Fridrich users - What do you look for during inspection

[Hiero]

Just the cross maybe 95% of the time. the cross has to be pretty easy for me to worry about my first pair. I do spend the execution of my cross looking for a pair though, as I imagine most people do.

I do pretty much the same thing and average about 25 seconds. Every great once in a while I will see an f2l pair that will not be moved around too much during the cross and I can use that. Usually I find the corner I'm going to use during the cross.

Alright, who's the one sicko who can see the full F2L in inspection?

 

[Samania]

First I look for what side I start with, then cross pieces.

Lucas Garron is really good at that, when he wants to be

I plan the entire cross, trying to do it in the fewest moves possible (5,6 most of the times) and right now working on do it BLD, although i'm a little slow (6-7 s)

 

[Selkie]

Currently I try and plan all moves for the cross plus keep half an eye open for extended cross. But having only been speed cubing 5 weeks I am thankful if my plans for said cross actually work correctly :rolleyes: I often see a nice connected F2L pair but don't, as yet, have the experience to ensure I do not split it. But happy to have got my cross down to about 4 seconds when it was 8 a couple of weeks ago

A bit more experience and I will try some BLD crosses in readiness for greater look ahead

Cross + Full F2L... not

I wanted to go for three cross edges.

someone needs to make a tutorial on x-cross, blockbuilding and seeing things in inspection (kirjava get one sorted out )

You can't teach blockbuilding.

 

[jack3256]

you can give tips though and you can give tips on building an x-cross

 

[irontwig]

Get good at building 2x2x2s when you're that try to influence the two remaining edges.

What I find annoying about that (In general) you have 3 different "crosses" you can make

Thewestonian has a good xcross tutorial on youtube.....as for blockbuilding,learn petrus and roux,they both have heavy dependence on blockbuilding(though roux has heavy dependence on M,M' and M2 moves as well)

 

[paulangas]

i see full cross, and sometimes 1 pair of f2l

 

[hic2482w]

Okay, who voted for full f2l?? Thats a bit much during inspection, don't you guys think?

 

[jack3256]
