    I think I have a better finger trick and I have been using this for quite some time: you can stay in home grip and use index pinch for f and use the third finger to complete f' while regripping your hand. Probably this will help.

    I knew this f R f' insert for a while now, but these new applications are really interesting! Thanks for the interesting situations, Brody!
    Something I did realize after just playing around with stuff after the video was if you wanted to skip OLL with an R U2 R' insert, you could just do f R2 f'. That is essentially what you said about solving EO using this, but this is a more specific case that applies to a "forced" OLL skip.
    I average like 15 seconds though, so I'm not sure if this is good or not. (I literally found this like 2 minutes ago).
    I think the fingertricks are fine if you regrip, but of course, that isn't optimal. Somebody already mentioned starting in home grip, using your right finger for the f, then roll the R, then use your left finger for the f'. You could apply the same thing to what I'm saying here, but rolling R2, then f' does seem a little bit weird to me, but that might just be because I'm bad at cubing.

    Another variation you can do is f R2 f', it's really niche and kinda risky, but personally I've been able to execute it without much trouble. I mostly use it for first pair, like if there is a free pair right in front of you but goes into BR slot. There might be a use for it in between solutions, but I haven't really played with that.

    for the first pair you could do (U) sledge f R f which you can cancel to R' F R S R f' (assuming FR is open)
    for 2:30 you could (and always should) just do the f from homegrip after the R U2 R'

    I used this trick for a time but don’t like it since it severely hinders lookahead by moving the entire top layer away. By cube rotating you can also see what pieces are in the back slot adjacent to the one inserting into.

  • @rmcblaze3205
    @rmcblaze3205 3 роки тому

    I average 15 seconds and I use this a lot still, but something I thought of a couple weeks ago was using it to cansle other rotations. What I mean is that if you use this to insert a pair but have to rotate after for another pair, then don’t do it. But if you rotate for inserting then rotate again for another pair, then use this trick. I wish I could do this, but my look ahead is basically nonexistent.
