Rubik's Cube One Handed : Tutorial

[VVilcord]

Hmm, U and U' are mixed up at 1:15 :/

[Thejeditusken2]

can you do a tutorial for solving with waterman method?

[victoriavanfsg]

your a legend, i can never speed cube and never solve it with one hand :(

[CubeTuber925]

thanks man but how should I chose my OH cube?? I have Guhong, Lingyun, F II, GH II, Alpha V. please help me anybody!!!!

[300SpartanX]

@CubeTuber925 use FII

[hhhkingofkings888]

if zbf2l ensures that u orient all the edges y do u need full oll. just asking im working on full oll though cold u tell me if zbf2l is slower than full oll.

p.s i memorized 40+olls

[1234fivesixseven8]

not to be rude and great vid btw but are you oriental in origin?

[sggibson1]

i think you got u and u' mixed up at the beggining

[Djsora555]

can i use the table in a competition?

[briandotedwards]

@Djsora555 Not by WCA rules.

[Fomelogo]

what about M2 moves in OH?

i'm really curious

[asmallkitten]

@Fomelogo not the best.

[Fomelogo]

@asmallkitten so is there an alternate algorithm form M2 U M2 U M U2 M2 U M U2

i've been practising my OH but when i get to the adyacent edge piece swap in the last layer, i get stuck for like a minute

[asmallkitten]

@Fomelogo R2 U2 R U2 R2 U2 R2 U2 R U2 R2

[amateursurvivaltv]

can you use the fridrich method for OH solving

[badmephisto]

@amateursurvivaltv of course. what else would you use?

[pariastabendesa]

*PLEASE ANSWER*

badmephisto... In this one handed tutorial, which type of cube do you use?

isnt it a DIY type D like the previous lubrication experiment tutorial? or any other cube? like i saw your video of Lubrication Xperiment and pretty useful.

can i use the real Rubik's Cube?

[wvb93]

i average around 20 seconds 2h but i average around 55 seconds 1h :(

[rudy14240]

Oh no..so i have to learn another 57 OLL algs? :D But nevermind, i find some OH OLL are pretty usefull for speedcubing also. Thanks man.

[CCV334]

you do some magic :)

[dsadwede]

you can make the right notation for right hand easier and less awkward is to position the down side facing right and the L will be replaced by U and U replaced by R, just like starting the cross on the right side :D hope this helps

[mrawesomemilk]

it's hard for me cuz my hand is tiny. D:

[skatercuber4life]

at 1:12 you get u and ui round the wrong way

[yosinarta]

i can't do U' like you did on my rubik's ..

[wellboi12345]

i just startd oh solvinng yestrday but when i use my right hand my f2l is faster than my let bt when i use my left my oll and pll are fast?which hand should i use!all oppinions welcome

[Skateboardingcuber]

@wellboi12345 I would choose right hand simply because F2L is the majority of your solve. You would hopefully speed up LL with practice...

[BatafCube]

You are talking about VHF2L not ZBF2L.

[Rabidmonkey73]

same thing only ZBLL is different

[Pandadudex96]

what cube are you using?

[Darkarm99]

i need to lube my cube i need some crc silicone!

[TheWaterfallman]

I got some

[abareemo82]

u can use some petrolueom jelly

[DaNzoMiDa]

petroleum jelly is not a good idea

[abareemo82]

i know it melts but it works pretty good

[JL2996]

@Darkarm99  Use Jig-A-Loo

[ThisIsWEB]

I just realized that you mixed up U and U' towards the beginning. ;)

[cubesrock9]

how do u record?

[keroberus2]

With a camera?

[cubesrock9]

no but like he cant be holding the camera because he uses both hands and the camera is moving around

[ThisIsWEB]

It's a high quality webcam he attached to his (large) headphones.

[LorenzoTheMedici]

its on badmephisto's website.

its a camera attached to headphones..pretty much.

[Asolmanx]

my hand isn't big enough... and it hurts after trying for 10 seconds... i think i'll give up xD

[coolmap007]

coolman...

[A3onstorm]

You should add LoftyCuber's site and youtube channel in your comments. He is a really good OH solver.

