Could do it faster if you had a better cube and if it was lubed

[@joelweidenmark]

I don't think it's a big deal when you're doing a 2 min solve. It's most likely not the turning that is slowing you down the most, but the thought process.

[@nwimpney]

When learning, I don't think the time to turn them is all that large compared to the time looking and figuring out what to do. As Mike says in the video, the trick to being fast is to learn some patterns and algorithms to solve the first two layers more quickly. After that, the algorithms don't take too long. Also, judging by how he's flicking it with his fingers this isn't at all like the super stiff old cubes. I noticed last time a saw one at the store, that they had changed considerably since last time I bought a rubik's brand.

[@jacksongibbons9017]

Learning with f2l is actually quite uncommon in beginner speedcubers, most people either can't find good enough tutorials or can't get their head around the intuitive aspect straight away. You certainly did quite well learning to use it that quickly.

Im a cuber im speedcubing for 1 year already! Cool that you learned how to solve a 3x3. That method what you learned is called CFOP (Cross, First 2 layers, OLL, PLL) Thats the best method ever but as a begginer you better needed to learn the Layer by layer method or others call it Begginers method with that method you would be able to learn the rubiks cube in more than a hour, but you were trying to be faster so that was a smart choice to learn advanced method first!

[@emeryshurpit8656]

You cant say that CFOP is the best... just because its the 1 method that everyone uses doesnt mean its the best. Take the Octane from Rocket League, a shit ton of pros use it, yet it cant be called the best car.

[@Superficialt]

Yeah, this is a fair comment. I was inspired by Mike's video to give it a go, having never tried to solve a Rubik's cube before. I ordered a cube, it arrived yesterday. I watched the video below and just got my first sub-2 minute solve. It took probably 2 hours of practice, if that. I can see that it would be harder to go much faster (there seem to be a lot of inefficient moves), so I may learn some other methods to complement this, but I was surprised how easy it was.

+herrreinsch thanks for the comment inspiring me to make this video! You got a link for 2x sune technique?

[@herrreinsch]

No, I just figured it out by myself. If you know sune and antisune (or sune with the left hand) you can try around until one corner is oriented, and then remember that position. And with 2x sune I mean: sune rotate, and another sune, so basically 3 lock oll. I did that before learning 2 lock. And before that I just guesst, like: sune, no, rotate, sune, no, rotate.. until 1 corner was oriented. :) But 2 look oll is better anyways. I've been speedcubing for 2 years now, and I'm around 14-15 seconds average. Yep, speedcubing is quite fun, and very addicting. :) And if you look for tutorials, I suggest crazybadcubers F2L(really easy to follow), and paradox cubing tutorials. And badmephisto's tutorials are also old but gold.(feliks learnt from them). So, i think that was a little bit to long now, but whatever. thanks for reading.

[@guasquad284]

He learned CFOP first?! I didn’t learn CFOP until I averaged 40 seconds! Good job 👏 👍

[@luciaa8582]

what do you mean which one did you use

[@guasquad284]

I used beginners method then learned cfop afterwards

There are so 43 quadrillion permutations in a Rubik's cube. People: Oh man thats a lot. Meanwhile the atoms of the universe: hold my beer

[@thomasrhodes4327]

There is actually 4096 possible combinations of a solved Rubik’s cube, not 1, as the centre pieces can all rotate 4 different ways. So 4x4x4x4x4x4=4096. I discovered this after solving a cube with peoples face’s on each of the 6 sides, and on that cube the centre pieces have to be rotated correctly, this is way harder than a standard Rubik’s cube. Love this video! 🙂

[@goferboy2374]

Unless it’s a picture cube, the centerpiece orientation don’t matter

[@isuggest_clorox2459]

Chuck Norris just looks at the cube and it solves it self

6 months since i first saw this Mike introduced to me what would be a passionate hobby of mine 6 months later: i can now solve it under 20 seconds

[@at706145]

Your videos inspired me. This summer solved the Rubik’s cube, next is the carver/surfskates board riding, next... 🤘

[@Fadilanse]

I just love seeing cuber reaction after they achieve their goal, you're so excited that I feel so excited for you too. :)

[@WesleyNysm]

How did you memorize/practice the algorithms?

