New Z perm?

[mynameiswillem]

im not sure if this is a new Z perm or not but i just "found" it one day by messing with OLLs. the algorithm is:

R' U' l' U l F' U R F' U' L' U L F

its a combination of two OLL algorithms that i got from cubestation.co.uk (case #45 and case #38). it swaps the F and R edges and L and B edges. so if you use those OLLS you already know it or if dont, you learn 2 OLLs at the same time. its a good algorithm i think for a PLL and if you dont mind some work from the left hand. but if you guys already knew that Z perm then im sorry for taking up a spot on the first page.

oh and even though i joined like 1.5 years ago im just now starting to browse regularly.

and if this thread needs more to be a productive thread, lets talk about OH solving! my pb is 45s with my left hand and i never have really practiced before but im starting to now. and what is the percentage of speedcubers that can even solve one handed?

No - It just messes up the cube and keeps a 1 x 2 x 2 block intact... - A pretty crappy alg.

*1 x 2 x 3 block.

5 moves shorter and 2 gen. Your Z perm is certainly interesting but I'm not sure if it's very practical.

I like OH. It's tasty.

So are small kittens?

ON topic - I don't see it as a practical alg. It feels really awkward when I try do it.

ehh i dont like slice moves. i might make a youtube video of it and post it here.

 

[Radcuber]

I swear I'm actually a total idiot, or that alg. is still crappy cos it still just messed up the cube.... -.- And @a small kitten I hope you're joking about being a satanist. Yes that's right, satanists DON'T deserve capital letters.

Yup I'm an idiot.

Try: M2 U2 M' U M2 U M2 U M'

I used to hate Z perms, but when I came up with this one, it's one of my favourites. I've been able to do it as fast as 1.02 seconds.

Oh yeah, that's true. But it's still really good.

on another note: do you listen to music while you cube? i do. i think it helps my subconscious focus and lets me focus on cubing better. i find myself singing and i didnt notice it. what music do you listen to? The Doors ftw.

 

[a small kitten]

I listen to music all the time but you should also practice without it. They don't allow listening to music at comps so you should know how to focus without music.

 

[Radcuber]

Err there's sortta already a thread for this "Favourite (music) artist" I started it ^_^ And @ a small kitten I really hope you aren't really a satanist.
