How it works

Hold the cube with white on the bottom. Find a white edge piece anywhere on the cube.

Bring it to the top layer, spin the top until it sits above the centre that matches its second colour, then turn that face twice to drop it into place.

Repeat for all four white edges. Check each one from the side: the side colour must match the centre under it.

Common mistakes

  • IF the “DO IT FOR ME” doesn’t solve properly after you rotated the cube, just use PRACTICE RESET.
  • Making a white plus but ignoring the side colours — the cross must match the centres.
  • Knocking an already-placed edge out while inserting the next one.

If it goes wrong: If you break a finished edge, bring it back to the top and insert it again the same way.
