Hey, nice! Keep it up, and struggle for that sub 1 minute like I did about 2 weeks ago.

I also recommend you get another cube. Dont be too worried about the type or stuff, just get a legit DIY cube (type A, C, or a Diansheng)

btw, any tips on memorizing Z-perm?

 

[DaBear]

dont worry about the slow times, your f2l will pick up a whole lot with practice. i mean i started using f2l earlier today and began timing myself with it, at first my times were over 2 minutes, but within an hour my average(including the 2min times) is down to 1:30ish

what z perm are you using?

 

[BowDown2Gir]

If I were you, do the opposite of the F2L slot pushing and keep practicing them. Also, try to look ahead. Im still learning too, so keep at it.

Also, do 2LOLL and 1LPLL

You forgot dChan! Unless he's Viet or something. I dunno, he never told me.
And he's a TERRIBLE teacher.

what z perm are you using?

the one with lots of M's and U's

might just be the way my brain works and this doesn't help you at all but i remember:

2-1-2-1 || 1-2-2-2-1

Where every other move is either a M or a U (you still need to memorize which way your M-slices go but its quite easy...eventually you wont even think this it will just be executed w/muscle memory)

Good luck and welcome
