U CC = 1.63, 1.21, 1.16, 1.66, 1.25 = 1.36
U CCW = 1.57, 1.35, 1.69, 1.41, 1.76 = 1.56
A CC = 1.47, 1.57, 1.51, 1.28, 1.28 = 1.42
A CCW = 1.50, 1.68, 1.97, 1.56, 1.58 = 1.61
H = 1.48, 1.46, 1.65, 1.74, 1.63 = 1.59
T = 1.73, 1.47, 1.78, 1.85, 1.59 = 1.70
Ra = 1.93, 1.85, 1.86, 1.84, 1.93 = 1.88
Ja = 1.73, 1.64, 1.55, 1.63, 1.72, = 1.66
Jb = 1.89

I'm learning some different PLLs and different ways to execute other PLLs so I will get faster at the other ones later.


What do you CC mean? If it means counter-clockwise, then was does CCW mean?
Sorry I'll change CC into CW.
CW = Clockwise
CCW = Counter-clockwise
 
U CW = 1.63, 1.21, 1.16, 1.66, 1.25 = 1.36
U CCW = 1.57, 1.35, 1.69, 1.41, 1.76 = 1.56

A CCW = 1.50, 1.68, 1.97, 1.56, 1.58 = 1.61

T = 1.73, 1.47, 1.78, 1.85, 1.59 = 1.70
Ra = 1.93, 1.85, 1.86, 1.84, 1.93 = 1.88

Not bad! It seem odd that your cw's are faster than ccw's I think for most people it's the other way around. I did all averages of 12, I don't do averages of 5. Actually, I probably did each alg at least 50 times that day to get my averages. I'm going try again using the backwards order next time, so I can hope to start fresh with a sub-2 bad R, E, and N perms hopefully.

Thank You.

Yes back when I average 2+ second for A and U permutations, my CCWs were faster :D. But then I learned some new algorithms for the As, and got faster at my Us. Also the CCW U I just learned a new way of doing it that day, so I wasn't too used to it.

I did averages of 5 because I didn't have enough time for 12.
 
13 for me, these are my bests:


U' 1.11
U 1.16(edit: 1.12)
J 1.34
T 1.39
A' 1.68(edit: 1.58)
A 1.71(edit: 1.65)
H 1.74(edit: 1.48)
J' 1.80(edit: 1.47)
Gc 1.86
Y 1.94(edit: 1.79)
Gb 1.97
R 1.98
Z 1.98(edit: 1.75)
V 3.11 i need a new alg(edit: got a new alg, 1.83)


sup-2s:

Gd 2.11
Ga 2.24
R' 2.43
F 3.23 also need a new alg
N's 4.00ish, i use conjugated J-perms
E 3.97 i dont know this one, i use 2 T-perms


this is part of the reason i why have a 10-12 sec f2l and still suck... 8-10 sec LL...

Wow....im a failure. Ive been sub20 with absolutely terrible PLLs. Any tips on improving??

Sub-2:
UU
T
JJ

Everything else is sub3 DX

Practice them to improve....

I practice my PLLs a lot so some of them are fast. I usually do it in the car when I get tired of F2L or I can't see the cube. I just practiced them a couple of hours ago in the night time! :D

Your T is really fast! V and F, I use the standard alg and average around 2.2 seconds and some sub-2 singles. They aren't slow. For E, you can do the 2 OLL's, that's actually what most of the common E algs are. They are 2 8-move commutators that cycle 3 corners. I use:
r2 U r2 D x' (R U' R' U)3 x D' r2 U' r2 (this is a conjugate of a BLD 2 2cycle)
or
x'U'RUL'U'R'URw2UR'U'Rw'FRF' (2 of my favorite OLLs, this one is fastest for me)
N, I use the simple (L'UR'U2LU'R)*2 and reflections. It is OK, nakajima does it fast (watch his PLL video), but I pop a lot on it. Perhaps I'll learn the RFU alg from Macky.

I think my f2l must be ridiculously fast. like ridiculously. my PLLs/2Look OLL are dire. i suppose thats kind of good for the future, because the LL is easier than the f2l to speed up. i think i have about 5 that are less than 2. not including recognition. i think tis PLL trainer time.

wow i didnt really think my T was that fast. well considering ive learned it back in march as my first non-edge-cylce PLL, i guess im experienced with it. its also one of the adj swap algs i use for 2x2. my best T on 2x2 1.27.

my V is really dumb, i got it from some random page. its R' U2 R U2 L U' R' U r' F r U' R U r'
im pretty sure my F is the standard, i just need to learn how to fingertrick it better.

also, that bold E-perm just scrambles my cube.
 
E perm:

x'U'RUL'U'R'URw2UR'U'L'URU'

Just check on simulator.

So it was right except last R should be Rw.

x'U'RUL'U'R'URw2UR'U'Rw'FRF'

Just 2 OLLs connected, you could see yourself completing one OLL as you do the Rw2.
