Backhanded OH flicks are changing what it means to be a "good alg."

Does it really look like a Galaxian? Does any OLL really look like anything? But it did put me in the mind of it, and I'm not the first person to name it such, so.

Nice. Interesting to see another old algorithm revived that fell out of use years ago.

I didn't know about this alg. I don't see why you need OH flick here though. This is already beastly with a standard fingering.

I'll compare these with RwR'URU'Rw'U2R2B'R'BR' and the mirror.

Ok, Macky is commenting...I have truly arrived now. :)

The OH flick is not "necessary," it is DESIRED. OH is not a tax, it is a headwind.

Gmail tells me (through my email to Jeremy Fleischman) that I first came across your video on February 9, 2010. =)

Put another way: In ping-pong you had better have a strong back-hand!

I agree, but I feel ball coming right to my dominant hand in this case. It could just be my old-fashioned training.

Anyone?... I like them because you can do them without regripping and the right hand starts and stops in standard grip. I find them quite easy to sub1.

Thank you for more OLLCPs <3

I actually feel like the 2nd one is *too* fast

EDIT: Also really nice execution teller :) I dislike index flicks across from the F face but I'll see if I can learn to do it for you :P
