I don't think there are any.
I usually get my stuff from WitEden, and it comes in about a week. (I've never had any problems ordering from China and I've tried a few)
Hello, I have a question about 2-look OLL and 2-look PLL practice methods.
First please take into account that I'm only six days into cubing(never solved it before that) but I have already got the F2L Fridrich method down, well it takes forever but I can at least do it all by myself and I know what the hell I'm doing (I can see and decide). The LL is however taking far far more time and I'm having trouble seeing what I'm doing with the algs. I'm using. Therefore my question is how I most efficiently can practice this? If I use a scrambled cube I can't see if I mess up and if I solve it as normal it takes forever (5min per F2L at least) and then I might not even get a case I dont know yet. Or should I just study them like they where homework(they all look alike >_<)? What did you guys do? I tried setting up cases but that just takes to long for me at this stage. Thankful for any inputs on this.

If you're wanting to practice your OLL and PLLs then just perform the alg on a solved cube.. after a few repetitions it will come back to that case again and then solved. a little drilling like that will help cement the algs in your mind (and muscle memory). But don't try to learn too many new algs/cases in one go, one or two a day will be fine.
Ok, will do! Thanks!

Why does the g-perm always big cube?

I did a 3 cube relay and got three v perms. Take that probability!

V-perm is the only PLL I can't do OH, and at Harvard my first two solves I got V-perms and DNFed.

I think on 5x5 and up I fail at g-perms 80% of the time

How do I get used to solving my cross on the bottom instead of the top? Also, how do I make my cross more efficient?

The same way you learn to recognize PLL or OLL cases: practice. As for becoming more efficient, that is also practice but one thing I did to use fewer moves was to practice making an opposite cross. By that, I mean the cross is solved but you need to do a D2 at the end. Hopefully that makes sense.

First, define "really slow".
Then, turn slower to look ahead.
Lastly, practice more.

I want a pre-modded cube that's fast, but not too fast; a controllable speed. Also, doesn't pop a lot, and has good corner cutting. What's the best choice for me?
