I  will be issuing a $25 Coupon Code for Speed Cube Shop to three giveaway winners via email.  The giveaway ends one month from the date of upload.


The three giveaway winners will be:

1 Whoever answers the most questions on this tutorial helping others.

2 Share the video (Facebook, twitter, etc.) and post the link in a comment. I will put names in a hat and randomly choose one for a winner. 


You can share multiple places with each link posted in a separate comment and each comment will count as an additional name in the hat but do not spam video to unwelcome sites or audiences.


3 Dale Carnegie Award winner.  Society needs a lesson in civil discourse.  Whoever offers the most diplomatic reply to unreasonable critics wins the Dale Carnegie Award.  Be tactful and polite.


This may not be necessary as profanity is auto blocked and obvious trolls are banned.  Constructive criticism is welcome but some people lose a sense of perspective and common courtesy when online and need a gentle nudge back to reality.

48 Second Solve using 3yo Beginner Method / Solve Rubik’s Cube Under 1...





In this video Emily Gittemeier is using our simple “3yo Beginner Method” to Solve a Rubik’s Cube in less than 1 minute.
See our “How To” https://youtu.be/9spDGBeWl1o if you would like to learn how to solve the Rubik’s Cube with this easy Beginner Method.

Click here to Subscribe:  http://goo.gl/DDfVab   

Used in the video is a GAN Infinity 354M Magnetic Speed Cube.

Using this method Emily is able to solve the 3x3 Cube in as little as 42 seconds if she gets Lucky Skips or doesn’t have to repeat Cross, Fish, Corner, or Edge algorithms (what we refer to as an “Unlucky” or “Unluckies ” )

We chose to showcase solves in which Emily did have to repeat algorithms (Unluckies) and without any Lucky Skips to illustrate that this method can be used to easily solve the Rubik’s Cube in less than 60 seconds no matter the case.

She averages about 47 second solves with this “3yo Beginner Method” but is now moving on to learning “Intermediate Method”


First 3x3 Gan Cube Solve 

  • Yellow Cross / Line Alg 2 Times  (F R U R’ U’ F’)

  • Big Fish Alg  (R U’2 R’ U’ R U’ R’)

  • PLL Corners Alg 2 Times  (x R’ U R’ D2 R U’ R’ D2 R2 x’)

  • PLL Edges Alg 2 Times  (R2 U R U R’ U’ R’ U’ R’ U R’)



Second 3x3 GAN Cube Solve

  • Yellow Cross / Line Alg 1 Time  (F R U R’ U’ F’)

  • Cams Ugly Brother - Perform Little Fish  (R U R’ U R U2 R’)

  • Double Fish  (R U R’ U R U2 R’) (R U R’ U R U2 R’)

  • PLL Corners Alg 2 Times  (x R’ U R’ D2 R U’ R’ D2 R2 x’)

  • PLL Edges Alg 2 Times  (R2 U R U R’ U’ R’ U’ R’ U R’)


Anytime one of the algorithms has to be repeated, that is considered an “Unlucky” with this 3yo Beginner Method.

The “Intermediate Method” has an algorithm for each case so no repeats (Unluckies) - See our “How To Solve Rubik’s Cube Intermediate Method” video coming soon. 

“3yo Intermediate Method” consists of the following:

Advance White Cross
Intuitive F2L
Yellow Cross
  • Line
  • 3/6 
All 7 2 Look OLLs
  • Little Fish
  • Big Fish
  • Double Fish (advanced)
  • No Fish
  • Chameleon 
  • Chameleon’s Ugly Brother
  • Bug Eyes
All PLL Algs
  • 2 Corners Alg
  • No Corners Alg
  • Edges Right 
  • Edges Left
  • Edges 4 Across
  • Edges 4 Diagonal
