Brief Biographical Sketch:
Timm[ie] Wong, a.k.a. DDRKirby(ISQ), first learned to solve a Rubik's Cube when he was in elementary school but became serious about "speedcubing" in his freshman year of high school. He currently has an average solve time of under 20 seconds using the "Fridrich Method" for speedcubing and has over 100 different cubing algorithms memorized through muscle memory. Although he doesn't practice cubing seriously anymore, he still attends speedcubing competitions once in a while when he can.

Think it would fun to freak out your parents who grew up in the 80’s? Come to this workshop and learn how to do all that.
Although the instructor owns many cubes of his own, this is a BYOC class. As in, you have to Bring Your Own Cube. They are available in stores around the nation, as well as online at www.rubiks.com.
