I just wanna ask if u guys solve a 3x3 by using wad kind of method? For me i use cross,Fridrich f2l and the rest are basics. i find that my timing sucks but can any1 share with me wad kind of method is better for speed cubing and how can i improve on my timing. My timing for now is around 50 secs

fridrich method is commonly used  . learn full oll and pll . then practice on recognition n execution will improve your timing  . practise to improve ba in general

My timing for now is around 50 secs  By basics what do you mean? It can be basic EO-EP-CP-CO(aka dan brown or dan knights or TRU method), or basic 4 look OLL/PLL last layer. Learn OLL/PLL if you haven't already.

The basics i mean are layer-by-layer.

He means the TRU method.

My lbl times are better than fridrich-minus-OLL. Any idea why? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlvBuED9498Is it recognition times? So do i use a metronome to practice or something, like everyone else does/is supposed to do? I don't really know your standards.

He means the TRU method. Convert to OLL/PLL then. That should clear that brick wall thats stopping you from getting (a lot) faster. My lbl times are better than fridrich-minus-OLL. Any idea why? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlvBuED9498Is it recognition times? So do i use a metronome to practice or something, like everyone else does/is supposed to do? I don't really know your standards. Cross is a little slow, a lot of lag time and unnecessary rotations on F2L.

i guess no one is fast when they just started CFOP method . it will be slower than their usual lbl for a period of time till they get used to the f2l,oll,pll recognition . its still practice i guess  . turn like shelley to improve ! lols , thats how i improve though  .

So.. any idea on how i could learn all those long algorithms? I'v tried to learn 1 OLL but i forgotten the algorithm the next day. Any tips from the experts?
