Colours rearranged on a proportional Twist Cubies run counter to the physical twist.

The Counter Twist is a simple colour-mod of a proportional Twist Cubies [Frank Schwartz, Eitan Cher] so that the stripes of colour run counter to the physical shape of the twist and over two of the diagonal straight edges.

This example is achieved by razor-saw cutting the centres and half of the corners diagonally on a stickerless example and rearranging the pieces. A similar effect should be possible with stickers on a single-coloured example.

The core puzzle remains a 3x3x3 and this mod does not affect the complexity of the solve.

Edge length: 57 mm
Height: 57 mm
Edge length (diagonal): sqrt(57^2 + 57^2) mm
