The 2X2 is the easiest and fastest WCA event. The world record is 0.49 seconds my best is 2.34 quite a while behind the world record. I recently learned the Ortaga method to solve it. My main is the Gan 251 M and i average around 10 seconds but will improve fast with Ortaga.
Gan 251 M

The Gan 251 M has a smooth feeling like other Gan cubes. The visible duo magnets look awesome and are definitely effective. It is small and a bit slippy at times but that is made up for with all the custom settings to suit your liking perfectly. This cube definitely is worth the 35.95$ on Cubing out Loud.
