Can't do fingertricks?

[clifford2704]

Help please, I have trouble with my left fingers, I am right handed, my right handed finger tricks are quite fast but my left are just horrible, any suggestions? I practised a lot but not much diff =/

hi
look at your right hand movements in slow motion while doing an alg, force your left hand to do the same in slow motion, gradually increase speed
whenever you do it wrong, do it slower. practice is important, but correct practice is more. eventually, you will be able to do it

Don't worry; keep doing it slowly... You will eventually get it. It's hard at first...

Simply slow solve over and over.

Use L moves

I'm lefthanded, and my lefthand fingers hate U2 flick....

i guess i should do L sexy more often

Start doing U', U2, and F turns with your left hand during solves. It will feel really unnatural and your times will start going up because you'll have to start finger tricking more slowly. But if you force yourself to use your left hand more and more for finger tricks they'll eventually become much more natural. Also, take a look at your OLL and PLL algs, start drilling them but using your left hand for the fingertricks in them whenever possible. Both of these things helped me a lot.

Okay, what I do is I do only the U' and U2 with my left hand. Everything else with my right. So all you have to do is just get used to the U's.

Do some solves scrambling and solving with <L,U>.

Do OH solve with your left hand.
