uh, "lower case R...?"

.....

 

[amostay2004]

Or you could say like 'wide R turn' etc

 

[Godmil]

I'd say 'Small r'.

 

[miniGOINGS]

Mini R.

Does anyone knows how to make algs with cube explorer that just deals with orientation of pieces rather having to solve an entire peice

There is a file that comes with cube500 that explains everything about it. If I remember correctly it has to do with holding either alt, shift, or ctrl, while clicking the piece/sticker.

Thanks guys, and I have one final question
What's so good about Cube Smith stickers/tiles?
Do they offer more grip or make your solving times faster?
And are stickers or tiles better? When I thought of tile, I think of those crappy tile cubes where the tiles stick out.

There's nothing magical about cubesmith stickers. They're just good quality.

 

[freshcuber]

Tiles look good but can become slippery if your hands are moist. They're good for mod cubes and cubes you won solve often because they look really nice and don't chip, fade, or peel. Stickers for performance and tiles for aesthetics.

your LL an Cross is much faster than mine and i average about 24.

So in these 24 second solves of yours, your LL takes longer than 15 seconds, and your cross longer than 5 seconds? I want to see video of your 2-3 second F2L

Haiyan Memory or Ultimate GuHong?
I like light and crispy cubes, and can't decide. I'm pretty rough with my cubes.

Last sunday I fell in love with an X-cube, where is the cheapest place I can buy one?

 

[RyanReese09]

Crispy feel = Haiyan memory.

But if you are rough then you will lockup Alot. I suggest Guhong or maybe Lingyun.

Ok, noob question here: What is the best way to perform something like R U R' U? There are quite a few Eg algs that use it, and I cant figure out a way to do it other than with a regrip... And obviously that is pretty slow

 

[ilikecubing]

What is a good time with slow turning on square 1?

 

[vcuber13]

for me i need to turn as fast as i can or i get a bad time

I use my pinky for the last U. Or you can use the ring finger. For me, the pinky feels natural.

 

[freshcuber]

Like wontolla said I use my other fingers. Not sure which specifically but I just pull it over.

 

[minime12358]

Oh wow, thats awkward, but thanks, I will practice doing that.

 

[uberCuber]

I do the second U by using my left index finger and pushing on the LBU sticker.

R U R' like regular, then right hand push the RFU with index? you will end up in a position in which you are are doing your next move with an awkwardish setup, but if its R or R' its good. if its F or F', you'd have to practice the trick, but it is still efficient.
