Why don't my fangshi's centre caps go on?

1. Your cube is too loose and the screws are sticking out
or
2. You aren't applying enough force

I've already search the website of each available store in Arizona seems none of them carries gen 3 stackmat.
To those who already tried to order on speedstacks online how much is the usual shipping fee(Within US only)? I can't order beyond $50 so it automatically cant qualify for the free shipping.

Just make an account on their website and try ordering it. I don't think the shipping will be over $30.

Ok, so I've been speedcubing for about 6 months now and I average around 20 seconds on the 3x3. Is it possible to get my times down to sub 15 seconds average by the end of this summer? If so, what do you suggest I do to practice? I use CFOP and know all of the PLLS, but only 15 or so OLLS. My F2L time is around 15 seconds. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Yes, but it's slightly far fetched. Keep looking ahead, don't look at the current pieces you're solving. OLL algs are not really important. Never turn faster than you can lookahead.

Full oll will make you 50% closer to your goal, so I´d say go for that, look ahead and perhaps some new f2l-tricks

Probably not if the recognition time is high.

Your F2L time is too high... I average around the same as you and my f2l is roughly 6-8 seconds (2 step OLL and only some PLL (2 look half the time)

Full PLL and full OLL what does it mean?

Does it mean they know full OLL/PLL cases (all of the algs to solve any case that appears) or does it mean they are using full basic method solve cross then orient corners/find head lights, make full side then solve? I never understood. I see people saying it in some videos like you can be a sub 20, then they say in the video I'm using full OLL/PLL. Thanks in advanced!

First one.

 

[Bruce6335]

I know what PLL (permutation of last layer) and OLL (orientation of last layer) are. I use Fridrich method, starting to learn advanced F2L. I just don't understand full OLL and full PLL. I'm not trolling, just that it my brain it could mean two things.

 

[Wassili]

Full OLL/PLL just means that you have memorized all 75 algorithms.

Thanks!

Top guys changing OLLs & PLLs?

Guys, how often do the top guys like Feliks and Mats change their 3x3 OLLs and PLLs? Do they stick with the OLLs/PLLs they set records with or do they experiment with different one's often?

I'm not exactly top, but I change PLLs and OLLs when I realize that a case isn't as efficient as I thought it was. Then, I'll ask my friends what algs they use for the case; if their case is better, I'll learn it.

I ordered some items from speedcubeshop on Saturday. Since they are changing their payment services, will my order be delayed until its finished?

On zcube.cn is the shengshou 4x4 a v5 or a v4?

O hai, I just realized my ios device doesn't have any cubing timer installed, so, what timer (plus scrambles, obviously) apps should I try/use?

Chao Timer has unlimited Nameable sessions, so I like it. People say iitimer is good too but I've never used it.

I like ChronoPuzzle.
