Hi, I was wondering a few days ago (after I had a 2 move cross) what everyone's favorite step skip is? This can be for any method and if it is the cross, then lucky is 3 moves or less, for 2x2x2 block it's 4 or less, and for the first Roux block it's 6 moves (I'm just ballparking these amounts).

anyway, what is your favorite step to skip (or get lucky on)? My favorite is the cross :)


P.S. - Yes I realize this is poorly phrased, please bare with me :P

P.P.S. - Please be serious with your responses, no "F3L skips", or anything else that has a 1/43252003274489856000 chance of happening. A double x-cross or an LL skip is realistic. Also no "all edge" skips please, thanks :)

P.P.P.S - Any kind of skip except the one's stated above, on ANY SIZE cube.

A whole entire cube skip!! :D

Nah, it's PLL skip.
wonder will there be an official scramble that gives a whole cube skip in the future? :p WR Single 0.00 secs ! Broke by a 1 year old kid that average 10 days per solve.

I'm sure that some time there will be a scramble that is only a few moves away from being solved...but since everyone at the comp gets the same scramble, it just matters who can do it fastest :O

Well I am sure that will never happen. the scramler/judge would see the scramble is uber easy and would report it to the delegate/organizer, and it would be thrown out.

also, 10 days is a really good average for a 1 year old.

o yeah, and i like it when f2l pairs are already formed, but not placed.
 
my OH PB is an LL skip - but its still 22s. which means im officially crap at OH;)
i really like OLL skips, as its the slower half for me (still 3 looker sometimes). Pll skips can be a little 'shocking' but OLL skips you almost always see coming (or you engineer them...)
 
I actually really like just getting 1 f2l slot skip the best (or 1 move cross). Its probably not the fastest, but it puts me in overdrive if I see an early skip, rather than getting a skip at the end. I've never skipped a full LL but when it happens Im sure I will crap my pants in excitement.
