Sq-1 · Advanced
The Vandenbergh method and fast shape-making. Sub-12 averages.
Move sequences on this page are only checked to be legal moves for this puzzle in cubing.js. Treat them as demonstrations of the notation and the method, not as verified algorithm lists.
Methods
The standard speed method is Vandenbergh's. It solves the cube shape quickly, then finishes the pieces in a small number of algorithm steps. It needs a lot of algorithms but saves many moves.
Parity
The Square-1 has parity. Learn how to recognise it and avoid it where you can.
