Look Ahead, different methods.

Look Ahead, different/best methods

I've found methods on the internet, and I'm wondering if there are any other methods to improve look ahead for F2L.

#1) Metronome
#2) Do the F2L in your head before you execute it.
#3) Go slow and look ahead
#4) Aircube

What other methods did you guys use/ know of that work really well?
And what methods do you guys think are best to use Look Ahead with?

#1) Use a tick timer < forgot name.

Metronome.

And I can't think of anything else. I personally I just used slow turning to get to my current state.

P.S. When the title says "Look ahead, different methods," I naturally assumed it would be "which speedsolving method is easiest to have good look ahead with?"

Thanks, I'll add what you thought aswell.

yes I also find this article extremely useful - it has both great confirmations of what I've either been doing or what I think I should be doing and also (even more) great tips for lookahead and good ways to practise

Wtf is aircube?

 

[Chrisalead]

aircube is I think the same than airguitar, pretend to solve a cube whithout actually have one in hand. I've tried this some times and it's fun to see that when i do an aircube, i do it whithout pauses (perfect lookahead) but with my current speed and imagining a cross, 4 pairs, an oll and a pll, juste like a real solve, and i got times around 12-14s. I do those times for real when i have no pauses on my lookahead so aircubing is quite interesting isn't it ?

Eh. Sometimes when I go to bed right after cubing I run through imaginary solutions in my head...keeps me up all night. That's the same thing, isn't it?

I don't know, what are you doing with your hands?
