> [@kclejeune](#): > > Way. Way. Way. Way. Better. I’ll have to get one! Hey have you heard of the “mod” where you put cube4you screws springs and core in dayan cubes? That’s how I have my zhanchi set up and basically the springs aren’t as stiff so it smoothens up the cube a ton, have you tried this? I’m going to do that with my guhong v2 very soon. ---

just switched my zhanchi to dayan core and springs and my guhong to cube4you core and springs. I found that the cube4you make it a looser faster feel while still maintaining cornercutting and a tighter nonpopable tension. So if you want a faster cube go for the cube4you springs and core, but I found that when my zhanchi slowed down and I used that, I was in more control and my times became more constant. I got back in my grove of an average of 16 with times from 11 to 17. So slower cubes are my thing I guess! ---
