My Main Speedcubes

Here are my main speedcubes. They are all really nice.

3x3: MoYu AoLong v2
It is fast, slightly bumpy, but has excellent corner cutting. It does not corner twist too.

2x2: DaYan ZhanChi
I don't have the MoYu LingPo, but I don't need to because the DaYan 2x2 is excellent!! It has the ability to corner cut 45 degrees, plus it is quiet and smooth.

4x4: MoYu AoSu
Although this is the only 4x4 that I have, I am confident that it is the best 4x4 on the market as of today. Fast and smooth, it can corner cut 1 cubie with ease. It rarely catches and does not pop as a result. However, I need another 4x4 for a backup. If you have any 4x4 recommendations, please post a comment below.

5x5: ShengShou
Again this the only 5x5 that I have, so I also need a backup. If you have any 5x5 recommendations, please post a comment below. The ShengShou is smooth, but can only corner cut one cubie. It easily catches and pops. However, it is a fast speedcube.

3x3 one-handed: MoYu AoLong v1 54.5mm / DaYan ZhanChi 50mm
Both are small and I alternate between the two. Both the ZhanChi and the AoLong is fast and corner cuts well. :)

There you have it!

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.
