The Speedcube Switch

[Cubewarrior]

Ok, so im currently using a sucky unlubed rubiks brand cube and averaging 35 seconds. im getting a guhong soon. how much faster should i expect to be?

 

[waffle=ijm]

not a lot.
it's the cuber not the cube.

Maybe 5-6 seconds at most. The cube really doesnt help speed. It depends on how much you know already.

-3 Seconds, I think you will get slower, since the GuHong will seem too fast and uncontrollable, once you get used to it, probably drop about 3 seconds off your current average.

i know full fridrich method but i get these annoying locks during f2l

 

[cuberkid10]

Full everything? (Oll, pll)

 

[Cubewarrior]

Your luck there are good cubes when I assume you recently started. When I started I had to use a cube4you for like 6 months!

 

[cuberkid10]

Well, if you know all that + practice, your times could drop drastically.

sub 20?

just 3 or 4 sounds like a lot to me.

sub 20?

Maybe not right away, but at your pace, you should be able to do it pretty easily

Those cubes are like the exact opposite so I think that you can do much better about maybe 5-10 seconds depending on how you execute f2l and ll (LOOKAHEAD)!!!!
