Three cube in a row

[EmersonHerrmann]

I can easily get sub-20...but when it comes to 3 cubes in a row, I just can't get sub-1 minute. Should I inspect a bit more? Any tips are welcome, thanks!

EDIT: Sorry, meant to say "Three cubes in a row"

EDIT 2: YESYESYESYESYES!!!!! FINALLY I GOT MY FIRST SUB-1!!! 58.76! YAY!

I had a very similar experience Its pretty strange. I still struggle to get my sub1's even now sometime, heh. No idea what goes wrong

Have a very good idea of how to solve all 3 crosses?...

good job on the sub-1 and when ur inspecting the cube look for the cross and after u found all ur cross pieces look for ur first F2L case if you can do that. and do that for all three cubes. hope that helped!

What I do is inspect all 3 cubes well, and when you're doing the PLL for a cube, you can again inspect a little. This way, you should be able to start immediatly.

Remember that it is max 15 seconds inspection no matter how many cubes you do. It is not that easy to find 3 crosses in 15 seconds. I do inspect one and the rest I orient so I can see the D-centre and some of the cross edges and then I go.

I find it best if you place each cube so you can see the first few moves of the cross by looking at the U and F face, so you can prevent stalling at the very beginning of each solve because you can look at it during the LL of the previous cube

Also, remembering 3 full crosses in 15 seconds in kinda hard and easy to forget, so if you maybe just try to remember the first 2 or 3 moves of the last 2 cubes, it may be better. After that, the rest of the cross and the beginning of the F2L will just come along

Yeah, the time it took me to do 3 is what would normally take to do 4. But one of the cubes locked up a lot.

Yep, it does not help much if you are fast if you got crappy cubes, you need three good ones to get to the better times (I only got 2 really nice ones and one semi nice that I use for 3 in a row).

EDIT: How is it handled for Petrus and Roux solves? I guess Petrus Step 1 would maybe be just a little more difficult than finding a cross. And maybe for Roux you have to find as much as you can?

All rules are independent from the used methods.
