 

[Daniel Wu]

Just practise honestly. It comes with time.

1. Memorize all of the moves
2. Lick your TV remote
3. Close your eyes
4. Touch a small mammal with your feet (preferably a raccoon)
5. Spell "CHEESE" in the sand at the beach
6. Scramble your cube
7. Repeat number 5 untill you are a fast scrambler

Read and execute 10,000+ scrambles and you shall scramble as fast as I. Good luck.

Get a different cube than a type D.

Something that has is known for not locking up.

1. Memorize all of the moves
2. Lick your TV remote, close your eyes
3. Touch a small mammal with your feet (preferably a raccoon)
4. Spell "CHEESE" in the sand at the beach
5. Scramble your cube
6. Repeat number 5 untill you are a fast scrambler

It didnt work... .

Did you not realize what number 7 says?

Turn very accurately on scrambles, and don't try to use fingertricks unless there's a really nice one. That's what I do.

 

[senopath]

So, you/they just read the alg and scramble the cube..?
What about random moves?

Sory for stupid questions, but i think, fast scrambling is as cool as fast solving..
LOL..

You won't eventually.

Don't use random move scrambles for averages though, because you tend to do the moves your hands do best the most, and this leads to poor scrambling. You can't be truly random. That is, if that is what you meant by "random moves".

type D locks up a lot if you aren't a precise cuber

Practice finger trick until you don't have to see the cube while scrambling

Yeah, i can feel it..

Any suggestion about another type?

mmm..
Yes, i can sramble without looking at the cube.

 

[rubiknewbie]

I think how fast you scramble has some correlation to how fast you solve. Lookahead and a bit of finger tricks.

Everyone said 'fingertrick', ok, i know, but 'lookahead', i don't know what you/they are meant..
Is it lookahead on scramble algs or something else..?

 

[rubiknewbie]

Actually lookahead is far more important than fingertricks for scrambles since the scrambles you are given may not be good for fingertricks.

I am of course talking about reading off random scramble algorithms from the screen, not your own scrambles (that one everyone can do fast).

Oh you're right sorry! I now have negative time scrambles!! pwnage scrambles FTW! Thanks miniGOINGS!
