hi, mine is more of a series of questions as i'm a bit of a noob:

can you give brief summary of the characteristics of rubik's cube types a through f?

also, what speedcube would you recommend for summon who is a beginner speedcuber? I'm worried I'll get one that's too fast and i''l find it hard to control, also which in your opinion is the best speedcube?

Sorry for so many questions but i would greatly appreciate if you could help

Thanks.

Thanks for the information, why do you especially recommend the a5?

which COLL alg would u recommend?

 

[a small kitten]

If it had to be on the page, I'd use the last one. I'll try to dig out my algs when I get back to my laptop.

if you have a better one please either pm me it or post it here. i personally dont like any one of those algorithms :fp

 

[a small kitten]

R'URU'BL'BLB2RB'R'B

or

(R'URU')x'(UL'ULU2RU'R'U)

I do this for 2H. The OH alg I use is atrocious. Sometimes I ignore it and do OLL.

 

[RyanReese09]

not to be picky, it's a nice algorithm, but my cubing style doesnt give me fast transitions from B to side moves such as R and L
that's part of the reason i don't like one of the algorithms in that list

sorry about that :O

if anyone has another alg preferably 2gen with R and U (or 3 gen with F ) then please post
or if you know COLL sites which might have another algorithm on it ..yeah

edit-ill try the rotation

 

[a small kitten]

Yes. The rotation can be done very fast. I just did this alg around 1.1 with a spacebar timer. Definitely my fav alg for this ugly case.

thank you sir. just reading hte alg off screen it flows nicely and just from reading it off screen i can perform it relatively fast considering i dont have it memorized at all

very nice algorithm with the rotation put in :tu

2.61 pb and its in muscle memory now i think, i dont even think about the notation
edit- 2.47
wow, this alg is SOOO FAST
edit-2.29

 

[a small kitten]

What do you do for that T case with the vertical bars?

 

[RyanReese09]

What do you do for that T case with the vertical bars?

you'd have to link me to the case

1 2 3 4 5 or 6

 

[a small kitten]

T6. I fail that one handed.

 

[RyanReese09]

if your a right OH then this is probably a good one. i dont have a OH alg for that but from looking at the wiki, for a OH righty this ones good
