FTO Anti-Pop Kit: Reviews from Top Solvers!

The LBL Designs anti-pop kit is a set of 3D printed extensions for the DianSheng FTO that, in our testing so far, drastically reduces popping without affecting performance. However, none of us in the office are very proficient FTO solvers, so to properly show how this kit performs, we asked several experienced FTO solvers for their thoughts.

Special thanks to everyone featured!

The FTO is becoming quite popular . Could we see it as an official WCA event soon? 🤔

1:53 when a puzzle loosens itself that either means the core is broken (likely) or the springs are super cheap and wear out quickly (unlikely in a flagship puzzle)

I NEED THIS. Mine exploded while I was in the car when it exploded and a triangle vanished into the abyss 🕳️

It recently bought a fro and it’s one of the only puzzles apart from square-1 where my brain has no idea how to solve it

Okay, I've never touched an FTO, but DianSheng are clearly leaning towards making it a decent speedcube, and let's "face" it, it is going to become an event as there are now a good fair amount of unofficial round of it at competitions. While this puzzle seems good, it's also in its, I'd say, "beta" phase as a puzzle. From what I've seen and heard it's a step up from the rest, and it's the first stepping stone to what will become other brands following suit and releasing FTOs of their own designs.
(I'm not saying I'm right, this is just merely a combination of an opinion and an observation 🙂).
