How to perform the "double flick" ?

[elias94xx]

Hey guys, I just want to know how to turn U2 for example with one fast fingertrick.
I've seen it a lot, but never figured out how exactly it works, because it was too fast.

I can't seem to find any Information about it.
Do you use one or two fingers ?
Thanks for any advices.

Middle finger right after index finger .

for me: index finger - middel finger from same hand
left or right hand depends on grip / alg

This was the fifth result of "fingertricks".

Sry, I'm quite new here, I'll do next time.

left index finger pushes from BUL to FRU

I would highly recommend trying to learn the flick with your left hand. I really regret my choice to not use it, especially if you are an RU dominate cuber.

Also... ignore Kirjava

eidoU2' ftw

go watch yu sajima's OLL parity. EidoU2' is fun and I use it all the time, but its definitely not the fastest technique out there.

 

[Kirjava]

not for big cubes

it's the 'best' technique for some other things

i some how taught myself how to do double flick. i do index then middle finger right after.

It's fast on occasion, not mostly. U2' doubleflick, on the other hand (lol), is invaluable.

I put a howto vid on my channel for OLL parity (U2' galore) - I actually need to upload a fast one, like a 2.0 or something.

That's exactly what I said rowan...

I was mostly just trying to plug my OLL Parity speed
Also you made EidoU2' sound like it wasn't better in some situations than U2 or U2' flick, which it is.

I can't find anything OLL related on your channel. @/\ do you mean 2.0 seconds or version 2.0 of your OLL parity alg?? Either way I would like to see it, as I need to bring my time down from my current 6-8 sec.

Kind of on topic; I can't do a U2/U2'. It's more like UU for right hand and U' U'(the space IS supposed to be there to illustrate that I'm a little slower with my left hand) but I can do left ring/middle finger D2/M2 as one fluid motion.

Oops - I deleted it. Will upload another one soon.

Hold the cube using the ring and little finger with both hands, and practice index-middle U2 U2' U2 U2' for ages, it's the way I trained it.

I'm very good at it with my left hand, but kinda suck with the right.
Doing it with the right hand is sometimes faster, since a lot CFOP algs are based on R moves and you don't need to change your grip I guess.

I do it with my left hand, middle finger following the index.
