LAST LAYER SKIP?!!??!

Picked up my cube for the first time in YONKS! My record before this was 13.38s but I average 20ish. I don't think I'm beating this for years.

How rare actually is a Last Layer Skip

Sub 12💀

Oh my damn god this was the most painful thing I have ever done.

I was not gonna practice 3x3 until I realized for some reason before doing a solve if I relax and take a deep breath and slowing my heart beat improves "look ahead". It doesn't really improve anything else but maybe my eyes are relaxed? I don't know if this is scientifically proven but it improved for me at least.

So I locked the f*ck in for a whole 6 god damn hours and just barely managed to get sub 12 ao1000

Also finally got a sub 7 single in the process and got 2 sub 10 ao5 too(also my pb ao5 is 9.71 but it got deleted somehow while moving it from my phone to my ipad but at least I still have a sub 10 ao5 on the screenshot😁)

This took way too long and my entire body and fingers are aching from sitting and cubing too long💀

Xuanyi Geng’s WR POV - 3D Animation

I’ve attempted to recreate the staggering new 2.51 WR from Xuanyi Geng’s perspective. I hope you enjoy! It’s the closest I’ll ever come to moving this fast :D

F2L Insert

With blue front, the insert I use for this case is R’ F’ U’ F R. Is this a good insert for this case in the back or would it be more beneficial to use something else.

Stained glass rubik’s cube lamp

I made this for my cube-obsessed partner by scrambling one of his cubes and copying the pattern!

Help finding and naming pattern

Hey guys, please help me out with identifying and reproducing a pattern.

I tried to deconstruct and undo a few times, but i couldn't see the path to making the pattern.

In the video I tried to show off, lost my anchor, and now i really can't find my way back.

Ive come across so many new finds, but I always get lost, or forget, I didn't want to let that happen again, especially since I liked it so much.

Have a great day.

Who are the biggest 2x2 solvers right now

So I come from a foreign time of JRCuber, CrazyBadCuber, DGcubing, and DerpyCuber. Aka, its been a minute. Ive got a goal i want to achieve. This year im spending learning full OLL, COLL, CLL, EG-1, and EG-2. There is a next step to this, but i want to reach out to the bigger 2x2 creators with my idea, and thus I won't be sharing it here, but basically I want to discover the next step in solving the 2x2, and sadly, all of my creators have grown past and moved on to bigger and better things, so I figure id come here for insites?

How close to minimum moves for cross do you usually get?

I'm at around sub-23 (pb of 16), and after a previous solve critique have been working on my cross diligently, including both solve efficiency and memorizing moves before starting.

I know that the average number of moves needed for single-color is 5.81 and that while 8 is the max, very very few solves need that many. I haven't calculated my average, but I think I'm probably closer to 6.5 or 7 and get 8 fairly often (though, i almost never have to go over).

Curious whether cubers at my level actually get to the maximum.

First iOS FTO timer!

TLDR: Acubemy.

Note: I am not sponsored, just passionate

I’ve been looking for an iOS FTO timer for a while now, as android has many such as twisty timer, but none (to my knowledge) had fto support. Obviously you could add CsTimer to your home screen from a browser and it essentially functions the same, but its UI isn’t ideal for phone screens.

That was until I checked the Acubemy update logs, as i was waiting for 2x2 smartcube support, when i realised they had added scrambles for all wca events and FTO! Of course the app is primarily designed around 3x3 smartcube solving, so while it’s not the main priority, the UI and functionality is still perfect if you want to use it for exclusively FTO. Just thought i’d share the news, because I would assume that as it gets closer to being a wca event, more people would want an app for their solving needs.

(Yes i know my 34 shown isn’t the best, it was just the first solve - I average around 29-31)

How should I set up these puzzles?

- MoYu RS Maglev Skewb

- DaYan FTO

- YJ MGC Sq-1 V2

I haven't been satisfied with my set ups for these cubes, and I was wondering what ways I should set them up.
