A speedcubing website/blog focused on all things Rubik's Cube related
While it may seem like significant cube stores like Speedcubeshop, and TheCubicle just sell WCA and other twisty puzzles, there are some hidden gems and accessories amongst the wide selection of cubes that are well worth the $2 - $15 that they are.
The Rubik’s Cube has always been popular but now, due to many factors, the activity of speedcubing has also gained a lot of attention. Does this mean that there will be more competition? Will we see new events added? Will Rubik’s Cube become an Olympic event? Anything can happen. But why exactly has speedcubing become so popular in the last few years?
After learning 2-look OLL and PLL, it’s obvious that full OLL and PLL are the next steps. But what about after that? Winter Variation, Summer Variation, VLS, ZBLS, COLL, and OLLCP are all algorithm sets for last layer. Don’t worry if you haven’t heard of any of these before because this article covers which ones you should learn, and which ones you should ignore.
For some, practicing comes naturally, but for others, it can be difficult because of many reasons, like lack of time, or lack of a structured schedule or practice plan. However, don’t worry because this article has great practice guides for cubers with different amounts of time available per day.
Have you ever got a fast time and felt like you were the fastest cuber alive, then remember that the world record is 3.47 seconds. For me, this can be slightly discouraging because the level at which top cubers solve are at feels impossibly far. But to figure out exactly why, I’ve broken down the practice habits, solving techniques, and even some less commonly known tricks that you can use to instantly improve your solves.
At some point, you’re going to get good enough that you feel like you are ready to take your cubing journey to the next level. That's where cubing competitions come in. Cubing competitions are a way for you to see how you fare against the rest of the community and meet with other cubers just like you. This article includes important information and things to know before you participate in your first competition...
Full f2l is a huge algorithm subset that includes algorithms to solve the first two layers (hence the name f2l). However, learning all 41 algorithms can be quite the task and it can be more of a time save to start with just learning the important ones. This article covers the best and most efficient f2l algorithms to learn.
Cubing is just something that never gets old. But, there's more to cubing than just… Well, cubes. There are many interesting puzzles besides the basic NxN. This article covers some of the coolest, most interesting, and most challenging twisty puzzles.
Becoming faster with your solves is not always just practice, while it can be helpful to practice, improving can be sped up by learning new things. This article covers the best algorithms and methods to learn to make your solves faster.
The Rubiks Cube is not only popular but is mathematically and physically interesting too. People have marveled at the combinations and designs of the cube. This article is going to cover some of the most interesting and important facts about the Rubik's Cube.
The Rubiks Cube; One of the most popular toy and puzzle in history, has a fascinating history. In fact, it took the man who invented it, Erno Rubik over a month to solve his own creation. This article is about the fascinating history behind the Magic Cube?
Averaging less than thirty seconds is a huge achievement for any cuber. For some, it takes just a few months, and for some, it can take upwards of a year. Regardless of who you are, this article provides useful tips, and what skills you need to average sub-thirty.
