A huge chance you will come across Dan Browns videos on the subject... in fact its almost&amp;nbsp;guaranteed&amp;nbsp;you will. That where i started but later&amp;nbsp;realized, when i wanted to get faster, that it was a VERY bad place to start. And so, i give you the alternative to learning the art of speed cubing. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.badmephisto.com/&quot;&gt;Badmephisto&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don&#39;t let the&amp;nbsp;algorithms&amp;nbsp;scare you away, they are easy to learn and become&amp;nbsp;second&amp;nbsp;nature while solving. You learn that an algorithm is not a series of letters which&amp;nbsp;correspond&amp;nbsp;to cube movements, but&amp;nbsp;in fact&amp;nbsp;a pattern of moves executed by the hand that become faster, and easier with time.&lt;br /&gt;

Right out of the box you know this cube is going to replace which ever you have now. The changing face on the back of the box is interesting too. This cube comes out of the box so perfectly you will not need to&amp;nbsp;adjust&amp;nbsp;the tension or apply silicone. If your worried about pops, this is a cube for you. Trying to get this thing to pop in a solve is nearly impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
