Afternoon, I am looking for some suggestions for new cubes. I recently picked up my cube again and am looking to replace them, got a couple basically falling apart.
looking for suggestions for these cubes, please note if any mods are suggested, and I noticed stickerless cubes are now legal, are...
Yep - we're around. I haven't found many of us, though haha.
there's this facebook group thing you could check out. Claims there may be a competition up at OU perhaps this fall, which would be pretty cool.

Hey guys, I've had quite a bit of a hiatus away from speedsolving now, but I heard that there may be a competition close to me soon, so I thought I'd scrub up.
I am hoping to get your guys' opinions on what kind of upgrades I should go for cube-wise. This is currently what I'm working with...

i realize that this was probably a thread bumped without realizing how old it was however i feel the most important question has yet to be asked in this thread. . .
coefficient of static friction or coefficient of kinetic friction?

self explanatory in my opinion
wait. . . excuse me while i see what is expected for threads in this subforum
brb - my apologies
yeah. . . i think i'm good with that nomination. . .
may be unnecessary, but I've just always wanted to post that pic lol
but allow me to be clear - zeroing is real
however the faz = f2l after zeroing trollolololololol
that is at least as far as i understand it

this is a very true post. . .
gah, i've used Petrus as my main f2l method for a long long time and i've only had 1 sub 20 avg of 5. . . i routinely get 16-18 solves, but to average is soooo hard sometimes. . . my last avg of 5 was 20.xx and avg of 12 was 21.xx
definitely takes time however...

it's a little bit opportunistic, but not much.
When the last slot can be filled with R U R' or R' U' R i would just insert/OLL
However I find, maybe it's just the way I build my blocks, that I most often find my self where I could insert the last CE pair with R' U R or R U' R' and those are the...
