Although it is an awkward hobby, speed cubing is my favorite of all of them. I first learned about it after randomly searching Rubik’s Cube World Record in youtube. After that, I got a 2×2 (look at pictures) cube, and after a week, I had created my own way of solving it. A few weeks later, I figured out how to solve most of the regular Cube, and just searched the steps online to finish the solve. I got a 4×4 around Christmas, and unfortunately went straight to a video on solving it. Just two days before I posted this, I got my 5×5 cube. Although huge, it is the same as the 4×4 (how to solve it), so I got that one down fast.
The day I got my 5×5, I learned the Jessica Fridrich Method (fast method) for the 3×3 and 2×2. I’m still slow at it, but my times are improving by ten seconds.
Here are my main records:
2×2 Record: 2.34 Seconds (8 moves)
2×2 World Record: 0.69 Seconds (6 moves)
3×3 Record: 27.98 Sec
3×3 World Record: 5.66 Seconds
4×4 Record: 2:43.21
4×4 World Record: 30.17 Sec.
5×5 Record: 12:52.12
5×5 World Record: 56.23 Seconds
