About me: Hello! I'm a cuber who hails from Texas and specialize in Megaminx. I try to improve as much as I can in all events, but megaminx is definitely my favorite.

Thanks! I went from barely sub 5 mins to sub 1:30 very helpful!

[@OxzowachiAlt]

[@looperover]

[@LukiTruki]

[@bigdzagos6007]

Started mega like less than a month ago i average 1:50-1:55 now and with some of this tips i hope i can get some seconds of my averages great video afterall!

[@Tottbjorn]

Thank you for a good video. I just wonder what algs you use from the PDF? Is there a "2-look" for Mega?

[@vjo3597]

That is really interesting

[@TCYlol]

1:26 i do this too but i think it might be better to recommend holding it with pinky on D face and ring, middle and index on BL face to do U2' flicks. definitely not necessary because of eido but still might be better

[@JavaCuber]

Double flicks are better than eido, but for me the trade-off between comfort and speed is worth it

[@LukiTruki]

this is going to be so helpful! (i have not watched it yet, but i will)
i was planning to get started on mega

[@Oxzowachi]

@@KardTrickKid dad... I got a full 12-year education in the time you've been gone... in fact, I'm thinking about going to get some milk and leaving my own children (I have two beautiful twins about to enter Pre-K!) for 12 years as well.

[@OskarSchoeppl]

BUT Gr8 vid, I'll definitly use it

[@SprinkerMC]

[@JavaCuber]

[@SprinkerMC]

@@JavaCuber martian is slow right? also do you lube the core?

[@TylerXPS12]

My problem here I accidentally bought moyu meilong and I am struggling

[@Mr_Frosty]

2:35 dayum those edits are so not clean but great video

[@JavaCuber]

lol it's hard to edit accurately when your computer is bad and only renders the preview at like 1 fps

[@spacepotat0763]

Do you still practice mega?

[@JavaCuber]

no

[@spacepotat0763]

@@JavaCuber then I'm the opposite of you, I used to main BLD but now I do mega. Lol.
