How often do you cube?

[5BLD]

I pen spin during class, always thumbaround though, as I'm only learning charge now and if I do it wrong it flies out of my hand.

How can I view who has voted?

 

[Olji]

Ah, remember I had troubles with charge too when I started, find a pen with some weight on both ends (put eraser parts on both sides of a pencil or putting one cap on each side on a marker for example), that made it easier for me, and you will soon get the motion down so you can do it with normal pens and pencils.

EDIT: To get back to topic: Cubing in public isn't that bad, but when they ask me to solve it before them my hands shake as hell, but I still get good times, maybe one or two seconds below average.

You can do a charge, sonic, fingerpass, and thumbaround with a regular pencil.

Olji: I simply feel uncomfortable although people don't seem to annoy me too much.
I need to get it in my head that cubing in public is okay.
Also once I did a BLD solve on the bus and when I took off my blindfold everyone was staring at me which felt creepy. It was a succes tho.

Penspinning: ill try that. Right now I'm using a heavy metal pen... But maybe if I used a long biro with caps on both ends...?

Hershey: no, I can't because I'm a beginner. However eventually I'll be able to.

I cube when I have nothing else to do with my hands, toilet seems to be the best time to cube for me

Only 4 days before a competition. or when I'm bored.

The toilet DOES seem like the perfect place but it just... Doesn't... Seem right.

You can do a charge, sonic, fingerpass, and thumbaround with a regular pencil.

You can do Infinity, figure 8, I-sonic, taps, twisted sonic, inverse sonic etc. with a regular pencil, but using a mod will make it easier to learn the trick, so you can do it on a regular pencil afterwards.

my average is somehow better in the bathroom.... at least there isn't a camera in the cube or anything.... just have to make sure nothing falls in the toilet

 

[5BLD]

Hm. I need to try cubing in the toilet.
I think it'll be a bit too far to take my camera and computer and record an average though.

FYI: I would NOT watch that average video...
But cubing it the toilet is nice, when I started I challenged myself to solve it before I was done, just as I did challenge myself the day after I learned to solve it, I had to solve the cube before turning of the alarm in the morning...

 

[5BLD]

Heh. I will do it... But not record it...

 

[angham]

I guess penspinning and cubing just go together. I've got an rsvpmx penspinning pen. I seriously recommend anyone of any penspinning ability to get a proper pen for it

 

[5BLD]

Yeah, penspinning and cubing both require high amounts of dexterity.

 

[Keroma12]

Whenever I have spare time at home. Which has been never, since I started university.

 

[Hovair]

I cube literally all the time. Now in science class or study hall my teachers say put up your cubes class. Cause there are like 5 other cubers in my school.

 

[iEnjoyCubing]

Mostly at home, I sometimes do a few solves during the school day, but not many.

 

[David1994]

Not often really.

Happened to me yesterday. 5x5 center cap.

 

[nlCuber22]

I cube on the crapper because I find that it's prime time for practice. However, I don't do much public cubing. Only in my spare time, and it comes after most of my other occupations (friends, running, piano, guitar, "the woman", etc.).
