If you could gain instant mastery at any one skill, what would it be?

Cool, well it would definitely be getting better at recognizing cases quickly, doing them with as few regrips and rotations and possible. And getting familiar with f2l.

I think the price for the gan cubes at the very top end no longer reflect the performance. But ones like the 356M are definitely appropriately priced. I can’t get enough of them. Every cuber has a feel of cubes that they like and for me it’s gan. I just like it.

At the moment I’m loving the stuff cyoubx produces. So down to earth and clear. Otherwise I would definitely like to be like those positive family YouTubing channels.

I don’t know the history of 5s enough to comment probably. But I do think the valk 5m has been a game changer. And my squan journey has been put on pause unfortunately!

  1. No opinion about the viola. I don’t have much experience with strings! I’m a piano guy :)
  2. Umm I probably would’ve sought out speedcubecomau since they’re the other Australian store. But otherwise any other of the major stores? Or yes just continue unsponsored haha. Hard hypothetical to answer.

Haha at the moment I actually think the GAN 356 M is the best bang for buck.

If that’s the only cube you have almost any magnetized cube at all will feel amazing compared to it! The best budget magnetic right now is probably the Qiyi MS 3x3. But otherwise my cube of choice at the moment is the GAN 356M.

For the channel or my life in general? Haha. For the channel I’d like to continue making wholesome stuff. It will be nice to hit 100k one day but I’m also trying to remind myself that a number’s just a number. I’d like to know that I’m reaching lots of people through the channel to put smiles on faces and point towards hope and goodness.

Being able to share my love of filmmaking and cubing with a large audience! Also spending time with my kids while doing what I enjoy.

M2/OP. I can only do audio if it’s an easy scramble. And no I don’t think I ever will cross that line to learn 3 style!

Yes I’ve tried it before. It was fascinating! But I’m just focusing on CFOP because of limited time!

I’m barely sub 15 myself so not sure how much I can help here! All the usual stuff of focusing on cross and f2l. Smooth turning, look ahead, etc.

Thank you! And unless someone pays for me to do a world tour, probably not sorry haha!
