Erik Akkersdijk's method

[f2lftw]

As he is the World record holder(well done Erik) i wondered what Method he used in the 7:08 world record was a PLL skip used ??
I wanted to know because i would like to learn the same method.

Go to his site, "erik's flying colours" (google it)

I am pretty sure it is full fridrich, but not 100% sure about it.
I am sure the next person to post will be sure.

 

[Dene]

He uses Fridrich of course. And how do you "use a PLL skip"?? You get one and it's lucky. If it wasn't a skip you wouldn't be using it, and if you are using it it can't be a skip. Deary me...

Well you can always choose to use an algorithm because you think/know it could cause a skip. That would kind of be "using" a skip, but not really.

Dene i mean when he got 7:08 did he GET a PLL skip lol ^^

 

[f2lftw]

i already now fridrich . not alot of the algs
now i have to beat 40 seconds lol =(

I'm not 100% sure, but I think he did.

Yes, he did get a PLL skip when he achieved the 7.08 second world record.

I am pretty sure Erik also uses some CLL/ELL algorithms and other than that, he uses Fridrich.

 

[soccerking813]

I would guess he did. It is hard to get that fast without skipping some stuff.

 

[PeterNewton]

for the method he uses, it is either fridrich with extra cll/ell knowledge, or fridrich with a different extension or a completely different advanced method.

i say this because he said this once: "Jason man, congrats! I'll post some things when I know big parts of my new method too"
he posted it on jason baum's zbf2l update a while ago. i duno, maybe he uses this mysterious method or maybe he discarded it.

oh errr sorry. i heard somewhere it was an ll skip, and the video looked like an ll skip, until i paused it a few minutes ago. my bad.

It says at the end, PLL skip

Edit: my bad didn't see the above link

 

[krazedkat]

He said he got a U2 LL....

 

[Samlambert]

He said he got a U2 LL....

No he didn't you fail. U2 PLL

 

[Gparker]

lucas garron has a whole backtrack of the solve. the scramble, f2l. his oll was the F R U R' U' twice L shape one, then a U2 for a pll.

His method is full fridrich with some tricks to it that he found out himself

 

[krazedkat]

If it was the L shape it'd make more sense to do F U R U' R' F'.... That'd take one less alg.

 

[Samlambert]

If it was the L shape it'd make more sense to do F U R U' R' F'.... That'd take one less alg.

He meant Small L algs not T, learn your algs :/ Oh and also calling us idiots because you mistype REALLY isn't the thing to do.

 

[Gparker]

yes thank you ^^ thats what i meant, there is an L shaped alg where you do that trigger twice, and im not an idiot !!
