I stumbled upon a great site today, and it's awesome. By the way, when learning OLL & PLL, I'd like to focus on one case at a time. Can you also explain how to set the completely solved cube into a OLL case so that I can repeatedly practice it?

Sure that is easy........if you have a cube that is solved then perform algo #1 and it will equal #2, Perform Algo for #2 and it equals #2, Perform Algo #3 and it equals #4,.. ... Here is the list for you to practice

Use a solved cube and perform ...
Then we do a :
#1 and it equals # 2
# 2 = # 2................................# 30 = # 33

# 3 = # 4................................# 31 = # 40

# 4 = # 3................................# 32 = # 39

# 5 = # 8................................# 33 = # 33

# 6 = # 7................................# 34 = # 37

# 7 = # 6................................# 35 = # 37

# 8 = # 5................................# 36 = # 32

# 9 = # 13..............................# 37 = # 33

# 10 = # 8..............................# 38 = # 31

# 11 = # 15............................# 39 = # 32

# 12 = # 7..............................# 40 = # 31

# 13 = # 9..............................# 41 = # 43

# 14 = # 10............................# 42 = # 33

# 15 = # 8..............................# 43 = # 45

# 16 = # 7..............................# 44 = # 45

# 17 = # 18............................# 45 = # 44

# 18 = # 17............................# 46 = # 43

# 19 = # 17............................# 47 = # 51

# 20 = 20...............................# 48 = # 51

# 21 = 21...............................# 49 = # 54

# 22 = 22...............................# 50 = # 49

# 23 = 25...............................# 51 = # 48

# 24 = 25...............................# 52 = # 52

# 25 = 24...............................# 53 = # 53

# 26 = 27...............................# 54 = # 54

# 27 = 26...............................# 55 = # 48

# 28 = 28...............................# 56 = # 50

# 29 = 44...............................# 57 = # 28

just use the same algorithum again and again, after doing it once twice or thrice it will go to the case

Great site. Gives me something to do while I'm idle at work with this cube that was sitting on my coworker's desk.

I really like how the sections are broken down in this progressive way, so that I could learn the beginner method, then learn F2L while still finishing with the beginner method, then OLL and PLL but using the beginner method to get the cross first so that there aren't so many algorithms to memorize. Also the little mouse-over animations for each move are great. It looks like a lot of work was put into making this site really user-friendly.

Been playing for about a month now and my average is about 1m10s. Still a bit too long for people to wait if I want to show off, gotta get down to like 30-40s. The cube is such a cool toy, something to keep my hands busy if I'm stuck sitting somewhere.

For those of you who are wanting to buy a speed cube, this is the guide I consulted for speed cube buying:
http://www.rubiksplace.com/...
The Wei Long (威龙) GTS 2M, the one that was used for the current world record of 4.22s is only $15USD if you can buy it from Tao Bao – $25 if you're buying on Amazon.

GTS for the win!

quite a nice site and I love your work!!Keep going

Thanks!

Just out of curiosity: The "dot" move in the EOLL section appears as follows:

R U2 (R2' F R F') U2 (R' F R F').

But why not

R U2 R' (R' F R F') U2 (R' F R F')?

It seems like seeing this with the two sledgehammers might make more sense given your grouped-move, parenthesized notation.

definitely

Love the site! There was a new record around May 4, 4.221 seconds. <3 the site though.

I went to step 4 of beginners guide, found my case, and solved the rubik's cube WITH EASE from there! Thank you soooooo much! Excellent tutorial!

This article is amazing

Amazing site that helped me solve my rubik's cube. Thank you.

what a rubish

Screw you buddy you don't need to share your opinions to the whole world

i hate this website

fuck this website

nice site

Thanks Ayden :)

I ACCUALLY LEARNED F2L!!! I got a sub 10 I used to avg 40 sec F2L really helped, thanks!

How by learning this only

bro how do you get a sub 10 with doing begginer plus f2l did you learn oll and pll already and what cube do ou have?

Great website if you want to learn CFOP. I've watched videos and tried multiple times to learn CFOP, but it would be difficult to understand. This website is easy to understand and my time used to average about a minute and now I'm becoming quicker looking this over. Thanks for all the help!

