Nice! i have been cubing for quite long but I never actually bothered to try F2L. I do the 1st half of the beginner's method then do PLL and OLL. I average around 45s.

Nice job again.

Pretty impressive man. I've never been able to get more than like 1 1/2 sides fixed, not a very good cuber

Is that the OLL/PLL method? I've been wanting to learn it. Know any good places where I'd be able to?

Excellent work, by the way.

can you please reccomend a good place to learn a more advanced method? I've been solving for a few months but still only use a begginners method due to lack of teaching resources ive been able to find.

Same here. I mean, I taught myself (without realizing it) the F2L method, but other than that, its pretty beginner.

I'm also wondering, in the video you don't turn the cube over to look at the bottom. Is this just out of practice that you don't need to look?

Hey! Sorry it took me so long to respond.

There are lots of good places to learn. Here are my recommendations.

http://badmephisto.com/ : Has a great website, easy to understand, Badmephitso has lots of youtube videos for beginners and also advanced people. You can download pdf's of F2L, Oll, and Pll's. Or a PDF of the entire Fridrich method. He also has a good notation guide on his PDF.

http://www.speedcubing101.com/index.html : Very simple website for Pll and OLL.

http://blueknightcubing.com/ : Another good resource!

HOPE that helps!

Ive been solving the cube for about 8 years now. So yes. When i started i was super slow. 1:40.. Over time i got faster and i was around 30 seconds. Over the last 9 months i have been cubing hardcore! So yeah its been a lot of practice.
