Hello, today I have decided to test out a thread like this. I want to find out...
1. Who has the fastest U-perms in the world
2. What algs they use (either the cycle facing you or away)
So if you want to prove to the rest of the world that you do have the fastest U-perm avg. in the world, post a video response with the alg and avg. this goes for U.a and U.b (just post 2 differant vids or one vid with both combined clearly stating which is which.
RULES
1. you may start and end timer with wrists.
2. NO turning before start of timer or after.
and thats about it. avg. of 5 guys and good luck!
PS. if this works well I will post the other perms but individually (like 1 week gap each) to avoid cramming the vids section.
So all you haved to do is waste 5 or so minutes to prove that you are the best IN THE WORLD!

Clockwise: R2 U R U R' U' R' U' R' U R'
Average: 1.56

Counter-Clockwise: R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2
Average: 1.12 seconds (worked very hard for that average :D)
 
Mr. Akkersdijk will win with U perms, I think. (only my guess).
Mr. Akkersdijk can do all edge-only-PLL's very fast using [MU] 2 gen. He is also very fast with [RU] 2-gen U-Perms. But I think others, like a certain Mr. Yu (what's in a name) are faster on the U-PLL.

Mr. Nakajima ;) Yu is his first name.

By the way, are there any other fast cubers who use MU 2-gen for their U perms? So far I've only heard of Erik doing this.

I'm not a fast cuber, but I can do one of the M U perms at either sub 2 or very close. I use cubetimer.com for my times, and it only stops the time when the spacebar goes up, not when I press down.

I've got several recorded 1.11 and 1.12's on cubetimer.

However, I still use the other U perms in my solves because I can't do U' with the grip I use for M2 turns. >.<

I can do this clockwise U perm (M2 U' M' U2 M U' M2) sub 1. I can get .9x pretty easily and my best single is .84.
 
I feel like I'm the only one in the world who uses
R U2 R U R U R2 U' R' U' R2 alg :(

I think I'm going to start using the other ones :/
 
Clockwise: R2 U R U R' U' R' U' R' U R'
(.85), (.89), .88, .85, .87 = .87 average

Counter Clockwise: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
(.86), .86, .84, (.82) .82 = .84 average

If it's not too much trouble, could you post a video of how you hold the cube for the clockwise one? I'm pretty sure that I'm doing it "wrong" – my best times are barely sub-2, and I don't think I can do it much faster since I have to regrip several times.
 
whoa. same here alexc. i do the same one and get sub 1 with it. my best is .93 tho :(. i guess i just need more practise :P
 
ok, I know a lot of different U Perms, but the ones I mostly use are:

clockwise: R' U R' U' R' U' R' U R U R2
avg of 12: 01.08 secs (SD: 0.08; best: 0.98; worst: 01.33)

counter-clockwise: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
avg of 12: 0.97 (SD: 0.05; best: 0.85; worst: 01.30)
 
Clockwise: R2 U R U R' U' R' U' R' U R'
(.85), (.89), .88, .85, .87 = .87 average

Counter Clockwise: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
(.86), .86, .84, (.82) .82 = .84 average

try doing R2' in the beginning, fast U after it, the RUR'U' trigger, R'U' and then afterwards do the R'UR' very fast:)

average: 1.40 (i suck at PLL fast; I can barely sub-1 a time attack:()
