What systems do world record holders use?

[Vedyl]

Greetings,

I was wondering what speedcubing method is generally considered to be the fastest, and which ones do record holders use?
And which one in your opinion is the most fun one?

Regards, Vedyl

Feliks Zemdegs- CFOP(3x3)
Kevin Hays - CFOP(3x3)
Mats Valk - CFOP(3x3)
Sebastian Weyer - Yau(4x4)

All I know off the top of my head.

I'm assuming you're wondering per event.
2x2- nub, Full EG plus other randomness
3x3- Feliks Zemdegs, CFOP
4x4- Sebastian Weyer, yau
5x5- 7x7- redux is used by most top people.
Skewb- Jonatan Klosko, Sarah intermediate

Excellent, thank you!

I'm assuming you're wondering per event.
2x2- not nub, Full EG plus full AUF for CLL, EG-1, and almost all for EG-2
3x3- Feliks Zemdegs, CFOP
4x4- Sebastian Weyer, yau
5x5- 7x7- redux is used by most top people.
Skewb- Jonatan Klosko, Sarah intermediate

AUF isn't a method nub

It's a substep that helps you get faster by a lot

OH: CFOP with COLL except sunes, most 2GLL except sunes, random ZBLLs

Skewb - Jonatan Klosko, Sarah intermediate and 4 sec so fast men!

A few more

Pyra - Method Neutral
Clock - Only one method
3BLD - letter pair memo + 3 style execution

This should come with a giant asterisk, so here it is:


*Using these methods will not turn you into a world record holder. It's not the method, it's the work ethic combined with the talent that makes these guys world record holders.

For the sake of completeness.
Fewest Moves - everything possible basically, including NISS and insertions.
Feet - I guess CFOP with low move count.
Megaminx - Blockbuilding / Fridrich
Square-1 - Lars with EP parity afaik
4bld - 5bld and multi: 3style.
