Can be clockwise or anticlockwise.

For double-180 turns I tend to grab with my thumb and index/middle finger and twist my wrist but I believe this should be a bad way since I have never seen anyone do it. It requires regripping.

For the U2, do you do double flip (especially for U2 R2) or use the thumb to some extent or other ways?

When it goes counter clockwise as a U2', I use my thumb in conjunction with my left index finger.
For U2 clockwise, I use my middle finger and index finger in one motion.

However, for some algorithms, it flows better for me to double "flick" with my left index, basically doing U' twice in quick succession.

Do the 2 continuous finger followers. For R2 I just use my wrist.

That's sometimes how I do it.

About Cubes=Life's ZB journal, I agree.

And look at this. "Forum noobs always criticize the method, but just like real life critics they can't compare.
They're inadequate anyway."
Cubes=Life, was that meant to refer to me?:(
 
Ah, sorry for the off topic.

But yeahhh, when I get older, my mind wont be fast anymore.
My hands wont be as fast anymore. The cells won't be at their prime anymore. T_T

It really is sad. )';

Oh no, not you, haha.
You're cool man~

Sigh, no! I will never stop cubing!!!!! lol. One of the reasons I got so into it was to get over a terrible break up, and they got me out and they've made my life better! Nothing will ever beat cubes. Not even age.
 
I do the U2 double flick with my right index finger and middle finger. Then instantly I do R'2 with my right thumb and other fingers to support it.

For R2 U2, I reach around and do R'2 and then follow through with a U2 double finger flick.
