    phalentin's APB progress thread

    So i was at Swiss Nationals this past weekend and i did really well. The comp had four rounds of 3x3 which i really wanted to take advantage of. I absolutely butchered the first solve though and got a 16.58 because i had to keyhole a 2x2x3-corner after making a mistake. I think that helped me...

    i just framecounted in an ao12 and it was about 0.26 seconds Anyway, I did a lot of solves again two days ago and today (590 and 290). I think I'm getting better with ZBLL recog, I've now revised the hard cases and I feel much more comfortable recognising. On Sunday I got a new PB ao500 of...

    phalentin's APB progress thread

    So, last weekend I had a competition. In the first round I got a 9.19 ao5 which I was really happy with (I got a 7.13 PR2 single). Afterwards, I had a really long break and during practice, I averaged almost sub-9 which gave me hope for the next round. But then in the second round I got a 9.82...

    phalentin's APB progress thread

    Hello! I'm starting this thread mainly for self-motivation and to track my progress. Feel free to give advice (although there are not too many other APB users out there lol) Like I said in the title, I use the APB method. I know all of the alg sets (not EOPair, but that's not part of the...

    [Member Intro] hello cubers

    Hello everyone, i'm Valentin. I started cubing in summer 2021 (i learned to solve the cube during covid) and after beginner method, i started learning roux. I got down to a global avg of about 11.8 and a PB of 6.47. In autumn of 2023 i switched to the then relatively new APB method. I've since...

    Magnets Discussion and Help thread

    Has anyone tried putting Maglev into the CH WeiLong WR M 2021 yet? I think, that i've seen a post of someone putting RS3M 2021 Maglev into this cube but i can't find it anymore. Could this combination be any good?

    [Member Intro] Hello

    Hello, I am Valentin. I am from Switzerland and I've been cubing since around 2 years, but I just recently started speedsolving. For the first few days, I watched some CFOP tutorials, but i didn't like the heavily algorithm based method, so I did some solves with Roux (with a tutorial) an I...
