My limits

[Kyle Barry]

If i have a 25 second two hand average currently, what would you guys say is my one-hand limit?

 

[hdskull]

There is no limit.

 

[nitrocan]

I agree. (message too short)

 

[ccchips296]

lol there is no limit (in particular)...take lofty as an example...his OH times are pretty much as fast as his 2H (though he never practices 2H)

 

[Pi-Chan]

The same...
Sometimes I'm with two hands as fast as with one hand;
I got 24.5 with two hands and 24.7 with one hand...

So I would also say: There is no limit

When someone like Lofty competes officially would it be against the rules for him to use OH during the normal rubik's competition? The rules don't specify to use 2 hands...

No, it's not, but when you go the other way, it is.

 

[Lofty]

Not even with me is it actually faster to cube with OH... people just joked that way because my times were so close to one another. Just look at my results from nationals 15.9 2H and 22.04 OH averages.
If you practice only OH there is no reason you cant get your times to be exactly the same as your 2H ones.

I've done that . my first OH DNF was a 2h mistake. lol

 

[StachuK1992]

lol, that sucks

 

[Kian]

i'm just waiting for a cuber who literally only has one hand to dominate one hand cubing...

[SARCASM]
45 minutes, and not a second better. If you got to a 24 second average 2H, I'd say you could cut a few minutes off your OH time, but otherwise, using my magical abilities to see your skills and fully understand your potential I'm going to put 41 minutes as the best time you could ever get OH.
[/SARCASM]

...Why do people even ask such questions?

 

[Kyle Barry]

Alright, chill, just wondering what an approximation might be, maybe someone who has about my average with 2 hands who practices one hand also would say what he had as an average, its not a life altering question, just interested.

 

[Ton]

Well there is no rule

But I estimate one-handed time is about 1.5 to 2 time above 2 handed times. So you should do a 37.5 - 50 sec with OH

 

[AvGalen]

Beginning 2-handers start at 2 or 3 times their normal times
After some practice that quickly drops to about 1.5 to 1.7 times their normal times

The reason Dene was annoyed is because your question is phrased badly. You are not interested in your limits, you are interested in what a "normal" time would be for you.

 

[Dene]

Lol, we all love taking Dene too seriously don't we? I just do not see any point in the question, especially with as little background knowledge as supplied. I mean, why not practise and find out for yourself how you do? It doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever (although then again, I've always struggled to make sense of a lot of things that people (society) do, I'm still sure I'm an alien).

 

[Neutrals01]

I am sad that I could not cube OH, OH around 2 min~3min, very hard to twist. Not sure is it because of my cube or is it because of me.

 

[Kian]

i'm sure he is practicing for himself and he just wanted to see what difference a number of other people had between their 2h and oh times. maybe he should have used the words normal instead of limit, sure. either way, there's really no reason to be so callous about it, if you think it's a stupid question just ignore it. people are too often berated on this board, it's very childish.

There are cubers who can only use one hand, but they're not dominating right now.
