I would prioritize learning the algs first. You can train the recognition while you do slower solves. That way you can learn it while strengthening your PLL muscle memory.
but as with all things cubing related it depends on how you personally learn things faster. It probably isn’t the same for...
I can recommend the cubeskills PDFs from feliks zemdegs Homepage. I’ve used them along with the corresponding YouTube video for the best fingertricks on those algs. Same goes for Full OLL.
Smartcubes need to go a long way before this can happen. The internals of the Gan356i (best smartcube in my opinion) aren’t perfect. And i rarely use mine because of that. If cubing was a Mainstream hobby there would already be such cubes. But since it’s a small market development won’t be so...
I know that feeling. I feel the same. Im also stuck between 28 and 35 seconds. I know Full pll and full oll. But I stopped improving since the beginning of the year. I just stopped timing and just solve casually. A friend once was the same speed as me but while i stopped improving hes around...
I really like their 3x3s. I especially like the easy customizable design. I hate adjusting tensions with screws because you have to check by eye if you have the tensions equal on all sides. That’s one thing everyone should do. I don’t really care about the price. I treat my puzzles like video...
Learning full OLL isn’t as hard as it seems. I’m already 28 (guess thats above the average age) and it took me 1 month. I learned about 1-2 algs per day and after that i practiced about 30 minutes in jperms OLL Trainer.
Since most cubers learn OLL at one point i guess theres no way around it. A...
I will definitely check this one out once i get of work. I’m currently struggling on becoming consistent with my solves. PB is 27 without skips. Butmy ao12 is around 38 secs.
Well if the cube is 100% dry there will be some kind of friction between the plastics. But i don’t think this will ruin your cube anytime soon.
Isn’t it possible to order some lube from speedcubeshop or Cubicle or even from amazon?
In Germany we can still order everything as usual.
Stay safe :)
Just posting my update to the post i made when i started learning full OLL. I finished learning OLL on 19th of march. I started out with learning one dot case per day and after that i roughly followed the dot cases by a 2algs- 1alg - 2algs - 1 alg .... rhythm. I used the cubeskills pdf and...
Currently I’m quite happy with the Xv2. I own all three of the mentioned cubes.
The Xv2 seems like a good blend between the X and the XS. The XS feels very light and kind of hollow. The Xv2 feels a little bit more solid but everything else is quite the same exept the magnets.
i would get the...
