    Pro Shop version: thecubicle.us/...
    This is our in depth review of the GAN356 Air SM, current 3x3 average world record cube and GAN's newest flagship puzzle. A successor to the highly acclaimed Air UM, the SM comes with a few cool new features, including magnet slots, a reworked GES system, and a unique honeycomb surface design. The SM is famous for its soft feel and light, effortless turning.
    Shoutouts to Chris's Z perm at 3:32. Great M slices.

      But its cheap and smarter to buy the non magnetic cause you can magnetize it (unlike the um)

    • @unknownxxx3830
      @unknownxxx3830 Před 6 lety

      BMLCuber7 the slots for magnets are removed to make the cube lighter......so you will not be able to magnetize gan air s
