Actually most of the time I’m not cubing or playing minecraft I’ll be doing something like cleaning cubes and applying lube and tensioning and stuff like that etc etc etc etc etc etc

Light lube (think I have the same one), don’t add too much or it gums up.
It depends on what 4x4 you have. Watch some tutorials
Yo do u actually use petrus

I'd say yes but it's personal preference imo. I like tighter tensions but I remember @OreKehStrah saying on discord that he prefers looser tensions

Hey there,
I am currently using the Weilong GTS 3M as my main but am confused a bit wit the tension system. Could anyone tell me how many clicks I have to do to make the cube have a fast spped.
Thanks!

It could be anything to your liking. So counting on from the default tension, there are 9 settings, and the lower the number, the faster the cube.
EDIT: You can also watch J Perm's video explaining it!

To be clear, the lower the number, the lower the spring tension (the thing tightening the cube/making it stiffer)

Hi,
I started cubing a year ago and bought the Gan 356 x. I realy like this cube, the magnets and speed is realy good. I practise a lot for the past few weeks(like more than an hour a day). But since the last few days, my cube feels slower and it is much harder too turn...
Does anyone now what the problem could be?
Do i need too clean it? Or use lube? (I never cleaned or lubed it before). If so, how should i do this?
I realy liked how the cube used to turn before. I hope someone can help me

My rs3m pops even after tightening it so what should I do?

It could be your turning style, how would you describe it? If it’s not very accurate this could be the reason

During my F2L I try to turn with accuracy there may not be to many lockups but in my last layer I lockup a lot.

Well then that’s what you need to work on, i find for me a tighter cube locks up more but you do what you want. It’s not the cube though, so i wouldn’t blame a cube until i’m sure it’s nothing about me or my turning style or whatever
