[fundash]

hello humans...
I think i'm ready to start learning the CFOP (Fridrich) system and I just don't know where to start. I was wondering ifany of you could help me?

[fundash]

ya, i realy want to get to sub-40

How the hell did you get 47 seconds with the beginners method? I use the Fridrich method and my PB is 43...

first you can start learning intuitive f2l.if you already know how to do the 3rd layer this is the first step

Here are some of the videos I have found useful along with a couple sites hope this helps and good luck with it.

Learn some LL until you're about 50 seconds, then go for intuitive F2L.

It was SUPER lucky:
1 move cross
only on part of F2L had to be done
Last layer corners were all correct
only corner turning alg on two corners

Erik can do sub-20 with layer by layer and 4LLL, so 47 isn't too big.

I just switched to the Fridrich method a couple of months ago. Here is what I have done in the last few months:

I learned the 6 or so cross-based OLL's. That way, all I had to do was make a cross (using FURU'R'F' or something similar) and then I could orient the last layer.

I learned all of the PLL's.

Then, I learned how to solve the F2L intuitively. I watched badmehpisto's videos on youtube.

Yeah, then I just practiced a lot and I just started getting sub-40 times earlier this week!!!

just go in some video in youtube, do what they say, and you will be fine, that is how i learn it

Morning gents, I was in your situation not long ago myself so I know where you're coming from.

I'm currently learning the lazy 4LLL method of Fridrich and found a really good site which will help you go from LBL to Fridrich.

http://badmephisto.dyndns.org/site/

That guy is a legend with a very easy to follow style of teaching. Have a browse there and it'll get you started.


Oh and a quick tip - Make sure you stick with intuitive F2L. It WILL start out quite slow, but once you pick up speed, you'll be flying. Patience is the key.

Cheers

so, I should learn the OLL/PLL first?

 

[byu]

Learn 2-look OLL and PLL first.

 

[fundash]

Thanks, now i'm on my way to learning fridrich!

Erik can do sub-20 with layer by layer and 4LLL, so 47 isn't too big.

And he can do it in 7 seconds with an advanced method. That means the beginner's method is MUCH slower. That was my point. But I see that fundash got a very lucky solve there, so that makes sense.

 

[fundash]

OK, now though do i learn OLL or PLL first?

You can go to Dan Harris's site called www.cubestation.co.uk and learn all the CFOP things there. If you don't want to learn all 118 CFOP algs, go to the youtube user Badmephisto.
