[Unofficial] Pillowed Pyraminx - 2.78 avg5 (including a sneakpeak of it's cornercutting)

[Carrot]

The 2.78 is the average of the first 5 solves... (look in the youtube description for scrambles)
It turns extremely fast.
The tips are good too.
I still have to get used to its shape.
It can cut corner like no other pyraminx.
It's easy to adjust its tension.
The tips doesn't pop.
The edges are kind of unpoppable, the only way I can pop them is to loosen the puzzle... a lot.

What do you mean? of course there are springs for the screws that goes into the core

Is that allowed in competition ? (sorry for my bad english)

NO.

 

[qqwref]

It should be - it doesn't allow any more pieces than usual to be seen at once, unlike pillowed cubes.

This looks pretty neat. I've been waiting for a better Pyraminx mechanism and I think this just might be it.

it doesn't allow any more pieces than usual to be seen at once, unlike pillowed cubes.

Happy face!
