I would totally order a Shengshou 6x6, but I already ordered one from WitEden last Friday. Damn.

OLLCP?

Nothing in my post contradicts the existence of OLLCP.

Or in case I misinterpreted your intention, no I don't ever actively use OLLCP.

The ShengShou 6x6 and Mini DaYan + MF8 4x4 has been in iCubeMart stock for a day now. Again, we are the first US store to stock this item. Many thanks to all of our supporters DD

I fail :fp Should have ordered that when I ordered my Shengshou 6x6! Can't believe I missed that. Oh well, I'll order again in the next few weeks.

Some solve breakdowns (ao5)... (average for each step on the right)
I timed each individually, with only the first block getting full inspection.

First Block: 2.85 0.61 2.18 4.66 2.31 |2.522
Second Block: 3.63 3.41 3.38 4.16 2.56 |3.428
CMLL: 1.95 2.07 2.37 2.24 1.96 |2.118
LSE: 5.1 1.66 4.61 2.45 2.02 |3.168
Total: 13.53 7.75 12.54 13.51 8.85 |11.236

What do you think I should work on most? (this particular average was fairly good, though, which is why it's sub-12; I'll probably post another later)
As a comparison, my very next average of 5 was 12.42.

Where can I get a Type B cube?

 

[clifford2704]

if I practice with an f3 and upgrade to my zhanchi later will it be better? i avg around 40 ish atm

For me, it was better because I practiced on my alpha 1 and played with a friend's guhong and my times went down more than 5 secs. (after getting used the cube obviously)

First block: 2.45, 3.04, 1.57, 0.37, 4.02 |2.29
Second block: 2.79, 3.38, 3.12, 5.22, 4.03 |3.708
CMLL: 1.5, 1.95, 3.2, 1.38, 1.54 |1.914
LSE: 1.95, 3.23, 4.13, 3.34, 3.86 |3.302
Total: 8.69, 11.6, 12.02, 10.31, 13.45 |11.214

These times aren't totally accurate by the way. Oh, and the 0.37 First block was, like... 2 moves.

Any one know of any new cubes that haven't come out yet but are soon? 3x3's mainly.

 

[Incanumix]

I'm trying to find better PLL Algs, but I'm experiencing extreme difficulties.
I'm spending hours on each alg, trying out every alg that I see fits my finger tricks, but I can't find any that I actually agree on.
How do you guys find better algs? what do you do?
And since each of my PLL is under 1~3 seconds, I can't really see any difference in times.

I found there's usually just a few popular ones for each that most people use. How about posting some of the algs you're not liking and seeing what other people suggest?

A lot of cubes have been released lately from several different companies. Give it a little time. I'm sure more will be announced soon. Most of the cubes I know of that are supposed to be coming out are above 3x3x3 cubes.

What is the WCA of Speedstacking? (website?)

[iseldoff]

Does anyone know of a web site or anything like that I can go to to see all the new cubes that have recently come out and or the cubes that are comming out in general?

How often should I clean the springs of my GuHong?

 

[Speedmaster]

If you touch it and your finger is black.you should clean it( not if you have a white cube^^)
