Some 4x4 walkthrough solves. I go over all of the things that I do differently from most people. Again, I average around 43 seconds, and if you have any questions, please ask!

Cube: Shenshou v4 (Florian+Konsta mod)
Method: Yau (Obviously)

Thanks for watching!

Please leave any comments or questions here or in the comments. Thanks!

Thanks, this helps me with my edge pairing and centres a lot

I average 55s but I don't really understand the "half-centers" part, however it seems to be preety good idea !

Maybe someone would shortly explain me this step?

I started to use the half-centers They are actually quite good, and the L2C are really really easy

These were amazing. Make more please!

I’ll try to better explain them in my next walkthrough solve video, but here you go:
Most people solve centers one at a time, first the blue, then the red etc. However, what I like to do, is I create a bar (red, for example), so I pair two red centers, a half center, and I put it in the L-slice. Then, I create another bar, another half-center, say blue, and I also put it in the L-slice, but also in the correct relative position to red (on top if you do white cross). So then I do it again, say with orange, and put it in the L-slice correct relative to the other two. Now I have three half-centers solved, all in the L-slice, all correct relative to one another. So if I put where the last center (green) would go on top, my R-slice is still free to do whatever I want, but I no longer need to do any 3R/Rww moves or rotations. (other than to look for pieces).

I hope this is clear, more walkthroughs are on the way.

Could you type out your OLL parity alg please? You went fast in the video, I wasn't able to catch it all.

In which I go more in depth into my OLL Parity alg, how I solve half-centers, and how to recognize PLL parity, and how to influence your PLL with it.

Cube: Shenshou v4 (fully modded)
OLL Parity Alg: Rw Lw U2 Lw' U2 Rw' U2' x' U2 Rw' U2' Rw U2 Rw' U2' Rw2 U2'

Again, leave any comments or questions in the comments. Thanks for watching!

I just posted a 42.47 avg12, which shows you how I solve things in reality, versus when I'm doing slow solves. I'm looking for tips, and so I'd really appreciate it if you'd go and check it out =)

Thanks guys =)

I think half-center is a great idea. Really appreciate it.

Thanks =) I actually learnt it from a really obscure video on Youtube from like 2010 (about 100 views). =P
