Im new to speed cubing and im in a bit of a pickle

[ricepaddy69]

Hi. I'm new to the whole speed cubing scene. I've had my cube for a while now and can solve it but only with the algorithms it comes with and i know there are better and faster ways to solve a cube. My fastest solve is about 1min 20sec. so i was hoping if anyone could help me solve my cube faster?

ZB method!
Hahaha, just kidding.

You should check out the wiki section and go from there.
Look through different methods and try them out, you might like what you see.

EDIT:I suggest this:http://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Fridrich_method

search for Badmephisto on you tube and watch his tutorials, start out with "how to solve the rubik's cube" it's a basic beginner method that sets you up very well for the Fridrich method, which is a really popular speedsolving method that allows people to get times under 20 sec.

I suggest you start learning 2look OLL and PLL. It will decrease your times by like 20-30 seconds and I currently get sub 40 with it. also consider learning intuitive fridrich, a VERY fast speedsolving method.

I used to be in the same boat. While I STILL am slow, I reccomend learning, as stated above, 2-look LL (last layer) after learning Pogobat's beginner method.
