Rubiks Cube/Fridrich Method
From charlesreid1
Overview
What is it
The Fridrich Method is a variation on the layer-by-layer method that relies more heavily on algorithms to make the solve faster.
Why
I am learning the Fridrich Method in an attempt to improve my cube time to be faster than 1 minute (my current plateau using the beginner's method, a.k.a. the Layer Method).
Solution Algorithm Steps
The Fridrich Method relies more heavily on algorithms to make the solve faster. The steps are similar to the layer-by-layer method, but with some differences. The steps:
1. Form the white cross on the bottom
2. Combine the 4 corner/edge pairs to simultaneously solve the first and second layers
3. Apply OLL (orient last layer) algorithms
4. Apply PLL (permute last layer) algorithms