Oh, and I broke 1 minute one-handed today! Strangely, I actually find getting the bottom and top layer crosses the hardest. The bottom one requires lots of cube rotations, while the top one requires F, and even f moves, which are really annoying, seeing as my hand has been tired out by the F2L. Do you have some alternate algorithms?

[badmephisto]

yea i have the same problem. there are links to alternate algs in discription

[Swampert890]

hey, i've been thinking about oh solving and i sometimes do cube rotations such as x,y and z to do it. Is it a good way to do it? thank you! nice vid!

[lildrummah]

yeah where could you buy diy cubes

[12andomNerd]

is that a type A cube?

[xthepatmanx]

hay a question where have you got the white cube thanks for all answers

[Durandal4]

You did a better job at explaining the petrus method than in the "how to become a speedcuber" video! I don't actually use it, but its pretty fun. I think you should do a one handed video on your progress like the "riding the expo", or maybe just an average of 5.

[pinoycuber11]

Is your cube eastsheen or rubiks? Where'd you buy it?

[Profile12345678910]

it's def not rubiks,or atleast not this one in this video,rubik's doesn't make white.

[A3onstorm]

He uses DIY cubes.

[Bademeister95]

eastsheen has no 3x3x3 cubes!!just check out his channel there you can find what kind of cube he uses

[fatfatpancake]

wow yur a dumbass...eastsheen?? wtf

[Pharaun199]

whats the link for the 100 OLLs :P

[Tortak39]

I HAVE A HUGE QUESTION ! NOT AN EXPERT...HAVE YOU SEEN YOURSELF And theres so many that cant even do ONE side!

[unstuffedanimal]

he means he's not too good at solving it one handed.

[pahnter]

hmm Erik Akkersdjik use his right hand....

he is not the best OH cuber but he solves the cube OH around 20 secs....

[JRefleX93]

I have a question...

I've never tried getting good at OH solving, and my time is probably a couple minutes. I'm trying to get better so I can play Guitar Hero while solving the cube one-handed. I would need to use my right hand for the cube to do this... is it much harder to OH solve with your right hand than your left? It seems that everyone uses their left.

Thanks!

[badmephisto]

well.. you can try it. it was pretty hard for me to use my right hand, but we are all different :)

[JRefleX93]

Alright, I'll try it.

I could just focus more on using the L and U face for the solve.

[dsfr4life]

or you could play guitar hero the other way

[JRefleX93]

I think that would just be much harder

[UberCuba]

can u do a tutorial on ZBF2L

[abr71310]

Can you do a one handed F2L video?

I can't figure out how to do some pairs.

[yogician]

Thank you so much for posting this.....

[badmephisto]

its a U perm

[badmephisto]

its the U permutation, or the U PLL.

R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2

[Zaisorian]

very impressive!

i was so happy to finally solve my cube but i'm extremely slow compared to you.

Keep it up!

[CUB3FR34K]

i use ring finger for R' .... :P

[a5thjojo2]

Rw means R with the middle layer

[Gaurdian518]

on the OH OLL link u posted, what does Rw mean?

[boiswatching]

good tutorial :D can't wait to see you get into the sub-30s!

[InfinitiM13]

I do OH solve at school once in a while. It takes me a few minutes, but I understand the concepts.

[reaveskeanu]

I think my hands are small... :O

[gyc6001]

great! my OH pb is currently 33seconds.

Need to improve more.

[xxxJOHNALEXxxx]

i'm definitely faster than you

[LNOL]

You're so modest.

[ThisIsWEB]

I won't be able to become good at OH until I'm older, my hands just aren't big enough XD

[xxxJOHNALEXxxx]

i'm faster than you

[hikepark7]

learning the ZBFL would speed someone up who did the 2-look OLL, right?

[badmephisto]

yes, that is probably one approach you can take if you are lazy :)

[hikepark7]

well im pretty lazy so i'll probably do that

[bcrubiksmaster]

*Whoops! I meant OH, not OF.*

[bcrubiksmaster]

Disregard this comment.

[speedstakerguy]

umm i think its the DIY type A cube and i dont think theres any company....

[bcrubiksmaster]

You didn't give any links for OH 2 Look OLL & PLL. Anything?

