Right-handed everything. Never occurred to me to use my non-dominant hand when I started OH, I just mirrored and rotated everything.

Right handed, use left. I think it also has to be taken into account thr the dominant hand is complacent, and teaching the left hand to to new things is a lot easier.

 

[cxinlee]

I'm right-handed, and I use left. However, I got confused and chose the opposite in the poll.

 

[Maccoboy]

i'm ambidextrous and can do OH in either hand but it's faster in my right hand by about a third

 

[brian724080]

I'm ambidextrous left OH solver....

But that's not the point, my point is my left hand is visibly bigger from all my years of playing cello.

Is there such thing as solving 2 cubes one in each hand ? Or is it just too hard or impossible

 

[brian724080]

Theoretically it should be possible...because there are people who can write with both hands at the same time, but writing different stuff.

People have done bld - one in each hand o.O

this video explains that

It's called a symmetry solve. I've seen Harris Chan do one of those.

a youtuber i like called kitslam has videos of him solving a pyraminx in one hand and a dino cube in the other (he also can solve a pyraminx and draw at the same time). he will probably be able to solve two differently scrambled cubes in each hand eventually.

What hand do you use for OH?

Hey guys, I just wondered as I'm getting into OH and noticed that despite being right handed I use my left hand to solve. When I try with my, what I thought would be, stronger hand, it just doesn't feel.. Right? I set up a poll in which I ask if you are right or left handed and what hand do you use to solve OH, would be interested in hearing your opinions about it too!

 

[Mollerz]

Most use their non-dominant hand, since it is a lot easier to mould your weaker hand into doing something that would expected to be easier with your stronger hand. But there are a minority that use their dominant hand for OH solving.

 

[sneaklyfox]

I'm right-handed but use my left hand. It's an obvious choice for me since I'm a violinist plus my left hand is slightly bigger...

 

[IamWEB]

Before I really got into doing OH, I remember practicing U perms with both hands. Neither felt easier or more difficult. However, after getting into practice with left hand (w/ right being my dominant hand), attempting anything with my hand hand feels awkward. Mind over matter, I guess.

 

[speedcuber50]

I haven't voted because I've only just started practicing OH and I haven't chosen a hand yet. For casual OH solves before I've always used my left hand, but I decided I should learn with my right hand since I'm right handed.

Perhaps I should try my left hand again.

 

[ben1996123]

am right handed and use right hand for OH .

 

[Patrick M]

I second ben: right handed and right for oh. But im only like 40sec avg

 

[Ágoston Török]

I belive the main reason of people solving the cube with left hand is brain dominance. The right side of your brain controls your left hand and responsible for spacial recognition. (although I'm right-handed and use my right hand for OH)
