Year of the Horse Edition: When Myth, Speed, and Innovation Meet
As the Chinese New Year is coming, GANCUBE welcomes a brand-new festive release inspired by one of the most powerful mythical creatures in ancient Chinese culture, the Tianma (Heavenly Horse) from The Classic of Mountains and Seas. Known for its wings, boundless energy, and auspicious symbolism, Tianma represents success, momentum, and breakthroughs. This spirit lies at the heart of GAN’s Year of the Horse Chinese New Year Editions.
More than just a visual celebration, this release blends cultural storytelling with advanced cubing engineering, delivering both performance-driven speed cubes and next-generation smart cubes designed for modern cubers.
The Spirit of Tianma: A Design That Moves Forward
In traditional mythology, Tianma is not merely a horse. It is a divine creature that runs across the sky, breaking limits and carrying fortune wherever it goes. GAN translated this legend into a bold, contemporary cube design.
The dual-wing silhouette echoes the image of Tianma spreading its wings, symbolizing speed and upward momentum. Internally, the cube features a vibrant orange core, a color associated with vitality, optimism, and celebration. Paired with purple magnetic capsules, the internal structure creates a striking contrast that feels energetic, futuristic, and full of life.
This design philosophy reflects GAN’s belief that a Rubik’s cube or 3x3 cube can be more than a puzzle. It can be a symbol of progress, passion, and personal growth.
GAN V100 Leap: A Magnetic Speed Cube Built for Control
GAN V100 Leap year of the horse edition is a performance-focused magnetic cube built for stability and consistency. With a 55 mm size, the cube fits comfortably in hand, offering excellent control for a wide range of solving styles.
Instead of magnetic levitation, this edition uses a spring-based GES system, delivering a grounded and predictable turning feel. Many speedcubers prefer springs for their feedback and reliability, especially during high-accuracy solves. Combined with 64 factory-installed magnets, the cube offers precise alignment and confident corner positioning without feeling overly aggressive.
The matte surface finish further enhances grip and comfort, making it ideal for long practice sessions or competition environments. Whether you’re practicing algorithms or chasing faster averages, this speed cube is designed to stay stable under pressure.
Performance isn’t only about speed. Balance matters just as much. With a lightweight build of around 64 g, the cube feels agile while maintaining enough resistance for controlled turns. This balance helps reduce fatigue and improves consistency, especially for cubers who value clean, accurate solves.
From casual solvers to experienced competitors, this cube delivers a refined experience that reflects GAN’s continuous pursuit of precision engineering.
GAN356 i Carry 4 Smart Cube: Smart Cubing Enters the New Year
For cubers who enjoy data-driven training, the GAN356 i Carry 4 Chinese New Year Edition Smart Cube brings intelligence into the festive lineup.
Designed with portability and simplicity in mind, this smart cube uses replaceable button batteries instead of rechargeable systems. With no charging required and up to 150 hours of battery life, it’s always ready when inspiration strikes.
The cube connects seamlessly to the Cube Station app, allowing users to track solves, analyze performance, and improve efficiently. As a special New Year bonus, each purchase includes exclusive in-app skins and avatar frames, extending the festive theme into the digital cubing experience.
This combination of physical design and digital interaction makes the GAN356 i Carry 4 an ideal choice for learners, travelers, and cubers who want smart training without complexity.
Where Culture Meets Technology
GAN’s Chinese New Year Editions are not simply recolors. They represent a deeper philosophy: blending cultural heritage with modern innovation.
The Year of the Horse theme celebrates movement, courage, and continuous progress, values that resonate deeply within the cubing community. Whether you approach cubing as a competitive sport, a daily hobby, or a smart learning journey, GAN aims to support every step forward.
From magnetic speed cubes engineered for stability to smart cubes built for insight and growth, this release showcases how tradition and technology can coexist beautifully.
A New Year, A New Journey with GAN
No matter how you define it, whether as a Rubik’s cube, a 3x3 cube, or a professional GAN speed cube, cubing is about solving challenges and moving forward. The Year of the Horse Chinese New Year Editions embody this idea through design, performance, and meaning.
As the new year begins, let Tianma’s wings carry your solves faster, steadier, and further than ever before.
Celebrate the New Year. Embrace momentum. Cube forward with GANCUBE.
