Hey, I want to get a new one handed cube.
I will get the A-V but I want to try some new ones.
What cubes are good for OH? I heard the F-III is good. I hate the guhong btw.

I use a Haiyan's Haiyan and a Lingyun, mostly because they're both smaller cubes. The Haiyan can be set reaaaallly loose without pops, which makes it pretty ideal for OH, but the lingyun can also go pretty loose and is very very fast

The lingun is very similar to the guhong right? Because i hate guhongs

I think I just get some A-v's and an F-III
Is F-III good?

If you hate GuHongs, then you'll like the F-III.

In what way are you comparing? In terms of turning, Lingyun feels different from guhong.

Don't know but they suck! And they pop like hell.
If you really want one I think you can get them on www.9spuzzles.com

I want to get some cubes... But I havent really got much to spend.
I want to get:
Lan Lan 2x2 - White
Ghosthand/Shengshou 2x2 - White
Dayan Guhong - Stickerless/Coloured plastic
Shengshou 4x4 - White

I live in Australia and was wondering if this is a good choice, I wont get going to any comps soon.
Thanks!

 

[RaresB]

thats good but if you are broke then only get one 2x2, it will save you around 5 dollars, better then nothing. But good choices

Hi!

If price isn't a problem, what's the best megaminx out there?

Hi!

Almost everyone will immediately respond with "personal preference", and I have to say there's no better answer then that. I'd reccomend the Mf8 type II megaminx. What I'd reccomend doing to it is:
-tension
-V5 corner mod
-rounding the tips of the feet of the corners
-Kickflip edge mod
-a good amount of lube

Thank you very much!!!

Just one more question, what's the difference between these two megaminxs:

http://www.speedcubeshop.com/apps/webstore/products/show/1309366

And which one should I get??

Thanks again.

One has Tiles (1-2mm thick bits of coloured plastic) the other just has stickers. Exactly the same otherwise. I think tiles look cool on Megaminxs but they do pop off frequently and need glued back on. But it's personal prefference.

Is there any huge difference between the Dayan Lingyun 3 and Dayan LingYun 4? The site I'm looking on has the 3 on sale, and I just want to know if I'll be missing out on anything huge.

The only difference I can see (from your post) is the number.

Seriously - which site are u referring to? And there is no such "Dayan Lingyun 3 and Dayan LingYun 4" - did you mean dayan 3 and dayan 4?

Dayan 3 = Lingyun
Dayan 4 = Lunhui

Which site is it?

 

[Jaycee]

Dayan III LingYun

OH. Nevermind, I get it now. Question answered.
