Attempting to Solve the "MAPLE LEAF SKEWB" (With NO Help)

I don't know if anyone is going to agree with me, but I personally really love this kind of videos. They show us your thought process and how you manage to solve this unusual puzzles with all the cubing knowledge you have, without even looking for help (because you're the Skewb specialist obviously). P.S: Could you try solving the Ghost cube in the future without any help?

I love how, two years ago, I learned how to solve a 3x3 from JPerm's video, and from there I got not as much interested in speed solving but more interested in finding and figuring out weird puzzles on my own, and now that JPerm has gotten the weird puzzle bug I get to watch him try and solve stuff I solved a year ago and root for him to figure it out. I wanna see you take on the Rua next :)

[@devanshchopra2959]

Im curious, so did u solve these the same way jperm did or were your solutions different than his?

[@CatherineKimport]

@@devanshchopra2959 The method he eventually figured out for Polaris Cube was basically the same as the one I figured out. But for the Maple Leaf Skewb I had a different method (I did the inner edges first and then used 3-cycles to get the petals in place, instead of trying to build the entire diamond at the same time)

[@beckruns]

This series is the best! My favorite one was the “Attempting to Solve the Puppet Cube” for sure!

[@Multicubing]

This kept me thinking! Well done! And as soon as I saw the flipped corner, I figured it was just reassembled wrong. That’s fine in my book!

[@silly_gooses2568]

I love watching your videos, your voice is very calming, lol, I solved my first cube a few days ago while watching your video and now have a pb of 59.04 seconds. I'm now learning f2l and your old f2l videos have definitely helped me learn.

[@sommeone]

Great video! That was a lot of fun to watch! One thing I noticed because of my experience with other edge-turning puzzles: the case at 14:24 can be solved intuitively because you can rotate skewb centers 90° relative to each other. How I would do it is hide the 2 orange Leafs in the hole on the orange side, then re-insert them across from the edge piece (in other words, move them from the edge of the center closer to the bottom left of the screen to the edge of the center closer to the bottom right of the screen. You could then use the "pocket" on the orange side to move each edge into place relative to the edge, then insert that completed set into the pocket to solve the centers! (If that explanation doesn't make sense, and you're curious about what I mean, just let me know and I'll find a way to send you some doodles that explain it better than I can with words) If you're looking for a new puzzle to do a video on, I'd highly recommend the Curvy Copter!!! It applies some similar logic to this puzzle and I think it's a ton of fun to figure it out! (I design puzzles and really want to talk about how combined mechs like this one skew the difficulty curve of a puzzle relative to experience in weird ways but I'm already rambling enough in this comment... Let me know if you want to hear my thoughts on that I guess?) If you do a video on the curvy copter I'd highly recommend watching the first 1 minute and 25 seconds of RedKB's "Jumbling tutorial for Curvy Copter and Helicopter Cube" to see how to a specific move you need in order to fully scramble the puzzle (which isn't super obvious by just turning it normally.) Also, the puzzle can shapeshift, but that also bandages the puzzle so save that for the end of the scramble. You can ignore the video and avoid partial-turns for your first solve if you want to, though. And again, this was a super cool video to watch! I'm a reasonably strong intuitive solver, but I'm not as good at making/finding algs, so it was really cool when you noticed that you did a 3-cycle! These videos are really making me want to pick up some weird new puzzles and try solving them! I haven't done that (with puzzles I didn't help design) in years!

[@awesomegaming69]

Hey Jperm, I really wanted to thank you. I never knew how to solve a cube or wanted to use one, but after I watched your videos, I had the ambition to become a speed cuber. Because of you, now I have a hobby and a community of people who share my passion! I can’t thank you enough!

Hey Dylan, been a fan for about 2 years now. I started watching you when you reduced the 4x4 to a 2x2 and that video was only a couple days old; and just recently decided to create a yt channel. You inspired me to start cubing and now I have (about) a 23 second average.

"This is literally impossible": 21:00 I actually thought this cube had parity for a second lol

[@michaelm6334]

I rewatched it and he did put the corner back on incorrectly

[@CuberChess]

I've had the maple leaf skewb for a while and I couldn't do it because every time 2 pieces were wrong, but because I used your strategy it suddenly worked thanks a lot!

[@firechant1337]

I've really been enjoying all these weird cube challenges, they're very fun to watch! This channel inspired me to buy my first new rubik's cube since 2009! Random video idea: I'd love a video explaining the internals of the various cubes! (3x3s, skewbs, pyraminxes, 10x10s...) It would be a fun way for me to learn about the internals of weirder cubes I don't own, and potentially I could show my family who keep asking how the 3x3 works. :)

[@wilebaldoalvarez]

Thank you for the type of cycle of changing 3 petals, it helped me to understand how to finish it, I finished it 2 times before but it was an accident to move them a lot. The only for me the first and second steps are to make the 4 petals on one side of the same color and the 4 triangles of the same color on another side and then putting them all together is simple.

Hey Jperm! I have a new fun challange for you: You solve the cube normal, but do 1 turn per second (or half second what ever you want to do, anything but you have to repeat it till you solve the cube) and every turn has to be usefull for example when you dont know what to do, you cant just repeat a idk u turn till you found the next thing to do. The hard part is that you have to figure out the oll for example in the time you chosed! If you can do it with 1 sec just make it harder by lowering the time! Have fun!!

One of those circular prices can also easily swap the peddles so if there is a one where the peddle is wrong you can take the right peddle and swap it so it’s like go around the cube take the right triple pieces and one shot place it in the right area so for one side you need the correct color of a edge and a peddle the other peddle will remain wrong so the next one you do the same thing until you go to the last side edge and two peddles of that color and you put a one where all of them have the right colours
