Stuartww  
Do you have a 2x2?  
I think you could get fast very quickly because you already know cmll which is similar to cll.

No.&nbsp; I want to get one soon, but I don’t really feel like spending 10 bucks just now.&nbsp; For now, I just use my 4x4x4.&nbsp; Are there any 5 dollar 2x2x2s that are decent?

Is the difficult part turning or just keeping a handle on the cube?

Yeah not really.,I think you can get a lingpo from a certain store for 7 bucks though. And it’s the turning that’s hard. The socks really get in the way.

I tried it. I tried one handed sock solve, and I literally couldn’t turn it without using the ground, so it took me about 5 minutes.

I’ll give you the reverse of my solution on it. Which will put it in the scrambled state  
RUR’URU’R’  
Essentially a cancellation into an antisune with no auf. Really easy solve. One looked.

I see you have come a long way since the last time I was reading this thread.  
Still avg around 21.

I’ve been doing around 200 solves everyday, which got me sub 13 within a year of cubing. It’s really all about how much you practice. Nice pb single!

```
 I'm not 100% sure the way to solve a 2x2x2 most efficiently. Right now I solve one layer first, then use CMLL to solve it. I know there are some more efficient algorithms which I will eventually learn for the 2x2x2.
 I was talking with my brother, and he said that it's true that a cube can only be solved in an even number of moves. I just think that's kind of interesting.

That is way more efficient than how I do it. It’ll be a good method for a long time. Eventually you could learn full eg, but it’s 120 algorithms.
