Cubing in Cold Weather.

[miniGOINGS]

lol 50 degrees is warm im walking around in a tee shirt

same here. 50 degrees is about perfect temperature

How the heck do you get 50 degrees? Oh wait, you use Fahrenheit...

Good times. Lol. Celsius is so overrated.

Wow, this winter, as soon as it gets under -40, I'm doing an average. Then I'll go inside and do another one and post my results.

I solved a cube in -50 degree weather.


(BTW, I use Celsius, because I'm BOSS)

That's -58 Fahrenheit, and is that with or without wind chill?

Living in CO, I have trouble with this. As far as a solution goes, how about these?

With.

Without, it was like -40 something.

Since we're at temperatures, I'd like to ask. My first cubing winter is just around a corner, and I was wondering if cold does any harm to cube(-15 to -25 degrees Celsius)?

Nope. and I have evidence because I froze my cube to see what would happen and nothing happened at all.

WOUW :O I'm gonna try do an average with a cube that is -20 degrees now xD

well you can take a break of cubing , or come to my country witch has 35 - 40 (and some times 50) degree C

yea that's very hot

For a few weeks now it has started to be below freezing in the mornings and the temperature doesn't really go much higher during the day. So I've had frozen, not-so-flexible and definitely not for cubing hands. The only solution I've found is either not to get out at all (just stay inside and cube so your hands won't get cold) or cube like you've never cubed before (do a massive 500 solve average just to get your hands warm enough to get good times).

you might want to try rubbing sports cream into your hands. It will increase circulation and warm up your hands. I recommend the brands that use capcasin so you won't smell like an old man.

What I do is only move the cube around slowly for about half and hour, and then u are ready to go

Gaahhh!!! I so freaking hate this. My averages at home have gone back up to 30, yet in school, where the classes are warm, I've been getting a 21 second average with some sub 20s!!! I hate winter!

My 3x3 average shaved four seconds over the weekend due to a heat wave ftw (now it's 32 after the a100).
anyway, when I get outside and it's cold and windy, then my times get 50s.

BLARGH.
