fast way to do the U perm ? (a.k.a. F perm)

The thread title alone should tell you that this guy is probably a beginner. The guy wants to do an F perm. The site he's using lists it as a U perm (so the site is wrong), which is why he's referring to it as a U-perm (and since he's probably a beginner, he thinks it's the same thing). If you looked at the alg he posted in his second post, you'll see it's an F perm.

Dude, your F perm sucks. Here's a nicer one:

R' U2 R' d' R' F' R2 U' R' U R' F R U' F"

P. S. -- Idk how to quote. the quote message in reply button doesn't work. How do you make it work?

R' U2 R' d' R' F' R2 U' R' U R' F R U' F

This is the one I use. It's amazingly fast.

 

[Yes We Can!]

R' U2 R' d' R' F' R2 U' R' U R' F R U' F

This is the one I use. It's amazingly fast.

I also use this. Very pleased with it.

But I don't understand the title of this thread:
How is a U-Perm also known as a F-Perm?!

I don't know, but by the way, how do you do a facepalm?

Click the button for it, or type a colon followed by "fp."

Yes I think we figured that out about 5 days ago when he first posted.

I personally use Nakaji's F perm and I perform it the same way: U' R' U R U' R'2 F' U' F U R (r) U R' U' R2 pretty quick

That alg doesn't work. Check for your typo

Or learn japanese notation. (r)=x, (u2)=y2 etc

hmm.. I use U' R' U R U' R'2 F' U' F U R (r) U R' U' R2 and I can only get sub 3 seconds with a lot of struggling lol

Oh, have you seen his execution I can get it sub-2, I could do better, but it's my 3rd worst right now in PLL. Here's the vid of the execution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8aQglVoaO8&feature=related

i'm using :
R' U R U' R2 F' U' F U R F R' F' R2 U' is it just me or is it the alg ?

edit: if it helps i'm using PLL's from http://thesixsides.com

Instead. use:

R' U R U' R2 F' U' F U R U' x' R2 U' R' U

Basically the same but with an easier ending.
Do the normal fingertrick for the first four moves.

Then, grip your cube so your thumb is on the D-side and your other fingers are on U. Do the R2. Your ring finger should be in a perfect position to do a F'. Without regripping, do the U' with your left index finger, then do the F with your right thumb (if you didn't regrip, your hand should be in the right position to do this.) Regrip, Do the U R U' x', regripping with your left hand but just turning your right hand with the cube. Your right wrist will be sort of "wound up" so just unwind it to do the R2, then finish with the U' R' U trigger.

Hopefully you understood that, but it's what I do and it's one of my fastest PLL's.
