Hey All,
I want to prefix this with this statement: I know that there is no best cube for any method, I know the best Roux users can get sub-ten second solves with any current budget cube. I get everyone has their own preferences regardless of their method.
I love trying out new cubes and I'm looking for recommendations in regards to using Roux Method. I'd love a cube that allows for very easy/smooth M turns. I'd also like a cube that is just fun to use and assists in a Roux style solving.
Some of the best users, such as Sean Villanueva and Kian Mansour, use Valk variations such as the Valk Elite, Valk 3 M, or Valk Power in competitions as far as I can tell. I have heard of other popular Roux users using cubes such as the GTS3M, due to its ridges making the M slice easier to grip and turn in theory, the GAN 356 X, and even the budget Meilong 3x3.
I'd love to start a discussion about what cubes you all use for Roux and why. Maybe we can all narrow down a list of a few cubes to help new and existing Roux users "Roux" more effectively/have a more fun time in their Roux solves.
Thanks Everyone,
Rainger
