how many people are left handed O.H.

[randomness...]

I think, at least from my experience; most people use left because it allows you to do <RU> algs very easily, and most algs people have learned will be righty (consider all the standard PLLs for example, it might be annoying to relearn righty algs to lefty just for OH).

It helps increase TPS if you use mostly RU algs.

facts
but what that have to do with the question?

 

[caleb_g]

i dont see why anyone would use right hand personally

i dont see why anyone would use right hand personally

simply because it's natural for them

simply because it's natural for them

That's the reason I use my right hand, I'm right-handed and it feels so weird to try and solve with my left hand.

 

[caleb_g]

i'm not saying people shouldn't i'm just saying i dont understand it myself

you understand that some people use left hand to write and others use right hand?
it's the same case, you use the hand that is more natural for you

in OH if a person is right handed probably he will use the left hand to solve the cube because it's the hand he holds the cube 2H
in some cases people use the same hand he writes as @SpeedCubeLegend17 said

but you'll use what you feel that is more confortable for you

I can only write with my left hand but i do literally everything else with my right, including OH

I am right handed but my father is left handed, so I grew up using the mouse with my left hand because it was the side of the keyboard he would let the mouse, and it's pretty awkward to use it with my right hand
I can use the mouse with both hands but it just feels so weird to use it with my right hand

 

[randomness...]

wow theres alot of lefties.
i get what you're saying about the mouse because my brother did the same thing

I was thinking, if you write with your right hand, it doesn't mean you will use your right hand for everything

there are people that write with one hand but has a dominant foot for soccer for example (left or right)

also you can have a dominant stance for skateboarding. I am "regular", I put my left foot in front and ride facing right
other people ride "goofy", facing left, right foot on front ... if you want to know your stance, experiment removing your shoes and sliding on the floor with your socks. you will tend to put a certain foot front, if it's the left you are regular, if it's the right you are goofy :3
but that is not related to your dominant hand to write or even dominant foot to kick, etc

interesting, right?

Lefty's the Left Hand Store | Everything for the Left-Hander

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I never did OH until I broke a finger on my right hand. This is the main reason I've always done OH left handed, and in hindsight I'm happy that's the case because I think for my algs in general left hand is better (mostly RUF(D)).

 

[Swagrid]

Most algs for 2H are righty dominant as most people are righty. Hence, when people move to OH, they want to use the same righty dominant algs - which is much easier lefty.

 

[randomness...]

i can mirror Algs without thought.
