How to pair 2 edges at a time on 4x4 - cityzach

[cityzach]

please watch this if:

you want a new edge pairing method that is faster then 1 pair

tell me if this helps anyone!

I actually taught that "method" (slash technique) to myself when I just started teaching myself 4x4.

I'm sure it would be helpful for some others, though. Nice vid.

thanks!

thanks, i just started solving 4x4(also 5x5) a few time back using 1 at a time, and no wonder most of the time of my solve went into edge pairing. This is something very easy to follow, and i m sure it will help me improve my times

 

[cityzach]

thanks alot! glad it helped

Cool vid. Good to see a clear tutorial on this.

 

[Winston Yang]

Great tutorial

Very good tutorial. I like that you go over all 3 possible cases from easy to hardest.
But I think you have to know something about edge pairing (like how to pair edges 1 by 1) to understand this tutorial.
And it helped I was doing 1 by 1 pairing and tought about switching somewhere in the future but I decided I'll switch right know

Thanks! Helped me out some

Good tutorial but isnt this called 2-gen? :/

No. 2-Gen is when you are solving with using only 2 moves.

No. 2-Gen is when you are solving with using only 2 types of moves.

Fixed that for you.

Is this fast??Do any really fast cubers use it??

Fixed that for you.

Gahh. Wasn't thinking right. Thanks.

Depends. Even single pairing can be FAST technically. But some fast cubes combine this with three pairing (solving 3 at a time). For example, they will do their edges something like 3-3-2-2-2, or a bunch of different combinations.
