G Perm execution

[enigmahack]

Very simple question here, so I won't waste much time:

Have any of you/do any of you use anything you might consider "fancy" that helps the G perms flow a little better? I have them pretty quick, and they feel "OK" but I've seen some people execute them in "unusual" ways without regripping but seems extremely fast.

Do any of you have examples of this or execution tips to make them a little smoother/faster?

I think it would be cool to have a G-perm fingertrick contest.
People could submit youtube videos for a week or so then a poll could be set up.
I personally only know a finger trick for 1/4 g perms. The g perms are some of my slowest right now.

If you use the standard G's, have you tried switching between R2 and R2'? Usually one direction is better than the other.

I use alternate G's, and I'm pretty happy with them, fun:

Teller, that's EXACTLY what I was looking for

Thanks so much for that!

I think Stefan Huber's fingertricks are awesome.

Very sexy, what do you use for the g perm a and c?

Kickflip did this wacky lefty G that I liked, but I couldn't figure out what he was doing:

Coincidentally, I just filmed a G-Perm video and am uploading it now.


Here it is:

The first alg is the same as Stefan Huber's, but the rest are different. I can do them all in ~1.3 or so.