I was looking for sites so that I could learn the cfop method but all the sites that I found looked outdated and were hard to understand. Until I saw this website. It is super easy to understand and it looked new and modern. Thank you for creating this webasite, I am still using it to learn the cfop method with 2 look oll. Also if anyone has some tips to help me remember thease algorithems, please let me know in a reply as that would be great. thanks agian to the creators of this site, there are not words to discribe how thankful I am for you guys.

tip: do the dot algorithm (R U2 (R2' F R F') U2 (R' F R F') if you have a dot. do "F R U R' U' " for a line and " f R u R' U' " for an arrow (have it facing towards you as aposed to away from you) now you may be thinking "*laugh* you're a stupid cubing noob, huh? everybody knoiws that and that was useless" but instead of "F R U R' U' *arrow* U F R U R' U' *line* F R U R' U' *cross" this small variation of the begginers method algorithm means you will have to only do one algorithm for each cross case! no repeats of F R U R' U' to slow down your time! now, of course any of you who know full OLL will already know this but.... yw :)

i've mainly been slowly incorperating CFOP into my solves, so when i put f2l in the begginers method i got wayyy faster, so now what i'm doing is adding PLL, basically just doing an R', D', R, D on all of the corners, executing the headlight alg, then just the clockwise/counterclockwise algorithms and it's solved! this is actually funny because i can be one of those kids who misses all of the "o, e, a, i, u" sounds in the words so "hy, ws gnna call you back, bt i knw CFP" xD! cuz i'm solving in cfp! :P

very good site i must say, my fastest with the beginner's method was 1:04 and i've bumped that up to 50 seconds with f2l! still need to memorize full CFOP but i am very happy with this method. i'm reletively new to speedsolving (i learned to solve the cube a couple months ago) and back then my fastest was exactly three minutes, very happy with the results and this was really easy to learn, thanks!

I am currently getting solve times around 50 seconds using CFOP method. Is this a good average? What should i work on to get better? if someone could help that would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now i would definitely say that one main thing you need is practice, but there are some things you need to do. for about a day or so go in slow motion but do CFOP continuously until you aren't spending time looking for the pieces, finger tricks are good and i would suggest researching and practicing advanced finger tricks. and finally the cube. if you have a rubik's brand then you are god, because no one can get THAT fast with a rubik's brand:O but seriously you'll need a really good cube, i would suggest a moyu weilong, or perhaps some sort of gans puzzle.

LORDY! THATS MY BEST TIME :O

Hey, hi again! I tried to learn full CFOP but it was boring to me learn all the algorithms, so instead of practicing CFOP, I started to learn Roux method, and let me say it's more efficient that CFOP, and my PB is 6.45 seconds! This is a good web page to learn CFOP. Keep going

Nice work Eduardo. I've never looked into the Roux method but you have to find what works for you!

Yeah! but Roux is not as fast as CFOP. With CFOP you can get sub-5 solves, but with Roux its difficult to achieve that times. A pro of Roux is that you can solve the cube with less moves, but it´s a kind-of slow method. I´m thinking to change and try to learn full CFOP, and with the help of this web page,I can learn it.

I’m finding that on CPLL if there are no highlights present I do the first algorithm twice as stated but still no headlights. On some solves I’ve ended up doing the algorithm 3 or 4 times to get the headlights to appear. Am I doing something incorrectly?? Thanks Lewis.

Hmm! It is possible that you will need to do it multiple times, but usually only once or twice. Is the top face completely yellow before doing the algorithm? It can be a tricky one because of the x rotation.

so good improved by 1 minute XD thx guys

I really like this site! i memorize up to 3 algorithms a day!

super nice site ive improved my solvetime by a whole minute

I found this page last summer, and it was the very thing that pushed me into speedcubing. After six months or so, today I finally broke your record of that time (with a 16.34) and came back where it all started. Thank you for all the help and the good work. I owe you one.

Excellent work Sanivel! Today the student has become the master. I'm proud of you my young apprentice, and may you continue to soar to ever increasing heights.

Awsome guide. Really easy to understand

so i went to the algorithms page, and I used one for my case and it worked :P

oh sorry it's almost midnight in uk so you probably won't answer till later

This website is great, it has different methods, a huge table of algorithms, a timer I use every day to beat my record, and even a notation helper. Still in cfop, there could be some easier algorithms.

can someone please tell me what the name of the method of this website is? https://www.youcandothecube...

That's the CFOP (or Fridrich) method, which is the one that I teach on this site!

This has to be the best site for rubik cube solving. The way you explain is so easy. I am a fan of your writing.

Aw, shucks. Thanks!

This site is the best one i found on the internet. Already recommended it to a couple of friends.

Thanks!
