Hand dominance for MU algorithms

[Tigerninja]

I'm just wondering which hand you use for the M moves in MU algorithms.

I'm left handed, but I'm doing right handed algs. I do my M moves with the right hand and the U moves with my left hand in MU algs.

In the poll, I would be "Right handed, right hand M moves", even though I'm actually left handed.

Lefties that are conforming to right handed algs rise up

 

[Tigerninja]

It's nice to use the dominant hand for OH, though.
When I'm doing R moves, I'm using my left wrist (Lw instead of R), so there's at least some leftie left in me.

i'm right handed, use right hand for M, and i main roux

I'm right handed and prefer the left hand for M, but I also do some algs where it makes more sense to use the right hand for M. For a Z or H perm I'll always use my left hand for M, but depending on which U perm, I'll use my left or right hand depending on which hand is more suited for the U moves. I even have one alg where I switch partway through: M' U' M U' M' U2 M U M' U M.

I'm ambidextrous but use right hand for RUF and right hand for M moves

 

[OtaMota]

I am right-handed, I find Left handed M moves more comfortable

I am right handed with lefty M moves and righty U moves (U' flick instead of push, although I'm better at lefty U flick/push).
But I'm also cross-handed, not ambidextrous, meaning I do things like brush my teeth and use a fork with my left hand even though I'm right handed.

I'm left handed but have used right handed algs since I started cubing, I'm also cross handed, and I use rightly M moves and lefty U moves in this case.

I also brush my teeth with my don-nominant hand!

I also brush my teeth with my don-dominant hand!

did you mean don-nominant hand?

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I think I use my right had for MU algs if and only if there is not more than 1 M2 in the alg. I'm right handed.

Same case for me. I thought I was the only weird Rouxer around.

depends on da alg, for a H perm I do da M2 with right ring finger then left ring finger
for comms I do whatever is easiest

i roux ... i mean, i KNEW you were going to say that

 

[Tigerninja]

for a H perm I do da M2 with right ring finger then left ring finger

Wait... what finger do you do the U* with?

 

[Curunír]

I use my index finger for all da U moves
not saying it's good but thats what I do

 

[Lord_Oscar]

I’m right handed.
I use my right index finger for U and U2 moves, and my left index finger for U' moves.

For M moves, I use my right ring finger, and for M' moves, I also use my right ring finger

When I'm doing R moves, I'm using my left wrist (Lw instead of R), so there's at least some leftie left in me.

I just realised; that's why I hate RU algs so much for 2H.

Also, I do the RUS U-perms.
