    Official 3x3 averages visualization

    Every once in a while I get the urge to visualization some statistics, and cubing is perfect for that. Inspired by my own graph I posted a couple of months ago (https://www.speedsolving.com/threads/histogram-of-all-official-3x3-results.90380/), I created a video which uses all official 3x3...

    I officially hit sub-20 (3x3, 19.07) with my timer a few days ago, and I thought I'd tell people how I got here. I haven't really posted here before so I'll just start from the beginning: About a decade ago I learned how to solve a 3x3, so I had some knowledge how to solve the cube without...

    3x3 Super RS3M V2 - Moyu Needs To Think.

    I previously wrote a whole review, before seeing that the RS3M V5 is out. After trying that, i can confirm that the V5 is slightly worse, but for the price the Super V2 is no longer worth it. This is a shortened version. The Super V2 is an amazing cube. Perfect speed out of the box - no...

    Snigel's progression thread (currently aimlessly cubing)

    I've updated this thread to be a general progression thread, so no longer focusing exclusively on CFOP. After reaching my first goal, I have lost some of my motivation to get faster at regular 3x3, so I'll try blindfolded for a while and see how it goes. Current goals 3BLD Three successful...

    I'm not quite sure how many people on these forums can appreciate this, but for the few of you, I think you will enjoy this analysis for what it is. Basically, I wanted to compare an average of 25 in 3x3 and square-1 to find out which one I'm actually faster in. I'll post it as a spoiler since...

    Cubing is so weird sometimes

    So I was just doing some solves. On one of them I tried to do a pseudo pair which ended up making the solve 30 seconds (I average 20 lol). The solve after I got a 14.53 (PB was 14.29). 4 solves after that I got a 14.18, my PB! Cubing can be so strange and funny at times.
