My Road To Speedcubing

Hi,

I am XB Cuber!

This is how I started speedcubing..

When I was six years old, my father passed me a Rubik's brand Rubik's cube. I must be wondering what this colourful cube is?

My father did not manage to teach me how to solve a Rubik's cube.

I was 8 years old when I picked up the Rubik's cube again. Google explained what a Rubik's cube is and what is speedcubing about. After that, I learnt how to Rubik's cube via YouTube.

When I was able to solve the Rubik's cube using the beginner method, I convinced my father to purchase a DaYan GuHong online. As a result, the DaYan GuHong was my first speed cube. As of now, my father have bought me the following puzzles:

  • Rubik's Magic
  • 2x2: WitTwo -> DaYan ZhanChi
  • 3x3: DaYan GuHong -> DaYan ZhanChi -> YJ -> DaYan Stickerless -> MoYu AoLong (v2)
  • 4x4: MoYu AoSu
  • 5x5: ShengShou

I started my first Rubik's cube competition, Singapore Open 2013, when I was 9 years old. You can view the video in my YouTube Channel.

Credits to Erno Rubik and my father for starting my speedcubing dreams!!
