Smooth Starts Every Solve: Cross + 1 Tutorial and Examples | 3x3 Rubik's Cube

Scrambles for the examples (cross solutions in parentheses): D B2 D B2 D2 L F D F R2 L2 U2 B2 F' R2 L2 U2 R2 B' (x2 y2 D2 R’ F’) B2 R2 F2 U' F2 D L2 U' D' B' U2 F L' R B' U D' R' F' R (x2 F R L) Edge orientation video that I mentioned: Practice plan: The website below allows you to control how many moves your cross takes to solve with the optimal solution, therefore controlling the difficulty of tracking pieces for cross 1. Make sure the cross color you want to solve on is on top of the cube when scrambling. For example, standard scrambling with white top and green front would result in a white cross that takes the desired number of moves to solve. You can also just use regular scrambles. # 1st level: unlimited inspection, low cross move count (1-5), just track position of possible F2L pairs, not orientation. 2nd level: unlimited inspection, low c
