WOW! I'm a rookie cuber at the age of 55! I just started cubing about 6 weeks ago. I can now solve the cube on my own without a video or cheat sheet. It take me about 4 minutes to solve, but now that I have a bunch of algorithms memorized and found this excellent video on finger trick...I can see my best time getting down to sub 1 minute. No plans to compete, I just want to improve my best time. Thank you! I'm currently handling the cube like a hand full of rocks, lol! Thanks again.

I"m 51 now, but first learned to solve when I was a freshman in highschool. I was sub 60 then, by doing all corners first then all edges. Never had a clue about all these other methods. Recently, i'm lucky to get under 2 minutes. By best time now is 1:41 using that same method I know so well. Now learning Roux and feel much the same as you... Just starting to learn fingertricks.

Hi James, glad to hear there are other people later in life having fun with the cube. I stuck at about 2-3 minutes using the beginner method. I would love to learn "Roux" or CFOP", but so far it's over my head. :) I'm going to look around my area to see if cubers meet up around here. I'm sure someone would tutor me for some extra cash. Thanks for the reply. Let me know if you find any good videos on the methods above if they break them down for newbies.

For M moves I like to use my ring finger and drag the slice back from the front, instead of pushing it. I also sometimes use my pinky for M and M' if I want to be able to do both U and U's in that grip. Also, you can do B2 as ring-middle, but that's really only useful for scrambling and one bizarre but okay-ish Gb perm.

The best example for double flicks is the 4x4 oll parity alg. Also pushing for U moves isn't as powerful as pulling with the nail side of the pointer finger with the left hand, like most people do with OH.

I use the U2 at 5:05, but NOT for U2, if that makes sense. I kinda use it for the (R U R' U) trigger, and the like - such as with Na Perm (I do it [R U R' U] [Jb Perm] [U2 R U' R'], not Chris' or BadMephisto's method). I think it's really fast to do it like that, and I guess it's a good example of where fingertricking can be very versatile.
