What cube works well for "aggressive turners"?

[Cuber07]

I currently main the GAN 356 M, but recently have found myself corner twisting it accidently during solves, and occasionally it pops as well. It seems my turns have become more aggressive, and this is the result. Can anyone recommend a good magnetic cube that works well for a more aggressive turning style?

Another query I had was: Does being tired affect your cubing times? Last week I was averaging 20-25 secs, but now I'm averaging 25-30. I'm wondering if not getting enough sleep could cause this, because that would probably explain it. HAs anyone else experienced this before?

being tired 100% affects your times directly.
as far as cubes for meaner turnstyles, ive heard that the Tornado v(2?) is a good choice, although ive never owned one

Query 1: I would recommend GAN 12 Maglev, but it is very expensive. Other than that, probably some Weilong or the other.

Query 2: Being tired affects my fingers and how fast I can turn, but it doesn't affect my solutions much. I do get about 5 seconds slower, if I'm really tired.

Sleep does affect your times in cubing, I find myself averaging a good bit worse than my global on less sleep. As far as cubes go, I would recommend a Tornado v2 or v3, I used to main the v3 when my turning style was considerably more aggressive. As far as things to avoid, I would avoid a gan cube, as these can be incredibly locky with aggressive turning. I would say that most Moyu cubes are a mixture of the two, and they may be good options as well.

Okay, thank you very much.

I can't seem to find the Tornado V2 cube, but I found the V3: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Taolele-To...8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1

What type would people recommend? There's the Flagship, Pioneer, Standard and UV version.
I'm fairly new to cubing, so I'm not sure what the differences are in those 4 cubes.

RS3M V5. Short answer. I'm an extremely agressive turner so trust me

Yeah, I think the v2 got discontinued.

The standard is a normal cube with magnets, the flaghsip has a magnetic core, which helps with stability, the pioneer has maglev instead of springs which makes it faster, and the UV is just a grippy coating on the cube. Most people think the flagship is the best, as many think the pioneer is too fast.

i find myself being forced to turn lightly on my v5 while my ys3m can take really rough turning

 

[Cuber07]

What difference does Ball Core and Magnetic Dual Adjustment make?

 

[artless1der]

I have found that the new
Dayan GuHong Pro M (mine is the 55mm)
resists corner twisting (when I tried to ) more than pretty much any other 3×3 I've had

and it's core magnetic + maglev with really nice quick turning for only $20 at TC

the core-to-corner magnetization makes it more stable and a bit less prone to overshooting

 

[UncleFrank]

Stop saying your turning style is rough or aggressive.
It's not.
It's just inaccurate.

 

[randomness...]

i do agree that there is no "agressive", in the sense of over cornercutting, but there is a style of flick turn that is very agressive, as far as not tracing with your fingers.

 

[Curunír]

The Ys3m has good corner cutting and slice moves which is why I use it for 3BLD
I think that you would find it nice for your turning style rather than something like a tornado (which is what I use for C-fop)
I've also found that the Ys3m doesn't corner twist that much either

 

[Bingus Ringus McDingus]

I like the YS3M BC UV and the WRM V9 UV for rough, inaccurate turning styles. This link shows a good place to get them, help out a fellow speedsolving member.

 

[OreKehStrah]

Really, you should fix your turning so it’s not a problem down the road. Be an accurate light turner

 

[edward_9x]

being less aggressive

 

[qwr]

if you avg 20-30 sec you shouldn't be turning aggressively but focusing on better solutions

FYI: if you disassemble the cube,
you can see 2 little tabs in skits on the under-side of each of the centers...
yiu can use a small flathead screwdriver to push these 2 tabs up you can pop the tile out of each center...
and then you can loosen the (very tight) screw for each center ♪⁠┌⁠|⁠∵⁠|⁠┘⁠♪
... mine is probably as loose as Max's Tornado v3