[@Mmjacksom]

Wesley Or Nysm all you do is repeat them over and over again. I learned full pll and most of oll 1 algorithm at a time. It only takes a few minutes of practicing 1 algorithm to memorize it

[@liad4909]

Wesley Or Nysm Honestly with practice it becomes intuitive like I can recognize a pattern for a algorithm so fast and you just move the cube you don't think of the actual algorithm you just do it. I am not sure how to put it in specific words. When I first started I would try an algorithm from a finished cube solve it from there so I don't have to do f2l and the cross.

[@larsnap1786]

Nysm the thing that really helped me to recognize the algorithims was that i peeled all of the stickers off my first rubiks cube and i would do the algorithim over and over again so it will get in your muscle memory

[@AwesomeMinecraftG]

Risumies yes it is. You dont think about what the algorithm is you just do it without thinking atleast from experience

[@akuseru2116]

nah, it only takes a few minutes to get an algorithm down in your muscle memory

He was RISKY solving that on the sand!

[@Yukihana-]

I learned how to solve a cube in 1:24 in one day. Thanks J Perm!

[@mattforster7509]

I think he should do all the skills he's learned again just to see if he remembers them Idk I thought it just be funny

This is ironic

0:23 I lost concentration on Mike when the cat paw came into view.

[@Wi11i4mJM]

Well done! That's great for 16 hours. Don't know how long I took. Memorised the algorithms from a KZbin video. I was doing it with a Rubik's brand one and got a MoYu one, timed my 3rd go with it and got 1:42.

[@DownloadingKasper]

3:58 i love that eyebrow thing

[@partycrasher1366]

I did this In one day. I also used a another method, and my brother who can do this in 17 sec helped me ALOT. But that’s proof that anyone can learn! Also so GREAT video! Hope y’all having a great day :D

[@DreamShakeOfficial]

Thank you very much!

[@RedJonathon719]

You really need to learn the beginners method if you are a beginner, first of all, CFOP requires more than 70 algs while beginner only really requires like 5

[@RedJonathon719]

+ateb3 you sure?

[@liad4909]

(:Turretshooter500:) If you use 2look oll and pll you can get it down solving oll and pll in two moves its alot less algorithms

[@violethill4454]

I use 2 Look OLL as a beginner :P

[@ResanChea]

to be honest if youre starting out just to be able to solve a cube, you should use the beginner's method cuz its simple, but if your goal is to solve the cube in a fast time, then dont bother learning beginner's method cuz it took me like a week to convert from beginner method to CFOP

[@ashfaqahmed4850]

I don't know what you guys are talking about

[@raven1922]

dem mike went in straight to CFOP

[@snowowlforlife464]

Finally something I can solve that you can

What about the cup stack thing

Any cubers watching? (Fun Fact: When I typed this, “cubers” autocorrected to “Zuckerberg”, 🤔)

[@mydoez9862]

2:53 I can just tell that sand is gonna get in the cube

[@vinishoos9190]

Mr Squidward Tentacles I mean like it’s a Rubik’s brand

[@user-uq1fq6gs3i]

Master Vinicius / Nothing is wrong with rubiks brand. People are so uneducated because nobody realises that rubiks sell original cubes but they also have their very own branch of speedcubes that not many people know about, you can still have a speed cube that is also a rubiks brand and they are pretty damn good.

[@vinishoos9190]

James Holloway I mean that the Rubik’s brand has no holes so no sand is prob gonna get in the cube You know speed cubes have those holes to make it turn faster but Rubik’s brand has no holes in the middle so there’s not really anywhere the sand can get into the cube

[@user-uq1fq6gs3i]

Master Vinicius / Yes but the rubiks speed cubes (not the original ones) have the holes

[@vinishoos9190]

James Holloway but he didn’t have a Rubik’s speed cube
