That being said, after I finished my second or third cube, I became involved with doing Rubik's cubes quickly, which involves a set of strategies you can read about online. My best cube time is like thirty seconds, which is actually pretty slow in the world of speed rubik's cubing. The world record for solving a rubik's cube (last I checked) was 8.80 seconds.
