  • There are a lot of mistakes that are very common for cubers to make in their solves. In this video, I'll go over the worst of those mistakes, and how to fix them. Fixing these mistakes is CRUCIAL to improving if you're a beginner or intermediate solver, so realizing that you make these mistakes and then fixing them is a key step in the process of improving. If you want to know how to get faster at cubing, this is the right video to watch!
    Note: this video is very CFOP centric and oriented towards beginner and intermediate solvers

    5. Poor turning - guilty, not sure how to improve. Guess I can start by watching what you do there at 0.25x. But I'm not looking forward to any D moves, let alone pushes (shiver).
    4. F2L tunnel vision - not guilty.
    3. Not using inspection well - not guilty, but I have a different problem: I could spend 30 sec and still not be able to fully plan the cross in some cases.
    2. Cube rotating too much - guilty. I mainly cube rotate to look for pieces. I knew the edge orientation identification, however there are 1 or 2 cases where the edge is oriented but it takes either a horrific number of moves or F/B turns and stuff to solve the pair without cube rotations.
    1. Inefficient F2L - somewhat guilty. I definitely don't know how to use different F2L solutions for the same case. But I think I mainly struggle with a) finding pieces and b) quickly figuring out how to solve them.
    Thanks for the video!

    Brody, as you continue your work its very clear to me that the mathematical content will be the next step in your evolution as a content creator with regards to the cubing community.
    Hopefully your progress and success as a creator takes you to new places that everyone is very excited to learn from and with you during your journey.

    i know so many youcuber using bad finger trick like cube solve hero cubing encoded and more looking like they never touch a speed cube before (but they are using a really expensive and good speed cube such as gan x or xs valk elite etc.)

    How to stop cube rotating?
    EASY TO ANSWER
    Learn ZZ
    ZZ has “EO-line” which makes all bad edges to good edges so that you can stop rotating for the rest of your solve.

    Brody, I want to make a request. Can you make a video about how to insert pairs on the back slot?

    0:17 I learned how to do that today. And it probably saved me 12 moves to a solved state

    Hey can you make a video showing certain things people can do wrong and how they can improve that because I’ve been cubing 8 years and I’m 11 1/2 and I still struggle to memorize certain f2l cases and I know you made a video of that and I’ve watched all your videos and they really didn’t help with the situation I’m in and I’ve spent a lot of time practicing over this quarantine thing and I’m trying very hard and my dad doesn’t really like that I spend my time cubing gaming and hanging out with my neighbors and that makes me want to stop and then I watch your videos and keep going because I realize that as long as I’m happy that’s all that matters😁

    Thanks for the video man!. Can I ask you what is your setup on the GAN 356 X? I can't get myself to like mine so maybe I could try a setup that you like
