Important F2L Algorithms For Intuitive F2L Users Weston Mizumoto 2009-06-21 | http://twitter.com/TheWestonian These are just a collection of a few algorithms that you should learn even if you use intuitive F2L. The reason behind it is the move count. The whole reason someone will learn F2L algorithms is to reduce their move count and as a result, speed up their times. These few cases however, are hard to do intuitively and would require a lot of turns. Cube:Edison ALGORITHMS 1. Pair in slot with edge un-oriented: R U' R' d R' U2 R U2' R' U R 2. Pair in slot with corner twisted CCW: R U2' R U R' U R U2' R2' 3. Pair in slot with corner twisted CW: R U R' U' R U2 R' U' R U R' 4. Corner above destination, facing up, with edge flipped: U2 R2' U2 R' U' R U' R2' 5. Mirror of last case: (y') U2 R2' U2 R U R' U R2 6.

Basic Multislotting: Influencing bad pairs using different inserts Weston Mizumoto 2010-06-13 | This cube is an F2 with shock oil. Multislotting is NOT just inserting two pairs in at once, This is one of the ways that I use to break up bad pairs. This is especially useful in OH, since you have extra time to see what your F2L looks like. Sorry i havent made a video in forever. I was busy with school (I got striaght As btw :) ) I should be back during the summer though.

Official Rubiks Magic Average: 2:00 Weston Mizumoto 2009-08-04 | http://twitter.com/TheWestonian I practiced this for 15 minutes the night before the competition. I managed to win this somehow. average was 2 seconds flat :) P.S. i dont like magic. I think its too repetitive. If i wanted to do magic, i would be sport stacking too. Done at Houston Open

Additional Extended Cross Approaches Weston Mizumoto 2009-07-18 | i learned most of these while playing around with petrus. It helps a lot if your'e color neurtal, but I'm not either. Remember that there are an infinite ways to get an extended cross and these are just the ones that i use. Since these moves are all intuitive moves, there is almost always a better way of doing it so all your real success comes from practice. http://twitter.com/TheWestonian
