I was messing around lately and found 2 Z-perms. They are not that usefull for speedcubing but it's quite funny since I didn't use anything but a cube for it to find.
The first one I found while messing with M moves. I did: M2 U' M2 U M2 and saw that I had solved the Z-perm but messed up some centres and fixed that with the well known alg: E2 M' E2 M. So: M2 U' M2 U M2 E2 M' E2 M is the first one. You can also first mess up the centers and then to the M2 U' M2 U M2 part to solve, it looks a bit cooler, it's not even that slow actually.
The second one I just found 2 minutes ago. I looked how long it would take to restore the cube again after doing on a solved cube R2U'. So I did R2U'R2'U'R2U'R2'U'R2U'R2' and saw that after y M' U2 M you also solved the Z perm xD (of course I do R2 U' R2' for fingertrick friendly-ness). So the 2nd alg: R2U'R2'U'R2U'R2'U'R2U'R2' y M'U2M, or instead of y M'U2M: FB' R2 F'B to have no slice moves.
