OLL 29 & 30 - The Galaxians, tricked out

I physically smile every time I see one of your fingertricks. You make the sexy move look unsexy. Not only very innovative but also flying the flag of more mature cubers /salute.

On topic: I like both of these, 2 OLLs I have that are sup-2, will be looking into both after comp later this month.

I currently use the following for those two:-
y2 FR'F R2 U' R'U'RU R'F2
r'RU (RUR'U')(R'FRF')M'

rob do you generate all of these, they're so ossimmm
I don't really like the last half of the first one, but I'm using the second one.
Well I generate many OLL/OLLCP algs which I use.

Tip: If you have an adj edge flip OLL, then it's very likely that CE5 will find a short 3gen alg which can be turned into a <RUD> alg which is at least half decent...

I'd do the last U of the first alg with my right index finger similar to doing F' in a J perm with your left index finger (Like Corny)

Thank you for more OLLCPs <3
I actually feel like the 2nd one is *too* fast
Np :)

3 gen for the win? Nice alg.
Yep. Anything that's <RUD>, can be done regripless, and isn't long is probably worth learning IMO.

Yes, I use it.
I also like R U R' U' R U' R' F' U' F R U R' and F R' F R2 U' R' U' R U l' U2.
Yeah I thought it was weird that I haven't come across these algs until I managed to find it on CE5 because it's one the first 4 results which come up. I'm glad to see it's been found before and that it's been <RUD> ified already :p

I've had some sleep, now I can look at these!

@Macky - Ok, I played with it some and doing that first U forehand seems fine. In fact that's probably how most everyone would prefer it. I was (and still am) on a OH-flick binge; they have invaded my entire solve at this point. I put that in there to gain a little bit of hand balance; the right hand felt ever so slightly overloaded doing f R U.

@Robert Yau - You are a fountain of algs! :)

I am weak at <RUD>. You guys and your sub-1 E-Perms, grrr!!! There is also this R Perm going around that feels like the cube is going to fly out of my hand every time I do it: R U' R' U' R U R D R' U' R D' R' U2 R'

Sigh...I will practice these.

@Escher :)

@Selkie: That second one of yours is not bad at all, has a mercifully low move count.

@Everyone else: Thank you for stopping by and having a look!
 
Teller - I've been using that alg for OLL 29 since I first learned OLL. I got it from woner, who still uses it, and I execute it exactly as you do, except I don't do the left index push on the first U. That alg for 30 is cool, but I'm really happy with the one I'm using now. Perhaps I'll go through this thread and lean full OLLCP for these cases lol.

I'm not surprised...you always have the good stuff.
 
Teller: I used to be quite weak at doing D' with my left ring finger. After practising the famous <RUD> E perm a lot, I can finally sometimes execute an E perm sub 1 (only just). It does quite weird to me at first, I have to say.

Hey Robert,you got any nice RUD alg for this case?

,I hate doing F R U R' U' F' U F R U R' U' F' for this

Yeah me too. I couldn't find anything better than this.

Forte's alg is pretty sub-1-able(with a slightly different way of doing the alg).

Btw Rob, I sub-1ed DiagAS(2 more) :). Can you please generate a better alg for that pi case?
