Looking Into Skewb

[Cheese11]

Okay, so I've been wanting to get into a new puzzle, and I've decided on getting a skewb. The only problem is, what kind of skweb should I get, and where should I get it from. I normally order from Lightake but the last time I ordered from them, it took two months to get here. Any ideas?

I think that the lanlan skewb is that best.

You can buy here. ($13.00 w/shipping to canada)

You can also buy here. ($10.49 w/shipping to canada)

Or here, but it's much more expensive. ($17.00 w/shipping to canada)

EDIT: You can also buy here, which seems more expensive, but it has cheaper shipping so is overall cheaper. ($11.25 w/shipping to Canada)

I prefer the LanLan. Also, try using the "What Cube Should I Get" thread next time.

Lanlan or mefferts

Okay thanks. I didn't know there was one XD

The LanLan Skewb is by far the best. Don't lube it. It'll pop. All. The. Time.
Get to 30 with Chris Bird's method before switching to Kirmeep or acubist's method or my method. I'm currently generating algs to bridge the last two steps in my method, but it has 75 cases. However, Sarah Strong's method solves U layer + D centre, and then the rest of the cube in one alg. You can ask her for the alg sheet, because I lost it. =(

anyway, one thing you can do is join the Skewb Race in the Forum Competitions section. =)
Hopes that you can be fast! =3

I still need to get one first

I reccomend a lanlan skewb. And If you ever need skewb help just bother Sarah about it.

The reason lightake got there in 2 months was probably because of either the holidays or the mail strike.

I took out the time the mail strike affected it. With the mail strike it took 3 months.

My LL pops every single solve while my QJ turns amazingly. ):

You could copy&paste forum code right from that page (look at the "Embed this image" options).

But you said you wanted to look into it. How are you going to look into it if it doesn't have any holes?
