Rubik's Cube Shortcuts (Part 1)

Part 1 for a tutorial on how to solve the Rubik's Cube faster. Be sure you know how to solve the cube normally before watching. All algorithms used are shown at the end of part two:

I have also made an advanced tutorial here, but note, learning it renders this tutorial almost useless:

If you don't know how to solve the Rubik's Cube normally, check out my video how:

I just used vaseline on my cube

My reaction after turning it for the first time: O_O

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This tip was very useful! I can finally speed cube! (Or, at least pretend to XP)

Say, will vaseline continuously spill out of my cube after the dosing? I put it on all the black parts; so when it turns it really lubes itself XD

@AdrianFreerunUK ERROR CODE 302: trolling not permitted

@AdrianFreerunUK How does he have no life... Having no life is playing video games 24/7 which you probably do but what hes doing is developing his brain and getting alot smarter and it can be very useful. do you even know how to solve one...

*Facepalm* Can believe I never thought of doing the L on the last layer backwards.... Just went from a 62s solve to to 45s almost everytime

for the yellow cross the way u had it with the 2 yellow corners put the 2 yellow corners on the 3 layer use the algorithim R, U, R prime , U,R U2,R prime. then use the same algorithim if u did it rite then put the 1 yellow corner on the bottom left corner and use r ,u ,r prime u , r , u prime. :)

[XcodXx200]

you spelled recommend wrong :P

[Whaffel]

my biggest issue with solving a cube isn't the moves, but not being able to recognize the pieces quickly enough.

[CardTrickPerformance]

you sound so evil when you say 2d

[TheHowitzer105]

You are suspiciously skillful with that vaseline.
