  • Lucas Etter was the first to break sub-5 on the Rubik's Cube in 2015, was 2016 National Champion and 3rd at Worlds 2017. He was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in 2017 which prevented him from cubing for over a year. In this clip from "The Cubing Experience" Lucas shares his experience and his changed perspective.

    Yo también tengo artritis reumatoide desde hace diez años. Apenas el año pasado en 2022 me enamoré del speed cubing. Me ha ayudado mucho a mantener mis manos activas. En abril iré a mi primer torneo. Eres todo un ejemplo a seguir. Saludos desde México. Eres un héroe.

    Thanks for making this video, it really gives me hope. I recently got back into cubing but I cubed way more than what my hands were ready for. I constantly kept cubing even after my hands and arms were sore and now I have small pains in my arms and hands. I know I have to take a break and I'll get better but it was hard to deal with. Watching this video made me feel a lot better about it.

    Maybe that is something cube manufactures can take into account, make magnets less strong? On the XS and on the tengyun V2, the weakest one is still a bit too strong for me.

    • @skull123
      @skull123 4 роки тому +1

      How is the weakest setting on the xs too strong for you? It literally feels non-magnetic
      But its difficult for cube companies to make magnets even weaker than that, there would be no point for even having magnets at that point

    So... stay away from magnet cubes? If this happens to enough other people, and given that there's no warning label on the cube(s) used, there could be a class action lawsuit in the making

      Yes and not only their quality can not compete with other brands, their quality control is bad. The GAN RSC used in Worlds 2017 and Worlds 2019 for Rubiks Nations Cup has bad quality control. Some of the cubes are as good as GAN Air SM without magnet and some ara as worst as ordinary Rubiks Brand
