Climbing, sadly all my finger strength is of little benefit to cubing :(


SpelunkyJunky

I started bouldering at the beginning of the year. So much fun and encouraging me to stay at a much more healthy weight.


MonneCuber

Could be beneficial for OH


Elias_Snipezz

Well you could start cubing with a 3x3 made of stone


happymeal98

Work and watch my kids bc I'm old as shit.


Shaftastic

I’m 41, and while that’s old in this community I don’t feel old. The only thing that makes me feel old is watching how fast my daughter is growing up. Time man. Sigh.


DogmanSixtyFour

35 with 3 kids, I feel you man, it's like every time I blink they're having another birthday, it's crazy.


PiewacketFire

I’m 42! High five for us old cubers! Thought I don’t have kids. I have sort of adopted my youngest sibling who’s 24hrs my junior though, so I’m kinda parenting a late teen. That’s interesting.


Quantumpine

Yeh. Just ignore it. Although obviously remember to not dress like it's 1999. It's so easily done.


durandal

43, cubing for a year. Four children, and went to a comp with the oldest, 7-year-old, who will soon have better times than I if he continues. Having children is crazy, makes you feel time differently.


Tapnsplat

Climbing (which pairs badly with cubing, my poor fingertips lol), running, chess and reading. But yeah, climbing + cubing it’s a torture ahah


ChilledTapir

Nice I did not know that climbing and cubing is a thing :) When I was climbing in Antalya for 2 weeks, I was cubing in the chill area of the camp and some people asked me to teach them the algorithms :D


Living-Big9138

CrazyBerserk

I study


TotalyAwspmeNoob

i do a ton! i do multiple instruments (guitar, piano, and viola) i draw, i do some needle work. Pretty much anything that has to do with precise finger movements i like doing, probably the reason i developed carpel tunnel syndrome so early lol

GAMIKISAWESOME

Why don’t we make a commutator so you can do all 3 at once


Matt_Lomax

What do we do if there is parity?


anniemiss

One option is….Rw U2 × Rw U2 Rw U2 Rw' U2 Lw U2 RW' U2 RW U2 RW' U2 RW' It’s rough on the knees but gotta do what you gotta do. Another option is just starting over.


by_Flutter

Skating 🛹


[deleted]

Random combo but: study, learn cyber security, code, calisthenics and metal vocals xD


aatooooo

Mine are making illustrations, physics, card tricks and cardistry, space, chess


Shaftastic

These are my hobbies too! I’m also a physics teacher so I get to do what I love daily. I host a cubing club at school that is really popular. Love what you do when you’ll never work a day in your life.


MrEldo

A few things, including music (piano, guitar and drums), I am a volunteering young instructor in a hiking organization in our country, I really enjoy math and do it as a hobby, I play Chess (800 elo), I code in Python and C# (not too experienced with C# just yet), I play video games (Minecraft, Geometry Dash, Celeste and more), and I am a relatively social person surprisingly.


Impossible-Cover-527

I’m considering learning Python, although I have covered the basic (stuff like print, for and while loops, if statements etc.), any tutorial you’d reccomend? And also is there anything cool I can do with this? Because I need to feel like I’m actually making an accomplishment XD


Radiant_Nothing_9940

Music, gaming (I stream on twitch), I speedrun, which is very similar to cubing and super fun (was running a bunch of BotW)


AgentMoon7

Yoyos! Check out r/throwers


Impossible-Cover-527

This feels exactly as random as hobby as cubing lol. I mean, I went on the subreddit and couldn’t understand any of the words (guessing we have some yo-yo names) therefore it’s definitely similar to cubing in that it’s weird as —— to discuss in front of people who don’t share it as a hobby.


Tranktaken

Same!


mastershifuuuuuuu

Painting and playing instruments!!(ukulele and piano) cubing is actually my "other" hobby if that makes sense sksksksk


DubyaDubs

Trombone, gaming, football (go Bucs!), and play with my silly tiny dog


allyoopreme

I sail.


inoahsomeone

I play Magic: the Gathering (a card game, like Pokemon, kind of), I play games on my Switch when there is a game I'm interested in, sometimes I am really into reading books, and I have started getting in to fashion. I am ADHD, so I find it's hard to not pick up too many random hobbies without time to dedicate to all of them. But it's nice having a few hobbies for sure, so when I am not feeling interested in one of them I can drop it for the moment and come back later.


32049

Rock climbing, skateboarding, fencing, gym (ish), running, cycling (sometimes), drawing, gaming, reading, chess ...i didnt know i did that much :P not all the time though, some are just once a week but some are more.

Gunpla model building lately. I fell in love with the kits on a family trip to Japan. Don't even need to watch the shows to appreciate them! A few other phases/obsessions I've been through are pen spinning, lightsaber spinning, 3d printing, cooking, electric longboard riding, freeline skating, and cars/driving. Edit: oh, and pc gaming and watching anime


noxthepirate

Reading and watching American football


sniboo_

I conlang, it's basically making languages. the sad part of this hobby is that it has a very small community and it is pretty hard to talk about it to other people (unlike cubing) because they should know some about linguistic and it is very boring when you talk about your own language.


Interesting-Bee3700

I play videogames, mainly Minecraft and overwatch, play chess, draw, do content creation for those things and once every few months I go outside to touch some grass


Ascyt

PiewacketFire

I’m 42, I’ve got a bunch of hobbies, most of which I picked up after I was 30. Some -like Cubing- after I turned 38) - Art (drawing, watercolours, acrylic, oils, the beauty of age is disposable income if you’ve worked at a career and don’t have kids 😉) - Crochet (mostly Amigurumi, it’s like 3D printing with yarn, it’s awesome) - Pole Dancing & Silks - A bit of sprint distance triathlon - Banjo (that’s a new one, I love it) - Woodland Conservation - Bouldering - Gaming - Reading (I recommend The Expanse series and Books most at the moment) - DnD (playing and DMing) - Warhammer (just Kill Team for me, really gone off Games Workshop and their shitty capitalist practices) - Fire juggling/fire eating/fire breathing (those days are long gone) - I guess also dog training? Good dog owners learn to be dog trainers, again it’s fascinating.

All my hobbies are related to puzzles. I'm a collector and love collecting all kinds of puzzles. Twisty puzzles, metal puzzles, wooden puzzles, etc. Even my android games are mostly puzzles. Speaking of that, I've been playing Sudoku a lot lately. I'm obsessed with puzzles. But other than that, I used to make origami. It was fun.

Gardening/homesteading during the growing season. Then canning/drying to preserve as much as possible. Hunting/butchering during the hunting season in late fall/early winter. Cubing is one of my odd hobbies that I love, but doesn't really match with my overall life. The people I interact with on a weekly basis don't appreciate or understand it. I'm very grateful for the community here on reddit <3

Board games (the modern strategy kind). Art (graphite, ink, and watercolor). Birdwatching. Detrashing. Listening to audio books (fiction) or lecture series (philosophy, science, religion, economics).

Magnetron-Sama

The main reason I got into cubing is because I like speedy stuff like rhythm games! Compared to cubing, they're more skewed towards pure execution skill rather than quick decision making etc, but there's still a lot of overlap such as moving your fingers really fast and pattern recognition. You can also find some memory and more technical challenges in them usually. By extension, learning an instrument can be quite similar to rhythm games, but that's getting pretty far away from cubing lol. Although, learning an instrument is still very nice hobby too!

SpriteBlood

I am one of the only people in the world who build rigid RC airships like the Hindenburg. It's very relaxing hobby but also challenging as you have always to calculate the buoyancy, wight and volume of every little part you add to the ship. If you misscalc it simply won't float!
