Are my fingers too small for OH?

[Tetris Cube]

I've got a loose enough cube, I think, that's not a problem. I can do U' and R just fine OH, but I can't do U without rotating to save my life. I push on on the left sticker of ULB, but once I fully extend my finger, the up layer isn't turned all the way. I can push on ULF, but it's difficult and requires a regrip. I have a hard time doing R' too. Should I just do z rotations? It feels really slow to do that, but it works... not very well though.

I think it's safe to say her hands are too small for OH. That's why she has such a slow time. If her hands were big enough for OH, she'd probably be at least sub-30.

Edit: Maybe this just means that Tetris Cube needs to wear pink pajamas.

I think the pink pajamas give too much of an advantage.

She moves her hand around a lot, I can't tell how she's turning the cube. It might be that she's doing a lot of rotations.

i have the same problem with OH solving, but i think it's just because i never practice.

Yeah I was just about to post that link. I think I might get one of those with my next c4y order as well. My hands are definitely not small, but I think it would be fun to try it out.

Yea, for some reason I really want that cube. Definitely going to order one or two. I suck at OH but I have big hands. I don't expect that cube to make my OH any better but it would be fun.

It's only 2 dollars, awesome. There's no other cubes I want to buy right now, so I think I'll just get it by itself. Air shipping makes the total around 6 dollars, which is alright with me.

I would think about adding a regular sized DS to the order too, but that jacks up the shipping. Plus I only have 6.50 in my paypal, so I can't buy more until I go to the mall and get another prepaid card.

Does it turn like a regular DS? Not that I know how a DS turns like anyway... but I hear they're good for OH.
