Hi All
I got my first cube when they first came out way back in the 80's
It took some time but with trial and error and books I eventually learned how to do it. I still remember the old algs to this day lol. I average about 3 mins using those algs.
Earlier this year I decided to start on learning newer and better algs to see what times I can manage. Also to give me something to do during lockdown.
I am learning the CFOP method. I am getting reasonable at the cross now, anywhere between 3-10 seconds depending on the scramble.
The F2L I can do intuitively but I am not very efficient and taking some time to find the pairs.
I use 2 look for OLL & PLL.
I am now averaging around 55 seconds with a personal best of 35.
I am trying to find a complete list of algs for F2L so that I can learn what is better on the cases I am bad at. I have checked so many sites and have so many algs saved for this that I am lost. Also ones I know I am really bad at I cant seem to find algs for. Something like corner in top layer and middle piece in centre layer but at opposite side of the cube from where it needs to go. Others too but thats the one I am currently trying to get better at.
I do plan on going full OLL & PLL at some stage but I know that my F2L is seriously letting me down so I think I need to do some serious work on that as my next step.
I recently bought a GAN 365 XS cube. Yeah overkill I know for my level but why not
Cheers
Richard
