Have a good cube and such, I use ZZ, stuck at sub 35 consistently, how does one handed look ahead work?
Any tips for getting faster at OH ZZ or ZZ in general which I can incorporate into my solves? I avg about ~35
 
Exceptions: U, A, G, maybe E, maybe T, maybe one R
U perms? MU PLLs OH?
G perms too? RUF algs when you use your right hand? Why would you do that!?
i totally don't use RUF G perm for OH even though I use my right hand
I use COLL so...
I know OH plls from Antoine and Neil and Phil
Oh, then learn OH COLLs :p (if you don't already)
 
Dont bother with oh. Just do 3x3 roux. Less events: more improvement.

Don't listen to this guy.
Doing other events is good (and more chances for comp podiums!)

On topic, practicing turning is the best thing that has helped me I think. Even if you're doing other stuff like watching tv just hold a cube in your hand and practice all your fingertricks. This builds tps and I find it pretty useful.

yes, this was a very essential part in making my OH better since my lookahead was so far ahead of my tps ability.
 
I think I'll try this with combination of Phil Yu's OH exercises
Thanks fingers usually get tired.
EDIT: TDM I already know OH COLLs I use them for 2H Roux, some of them. Gonna try to find easier CMLL cases for the crappy COLL cases. I also use it to optimize EO in 2H
