Berkeley Competition 2007: 4x4 in 1:06.53

This is me doing my best solve of 5 attempts. It is my best so far in competition and a new Portuguese/Philippine record. The full average was 1:29.17 1:25.07 1:06.53 1:27.10 1:08.77. Every solve had a at least 1 parity. I got 2nd place for the 4x4 event.

How much do you practice on each cube? Which do you spend the most time on, 3x3,4x4, or 5x5. Also, where do you get square 1. Are they hard to solve?

[mateusmoitinho]

i practice 3x3 the most. next is the 4x4 then 5x5. i practice 3x3 and 4x4 alot but not really the 5x5. you can order square1s at cube4youdotcom. they have less possible combos than a 3x3 but i find them harder. i just never practice them. i can get 2-3 min with some warm ups.

nope i use 2 edge method and no, my best time is 62 sec and i set it over 2 years ago ??!!?! it sucks that i cant beat it even now.

If you solve centres last then you won't get parity errors. However, most people use the centres-first method instead because it takes much longer to solve the centres on bigger cubes if they stick with the cage method.

Are there ever any cases of a 4x4 where you have no parities? Also, where can you find parity error algs?

Are you going to the world champs? I heard Erno Rubik's going to be there, don't know about jessica fridrich
