Fancy, I know right? When I got this cube in particular, I started an
experiment and adjusted the tensioning towards the faster setting. I
noticed in my previous Rubik's cube mains that I would always adjust the
tension towards the slower end because applied too much force while
turning, tiring me out.

<h2>Personal Best Solve</h2>
<p>
This solve is one-of-a-kind; at the time of writing, no other solve of
mine comes close to how extraordinary this one is. For perspective, from
around ten thousand prior career solves, my previous personal best was
8.62 seconds. It was my most dramatic personal best solve time jump, and

Before you've even picked up the cube, you can already tell that the solve
presents a special opportunity. There exists not one, but <i>two</i> completed
2x2x1 F2L blocks. Complemented by easy cross edges, the solve manifests a rare
XXCross! Following that, the third and fourth pairs were easy-to-look-ahead
2-gen algorithms that each required a rotation for setup.

I couldn't have asked for an easier OLL; the fat anti-sune is one of my
fastest algorithms. Plus, it was already U-face oriented, making for easy
recognition. On the other hand, I was met with a Ja PLL, an algorithm I've
historically locked up on. Surprisingly, my execution was flawless, aided
by 25% chance of no AUF. Given that I've always struggled with solve
anxiety especially towards the end of the solve, I can't help but give
myself a pat on the back for how elegant the last layer was. Through the
culmination of an awesome scramble and perhaps an even more awesome
solution, my 6.48 second Rubik's cube solve is forever cemented as one of
my proudest life accomplishments!
