Step 1
|
The corners of the 1st layer When all the corners are processed, your cube will look like this:
With movements 1, 1', 2 or 2' place a first corner with a white side on the first layer.
If necessary, rotate the cube around the vertical axis.
|
Case a
the white side of the corner is on the left in front of you
|
Case b
the white side of the corner is on the right in front of you
|
|
Step 2
|
The centers of the 2nd layer When all the centers are processed, your cube will look like this:
The sequence used is always the same, it exchanges the front center with the bottom center, the left and right centers are also exchanged.
In all cases, you must observe the opposite colors, they must correspond to the green - blue couple or the orange - red couple.
The idea is:
case 1: always go down a poorly placed center, starting with those whose opposite centers do not correspond.
case 2: always put a center other than the yellow in its place. |
Case 1a
the yellow side is below
The colors of the opposite centers are not respected You must move down one of the poorly placed centers and therefore place it in front of you before applying the algorithm.
Colors concerned in our case: green or red.
You will find yourself in case 2
|
Case 1b
the yellow side is below
The colors of the opposite centers are respected but reversed You must move down one of the poorly placed centers and therefore place it in front of you before applying the algorithm.
Colors concerned in our case: all.
You will find yourself in case 2
|
Case 2a
the yellow side is on one side
The colors of the opposite transverse centers are not respected or the color of the center at the back is correct You must move up the center of the face below and therefore rotate the cube in order to have the same color of the corners in front of you. before applying the algorithm
Do the same with the other colors until you find yourself in case 1 or have solved the Skewb Xtreme.
Order of colors: green -> red -> orange -> blue
|
Case 2b
the yellow side is on one side
The colors of the opposite transverse centers are respected (but reversed) and the color of the center at the back is correct You must move up the center of the face below and therefore rotate the cube in order to have the same color of the corners in front of you. before applying the algorithm
You will see that the opposite transverse centers will be placed automatically.
|
|
Step 3
|
The corners of the 3rd layer When all the corners are processed, your cube will look like this:
|
Case a
2 corners are correctly oriented
Search among the 2 others for the one whose yellow side will appear on the right in front of you, then apply the algorithm:
After correctly orienting the Skewb Xtreme, you then find yourself in case b.
|
Case b
No corners are correctly oriented
Place the 2 corners on the left with the yellow faces visible on the side, then apply the algorithm:
All that remains is the centers to orientate.
|
|
Step 4
|
Orientation of the centers When all the centers are processed, your cube will look like this:
In all cases, the Up center is correctly oriented at the start
|
Case a
Down center is not correctly oriented
only 1 side center is correctly oriented
Place it at the back, then apply the algorithm:
This algorithm allows you to rotate the Front, Down, Left and Right centers by 180°.
You have solved the Skewb Xtreme.
|
Case b
Down center is not correctly oriented
1 side center is not correctly oriented
Place it on the left, then apply the algorithm:
This algorithm allows the Down and Left centers to be rotated by 180°.
You have solved the Skewb Xtreme.
|
Case c
Down center is correctly oriented
2 side-by-side side centers are not correctly oriented
Place them on the left and at the back, then apply the algorithm:
This algorithm allows the Left and Back centers to be rotated by 180°.
You have solved the Skewb Xtreme.
|
Case of
Down center is correctly oriented
2 opposing side centers are not correctly oriented
Place them in front and behind, then apply the algorithm:
This algorithm allows the Front and Back centers to be rotated by 180°.
You have solved the Skewb Xtreme.
