what kind of cube are u referring to?

you can buy it Toy R Us One utama ,KLcc.midvalley ,subang parade.for Rm 34.90

if you wanna buy 444 or 555 you can buy it at ActionCity @ OneUtama for 49.90 and 59.90?(cant remember price for 555)

5x5x5 is rm70 i think? 69.90 ga? lol XD

chinese DIY can set the tension either you want it loose or tight its you choice.

while rubiks storebought(rubiks at toy r us) the tension vary from cube to cube and you cannot adjust the tension of it,at most of the time you get it quite stiff but if your lucky you get a good loose one .Its like cherry picking.

but if you would like to buy the chinese Diy i recommend Type C. Type C its actually replica of rubiks DIY the Rm 84.90 at toy r Us. It use the same mold as rubiks Diy 2006?or was it 2007( i forgot which year , but they say the best rubiks DIY batch was the 2006 mold, idontknow never got one for myself)

but most online cubers recommend old type A... they said that is the best cube ever.. even better than type C or rubik's diy..not sure about it..that is just what everyone says in forum.. but more to personal preference I guess..

i like the one zzzonked got for me. not sure what type is it. i think type a is really really light =.=

yea i guess so.
type A cut corners well but pop o so damn much.once i was solving it was doing the Z perm it all when smooth untill M2 U M2 U M U2 M2 U2[ M U2] sent the whole damn LL flying .well it wasnt all 2 edge piece and corner piece.

the old type D i heard was insane.the old core and screws. they said is on par with type A and it doesnt pop as much as type A

the new one. sucks max if you have the new screw .it will make you decapitated yourself.
DEE JA VOO (from speedsloving ) found away to make the screw intact anyone tried?

Loctide? Which is pretty expensive...

But I am trying a type A + D hybrid...if the screws really suk, would try if the japanese speedcube's screw able to fit it or not..

i tried. it the same result as the new type D screws. but i was lucky have couple of spare of old type D screw



made a couple of hybird out it.

is it the new or old type-D screw in ur pic?

its the old one. here i show a comparison




the old screw head is bit thicker so it fit the core nicely while then new one is thinner + the new core (black ,the old one was transparent-ish white)it tend to drill inside the core making the hole bigger. .Making it loose averytime you solved it.

some of the cubes (1st bulk) was with old screw. ONLY the white cube has the new screw. Weird enough.

guess the white cube is high demanded..so they put low quality screws instead... zzz?

should gotten myself My type As and Ds black. since white cube arent alllow to cube in competition? i cant remember , its quite vague since i red WCA regulation long time ago.

bro...how u accomplish f2l below 30s? so hard to achieve it

just the F2l? or the whole cube solve?
have you seen any video F2l video yet? petrus ,fridrich?


if havent here are some awesome tutorials.

Badmephisto F2l tutorial

i learnt Fridrich F2l from the video. Took me while to get F2L sub -20
F2l you just need to practice practice practice alot. Improve your look ahead
while inserting F2l pair track other corner and edge piece that need to pair up.It might be slow at first but, the more you practice you get comfortable with it. the more easier to spot the next F2l pair.

just f2l...i learnt jessica fridrich method already....to get cross take me 10-15s...finishing f2l about 25-30s...yeah...how to spot next f2l pair easily? u spot the edge or corner first?
