What Color Cross Do You Solve and Why?

[ThomasJE]

I originally used a green cross because that's how the beginner's instructions taught me, but I decided to switch to white because the majority of other cubers used white crosses.

I am color neutral because I enjoy taking advantage of easy crosses that allow more insight during inspection. I started with green though and still seem to have slightly better recognition with a green cross.

Colour neutral

 

[PandaCuber]

I dont start with a cross.

 

[mwcuber98]

Color neutral; but by choice, green. No particular reason.

Oh I'm colour neutral because when I learnt it from Pogobat (Dan Brown) in his tips he said to always look for the easiest cross to complete. I followed that tip and I'm happy to be colour neutral.

When using CFOP I work best with either White or Yellow (no bias between them) cross because those are the blocks I simply picked right from the beginning.

Wow, I'm surprised that there are so many color neutral people. I learned solving the cross on white, but meanwhile I solve on yellow at least as good as on white [correct english?]. I also can do it in blue but I'm ~5 seconds slower than on white/yellow.

I started with blue because it is my favorite colour and afterward I started doing blue and green.

 

[LarryLunchmeat]

started on green, but just started with white since it's slightly easier to spot.
I got a white V-cube 5 a few months ago and although i love the cube, i cannot for the life of me get used to black stickers.

Full CN.

Green. Favorite Color.

Learning color neutral though.

Black and yellow. Black because I learned F2L from LanceTBK, I used to be CN. Thanks Lance. Yellow aswell because I got used to it really quickly at about 25 sec average (I think someone posted a video in the race to sub 20 thread and a bunch of people said it was good to see them do a few solves on yellow).

I don't solve with a cross

 

[pgrules99]

Color nuteral.

Green. Because it's was first that came to mind when I decided to start doing same color cross everytime (quite early on in my learning process). Thinking about going color neutral at some point, but probably not yet. (Gonna try to get my sub 1min first.)

I solve my cube with a white cross too, for me its the easiest color to recognize when doing F2l. I've tried changing it up and solving it on a different side but my times get slower so I stick with white. Although training your eye to solve it with great speed on each side is more beneficial in a competition, and this is also how Feliks solves a cube.

The sooner you transition, the better. Apparently...

I stared with white cross for the first month. Then found this site and all of the suggestions of being CN. I'm glad I started early with it because I think I would have a problem switching now. I get very set in my ways.
