And you're using the beginner algorithms. There are also more complicated intermediate and advanced algorithms that have speed cubers solving the 3x3 in less than 5 seconds. I personally never got past the beginner algorithm that came in a little booklet with my cube, but solving a cube is rather addictive. Eventually the physical part just becomes muscle memory. I misplaced my cube and it was missing for almost two years, but when I found it again I was amazed that I could still remember how to solve it without much of a struggle.
I use beginner method too There are thousands of possibilities to remember different algorithms for in the advanced and to solve for fun it’s not that intense and the pros that solve under 5 seconds that’s what they use
I’m pretty slow averaging around 30-35 seconds but the beginner method is ok but you wanna make sure it’s from J perm cuz back then I really didn’t like him because he doesn’t make things obvious and I couldn’t understand him but now I realize he is good on the explaining part
This dude is what I did, he started off with beginner method and not going onto cfop like everyone else i see do, I think this is a better choice as some algs from beginner does show up in cfop
Beginner algorithms are simple, and it impresses a lot of people for some reason, I got taught how to do it by a friend when I was in third grade and back when I used to solve them more I could do it in around 45 seconds with beginner algorithms. Even now despite forgetting which algorithms do which steps I can still fumble around and solve it in under ten minutes.
Good catch! Yeah honestly compared to the softer/rubbery cases these things aren’t very comfortable, but at the same time the build quality is fantastic. Trade offs I guess!
I can solve under a minute if u want advice Edit:1 Practice the right and left hand move over and over until u do it really fast then get a non stiff cube for extra speed (optional)
As a speed cuber, 3-4 mins is really good for a first timer who learned in one day, you're a quick learner bro, it took me a month to practice and my first solve was 1 minute and 31 seconds, but it took me a month to learn so I'm not really a quick learner, but you? You're a really quick learner, proud of you.
The first time I solved it I was very happy, now if you keep practicing within around a year and a bit you just might be able to solve it in under 10 seconds
As a cuber u can also learn advance solving method i use the method called cfop and there are so many speed solving methods such as Roux or ZZ so you can even atleast sopve under a min 😊 (Advised)
As a somewhat pro cuber, congrats 🎉 My method is CFOP It means 1. Solve a white cross 2. Solve the first two layers 3. Solve the yellow side with one of 50+ algs 4. Solve the rest with one of 21 algs
I been solving rubik cubes for the longest I can recall. If you want something fun or challenging to learn after figuring out that 3x3. Try a ghost cube or a mirror cube. It'll throw you off initially
I'm a product of the 80s my life goal is to solve the rubick cube .I'm old enough to remember the cube with stickers on it . It's a mental block ! Thank you RU-vid
One tip is the first few times do it with the tutorial and then starting memorizing parts one by one. This is what got me to solving one in under 3 minutes and I started only 12 hours ago
Thank you. Perfect explanation. Plain and on point. Thats what content is all about. Helping people or helping them by entertaining them. You did both :)
I have a book sold in toy stores in the 1970s my grandma gave me its pretty cool its how i learned. Its ass backwards from how speed cubers do it but it has me under 2 mins
As a cuber who loves ur vids. Im proud of u well done man.btw the happiness lvls u achieve when solving it first time are so high. U should get into cubing its my fav hobby
That is all it takes, I learned the Dan Brown method. But forgot some of the algorithms, so have now decided to start learning CFOP, I know it will take a while to get. But my son has done it and he’s already down to about a 40 second solve and thinks he can get to 30 seconds or less soon by learning some new algorithms.