[retsuta]

lol crazy fingers

love the rubix

[questioner01]

i give up my hand is too small

[speedstakerguy]

lol

[slowcuber]

good tutorial

[KA1BER]

brilliant! I was looking for a one handed vid =),

[zadinimagic]

starting at about 1:13 you mix up U and U' =P

[badmephisto]

yeeea... whatever

[alencikaite14]

thats nice, but i beleive one handed is not for me

[donbaan821]

should I get a type d like you?

[yeeungseewah]

he said type d sucks now

[theWestonian]

if you want to learn zbf2l you can check out my video on it.

hooray for shameless self promotion!

lol

[AcEoFhEarTS1991]

and gillesvdp.....and im actually uploading some OH help video's soon

[AcEoFhEarTS1991]

you should add me in that list.....my best avg of 12 is 20.05 and official single is 19.75 but best is 13.14....you dont have to but im better than Lucas (not hating)

[badmephisto]

alright alright

[Leviskatyboard]

LOL Oh my...

[esquimalt1]

you didn't even put the 2 fastest OH cubers in the links lol tomy and higo

[badmephisto]

yes i am not into OH too much, so if you send me their youtube accounts urls ill add them in

[esquimalt1]

oh well one is serisuza and the other is tomy1619

[exleader75]

where is the PLL? It just shows to a channel, not the algorithms I'm hoping for.

[loganswofford13]

the channel has the videos to every pll

[exleader75]

oh, but I want a printable page!

[badmephisto]

yea i dont know about that... write down the good ones? :p

[cronus616]

lol meph how do u do R moves with your pinky? i can't see any way of doing it other than with your ring finger...i just dont see any possible way your pinky can turn the r-layer...

[badmephisto]

well I just have a good lubed cube... its easy to turn...

[eupogia]

Thanks!

[somethingcool00]

zbf2l yes way more than 8 cases. it has hundreds. vhf2l only has 36 and does the same thing. only not as quicky. u got the part about zb WAY wrong. sorry but i felt i should say that. but anyways good tutorial.

[badmephisto]

yea i guess you're right. What I meant is that you use the 8 ZBF2L algs that ... make sense. The 8 easy and common ones where you have a pair, and are about to insert it.

sigh, yea i should post an annotation about that.

[BeasltyFry]

woooo 228 i would of been like 1-20 i saw it when u put it up 23 min ago last night but it was too late lol so i cam home from school then wached it but agen, need to consintrate on normal and learn some more OLL's but very good video 5 stars u need to make an exstended cross vid. get back to me with that please.

[PestVic]

yes i was wanting this video :)

[stachuk1992]

thanks alot, meph!

[Cerb1987]

The first time that I have to disagree with you... there is realy NO problem about the algorithms for RH, you can just mirror the algorithms or if you can't do that fast, you can do z' and then have easy UL instead of RU and don't really have to relearn.

But pretty nice tutorial for the rest :-)

[badmephisto]

yea i know people do that, but I was saying that in my opinion it is not as easy as just going left handed. Mirror ALL algorithms? Thats really easy

/sarcasm

[kolraz]

Thanks, some useful information there.

[martinchingy]

lol. play rubiks cube on the left, and jack off with the right. hahaha

[Singul4r1ty]

awesome, I tried it, cube in the LH and pizza slice in the RH, pizza slice won ;)

[whauk]

you mistook U for U'

[badmephisto]

oh noes!

[Shintakunx]

... you're a mind reader arent you. Ok ill think of something else I need help with and you make a tutorial of that too :D

[Neutrals0]

able to eat, use mobile phones, and more =P

[PJLegend123]

Yeees! I've been waiting for a vid like this! :D

[ironclownfish]

I've been looking for a good OH tutorial :D

[Chaotischesneutrales]

lmao wanting to eat while solving

[Sa967St]

hmm I wonder where he got that idea...

[badmephisto]

hahah! No! that idea predates your little stunt :)

[Sa967St]

more people are starting to eat while OH-ing now, I have no idea who first came up with the idea

[Chaotischesneutrales]

I do OH and drive =) (Driving is boring)

[donbaan821]

dang Im not old enough to drive

[Sa967St]

very nice :)

[person917917]

nice tutorial, your cubing videos are the best. I have to try this out once I memorize some more algs
