2010 Oklahoma Open

This is my first time competing so I want to do good and need some advice on which cube I should use. Taiyan/Dayan II or Ghost hand II ?
 
If you can make a comparison video (a solve or avg5 on each?), go ahead and I'll watch it.
If not, I'll try and look up some info on the cubes, although you could do that yourself. Still, if I have time to help I will.
 
I will make and avg of 5 solve for each soon ( Ghost hand II should come in mail today or tomorrow) ive had Taiyan II for about a month now and it did improve my time from avg of ~41 seconds to ~ 34 seconds and ive heard that the ghost hand II is better so I got one. Also at the competition I will probably buy an Alpha from Anthony while Im there. So If anyone has both then which is better Ghost hand II or Taiyan II.
 
Arrrg! Something has gone terribly wrong with my pyraminx. One of the trivial tips doesn't follow the layer underneath it anymore. If anyone has a decent pyra they would be willing to sell or let me borrow for the competition it would be much appreciated.
 
I got both. The Taiyan is clicky and the Ghosthand is smooth. The Ghosthand gets faster as you break it in, but it jams up more after it's all broken in. It's probably whichever one you are used to. I've used the Ghosthand alot more, so I'd go with that.

For me I'm deciding whether to go with the A2 or the F2. It's a similar comparison since the A2 is clicky and the F2 is smooth. I'm leaning towards the F2 right now though since I'm more used to it.

I have a QJ you can borrow for the competition if we don't go on at the same time ( I'm doin pyra too)
 
Somehow my pyraminx fixed itself so I probably won't need to borrow yours, thanks for the offer though. I am still looking to buy a good pyraminx for a back up.
 
Oh, and Michael, I'm not going to buy your cube (sorry), and I probably won't get a T-Shirt this time around either... I am going to buy a tennis ballmachine instead, so I need to save some money.

Your a tennis player? We should have a game.

I'm a worse tennis player than I am a speedcuber... that is why I need the ball machine :)
 
Since we have to leave that night, there's really no way we'll be able to play tennis, Michael. However, I'll gladly beat you some other time. Josh will too. Except he'll beat you with a dumbbell.
