CubeHead - love your videos - I am a 50 something cuber - first learned the cube (ahem) 40 years ago and still have that cube - picked it up a couple of months ago and well I seem to be hooked again - I have been using your tutorials (and J Perms) to get some speed (cross, F2L, 2 look OLL, 2 look PLL) - my best time is a flat 1min but mostly I am @-@ (way off the pace I know) and with using CS timer with four splits I can see the F2L is my weakness - to improve I am trying to not rotate and solve the back slots - your tip about rotating the right way is such a great tip I hope through all this I can get sub-minute (that would be cool)!

Thanks you too

[@shaunzhang733]

If you solved the cross, and there's also one corner solved at the front left or the front right that you only need to insert the edge to make it your first F2L pair, you can move the solved corner to the back, insert the edge to the front and do a wide U or wide U' move to align the F2L. Or you may want to use wide U move to move the unsolved edge to the back, solve the edge, then move the already solved corner to the back using D or D'.
