Kingdk236: I added the woajest meme, that they didn't include.

[[File:iminnebraska.jpg|thumb|right|The current Cyoubx's Friends banner]]
'''Cyoubx's Friends''', often abbreviated to '''CF''', is a Facebook group with over 6,700 members (as of 16 Jul 2017) about Rubik's cubes and similar puzzles. The group has also been responsible for creating many [[cubing memes]] including "#ripcf," "Discuss," "Time for a Bingo," "I'm in Nebraska," and "Woaj."

== History ==
Cyoubx's Friends was created on March 31, 2012 as a small group for [[Albert You]] and his friends to communicate. However, over time it has become far larger and more popular and is now one of the most well known cubing groups with nearly every popular cuber now being a member of it.

'''Feliks Zemdegs''' is an [[Australia]]n speedcuber from Melbourne, Australia. He is the current world record holder for 3x3 average (6.45), 4x4 single (21.54), 5x5 single and average (46.97 and 50.15), 3x3 OH single (6.88), 6x6 average (1:43.83), and 7x7 single and average (2:23.55 and 2:30.14). He is widely considered to be the most successful competitive cuber in history.

In the beginning, he sped up on the 3x3 Rubik's cube swiftly. By about 4 months in, he achieved sub-20 averages.

Feliks is often joked about for being outstandingly well with [[3x3 with feet]], although he has never officially done a foot solve.

He is currently sponsored by [[Gans]] and [http://www.speedcube.com.au SpeedCube.com.au]

== Style ==
Feliks is a color-neutral CFOP user. His meteoric rise in 2009, together with [[Rowe Hessler]]'s earlier success, were the catalysts for the current popularity of [[Color neutrality]] in 3x3 speedsolving.
