Product Information

Find the other 2 “favorite color” corners and move them into place. Now that you’ve established 2 starting corners, (for example, the 2 red corners that are next to 2 yellow corners), look for the 2 other “favorite color” (red, for example) corners on the Gear Ball. They will always be separated from each other only by a side piece, and you’ll be able to rotate them together into place. Move them around until they are the other 2 corners in the same face as your starting 2 corners (for instance, all 4 corners in the face will be red). [3] X Research source

For example, with the green face above the purple face, you might find that the bottom interior piece of the green face is purple, and the top interior piece of the purple face is green. This could be the first of your 8 mismatched pairs to fix. If you like using soft lures, and want a jig head that won't damage your lure bodies, then these jig heads are one of the best options out there. Turn the ball via the “R-U-R-U-R-U” algorithm once. With the 4 correct interior pairs in the “standing slice” position, turn the right side of the ball up 180 degrees (½ turn). Then, turn the upper side to the left 180 degrees (½ turn). Repeat these turns 2 more times apiece. [12] X Research source Any incorrect or damaged goods must be reported within 5 days of receipt.

If 8 interior pairs are incorrectly oriented, that means 4 are correctly oriented. And, you’ll be able to turn the ball so that these 4 pairs create a “belt” that goes around the entire center section of the sphere. Position the ball so this “belt” is facing up, down, left, and right, but not directly towards you. [11] X Research source Rotate any other misaligned gear rings into position with R4. Look over the ball to see if there are any gear rings still out of alignment. If so: [16] X Research source The interior pieces will now be in the correct vicinity, but still in the wrong faces. That is, according to the example, the purple interior piece will be at the bottom of the blue face, and the blue interior piece will be at the top of the purple face.

The turning is amazing. It’s easy to solve. It looks cool. It’s perfect, honestly. If you’re thinking about either getting this or the gear CUBE, get this one. Turning it takes zero effort at all.
