I don't know about you guys, but I've never been a fan of the "sexy move". However, I love the move U R U' R, which is basically like the inverse of the sexy move.
Why?
Well in the sexy move [R U R' U'] I find there is WAY to much right hand movement. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I start by gripping the cube with right fingers on top, right thumb on bottom, then rotate right layer up, use right forefinger to perform U, back down with R' without regrip, and then left forefinger for the U', whilst letting the right fingers slide across U face.
Whereas the sexy move inverse [U R U' R'], I start with right thumb on front, right fingers on back, use right forefinger to perform U, then move right layer up without regrip, perform U' with left forefinger whilst letting the right thumb slide, R' without regrip.
I don't know if you guys do it differently - but I much prefer U R U' R'. What's up with this, am I doing the sexy move wrong? It just feels more unnatural to me.
