I agree. If you practice enough with it, you really don't have a single cross color. You have two to choose from. I find that my usual cross color (white) actually makes my LL go easier, because the pieces are easier to see. Maybe I need two white sides... :P > Again, everything about switching to also using your opposite color > feels quite strange at first, but if you stick with it, you'll find > that it really isn't all that different from solving your regular > color.

If you orient centers prior to Step 4, you're left with the same recognition for either color. The only thing that changes is the single sticker on the UR and UL edges to its opposite color. If you don't orient centers first, it's the same thing, now that I think about it. The only two things that change are the U color on the UL and UR edges. > --- In [email protected], "kovacic81" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hello Everyone, > > > > > > For Opposite color cross solving, It is just as easy to do OLL and PLL > > on either side.

You just see which two corners need to switch 5/6 of the time, and the orientation. If you're using a standard color scheme, which I believe you are, you should get similar colors as opposites. Do you use Red and Orange for your LL color now? I don't see why learning to do two colors is really any harder than getting good at one. The colors are similar, and if you can recognize the permutation, you shouldn't have any trouble. Like I mentioned above, I actually get better LL's with my usual D color as U, because white is brighter. If you practice it enough (more than an hour or two, really) you'll notice how easy it starts to be. Just keep at it. You won't regret it. -Mike team [zb] ------------------------ Yahoo!
