I need to improve my E perm! I got it at least four times and butchered it every time! Anyone know a few good algs for the E perm? I think I need a better one.

(x') R U' R' D R U R' D' R U R' D R U' R' D' (x)

Mine is very similar but from the other side. Finger tricks could be easier? I'm not sure how you're performing yours.
(x) R' U R D' R' U' R D R' U' R D' R' U R D

You could always look on the wiki for different algorithms too.

I found a good example from Feliks. Watch the second execution for the exact way I do it.

Which alg are you using now? Are you looking for 1H or 2H?

for 2H I'm using x(unsure if its prime or not) U R' U' L U R U' R2 U' R U L U' R' U M2

I use my right index finger for D' but you could always use a reverse flick with the left ring finger like Feliks does in his video instead. Either will work. Best thing I like about this algorithm is that there are no regrips!
Algorithm: (x) R' U R D' R' U' R D R' U' R D' R' U R D

Of course both can be done. But I strongly suggest you to switch to left ring. It might hurt a little in the beginning. But its very helpful. D' with left ring is helpful not only in E perm, but also makes your N perm and superman(headlights) oll considerably faster . I used to do E perm for almost a year with right ring, and my best was like 1.5-1.6 . I switched to left ring , and it took not much time to become much faster (even got sub1 singles) with it

Which N perm/alg are you referring to?

[Akash Rupela]

Which N perm/alg are you referring to?

(z) U R' D R2 U' R (D' U) R' D R2 U' R D' (z')

I mean using left ring for the last D' , Even if you dont use this N perm, practising the left-ring fingertrick is worth it

wow it never occured to me to use the same finger to do D and D'. It's a little awkward but I think I'll be able to master it with some time! I'm also going to try the index for D' to see which I can do faster. thanks
