Fast algorithm to flip an edge

[stevecho816]

I found this really fast algorithm to flip an edge when a corner is oriented


R U' R' U R' F R F' R' F R F' R U' R'

Maybe posted in the wrong place, but that is still a decent alg; funnily enough I was looking for a better alg for this case myself last night...you should update the wiki (F2L case 38).
Cheers

I like it, it's very fingertrick friendly

Why didn't you guys post the A Collection of Algorithms suggestion when Rowe Hessler created a similar topic?

Because he's a pro wrestler.



On topic: I use R2 U2 F R2 F' U2 R' U R'

Teller has a video with a cool fingertrick for it.

I currently use:

(R' F R F') R U' R' U R U' R' U2 R U' R'

Same amount of moves and I think mine might be a little faster. I've seen some better algs for this case, but I'm stuck in my ways.

 

[Brest]

I use: (R' F R F') R' U2 R2 U R2 U R

 

[Ranzha]

R2 U R' U' Rw' U2 R U R U' R2' U2' M'.
I posted this recently in another such thread.

 

[teller]

I use: (R' F R F') R' U2 R2 U R2 U R

Your alg is powerful but your sig is even better, Mr. Reconstruction!

That is high praise coming from you, Mr. Fingertrick! Although to be fair, I'm sure that alg is fairly common.

I use (RU2R'U)*2 y L'U'L. Fast, but does have a rotation.

 

[Selkie]

For:-

I also use (R' F R F') R U' R' U R U' R' U2 R U' R'

and drop the (R'FRF') for the next case:-

which then becomes R U' R' U R U' R' U2 R U' R'

I used to use different for both but they were two cases I optimised a month or so ago.

Interesting to note that I have optimised these for the FR slot but still use mirrors/inverses of the R'U2R2UR2UR based alg for FL, BR, BL slots.

I'm surprised nobody has posted this yet.

R U' R' d' R' U2 R U R' U2 R

It's almost 2 gen and relatively short.

edit - fail, d not d'.

 

[Stefan]

I'm surprised nobody has posted this yet.

R U' R' d' R' U2 R U R' U2 R

It's almost 2 gen and relatively short.

And as a bonus, it doesn't work.

 

[antoineccantin]

And as a bonus, it doesn't work.

He probably means: R U' R' d R' U2 R U R' U2 R

 

[~Adam~]

Sorry. Yeah, R U' R' d R' U2 R U R' U2 R.

 

[Stefan]

Yeah I know, it just keeps annoying me to see wrong algs and I like to plug alg.garron a lot.
I actually use that alg... well, a variation from my period when I tried cross-on-left:
z U' R U l' U R2' U' R2 U l' f' (the f' with the left thumb)
Also nice when it's the BL or FR slot, just needs a different but good cube rotation at the start.

 

[Dacuba]

I only use (R U R' U')*2 R (right thumb) U' (more right thumb action) R' and normal insert
I also use the mirror for left
