2-Look OLL Tutorial (Intermediate)

This is the old version of my 2-Look OLL tutorial. I recommend watching the new version, as it is much clearer. Actually, if you're really interested in this... watch both. :D

Okay, so I know I'm going to get some questions about the U2' thing. Yes, U2' is the same as U2 to a beginner, but us more advanced folks start to see that doing a U2 from the other direction is sometimes faster, which is why I included it as notation in some of the algorithms.

The OLL images for the video were created by me. If you ask me really nicely I'll send them to you and you can use them. Feel free to modify them for other OLLs or PLLs too, just please give credit where credit is due.

The images are no longer available for download. Sorry!

Special thanks to Bob Burton and Tristan Wright (Thrawst) for these algorithms. Between Bob Burton's OLL page, and Thrawst's website (www.thesixsides.com) I found all the best OLL algorithms available, and I like them alot.
Edit: The new video has better algs.

Please keep in mind that these algorithms are perfect for me, but they might not be perfect for you. Check out all kinds of sites to find the ideal algorithm to fit your style. Also, if you find one you really like, please let me know about it via a comment on this video.

Hope you guys enjoy, and I really hope this helps you get faster. Expect more cubing videos soon!

What's the point of U2', it's the same as U2.

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

@alreadytaken334 No it's not. The answer to your question is in the description. It's in the comments section at least 3 times, and it's probably annotated in the video as well. Also, the video linked as being "a better explanation" has U2' explained in the description and in the comments section at least 5 times. U2' is not the same as U2. It brings you to the same place... but so does walking and riding your bike.

Oh sorry man. I looked at the description of your v2 video and saw the explanation, then realized how obvious it should have been. I was going to remove this comment but I forgot.

Sorry.

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

@alreadytaken334 Nah, it's okay.. I just get this question A LOT.

[DarkRamune]

What is the point of OLL? how do you solve the center pieces? Please reply.

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

The point of the OLL is to Orient the Last Layer. You don't solve the center pieces. Center pieces are always in their solved spots.

we call the suun a fishy

[mackychloe]

my favourite is the star wars method: R2D2R2D2R2D2. lol good vid!

[TheFailfall]

im confused, i just want to be faster at the cube, can anyone please show me a legit video for speed solving, because right now, my average is around 1:50, and i think thats pretty pathetic

[FlawourSweet5]

this one is easy

[AyrProp39]

the last algorithm you put l' and it's not it's x :O i got stuck on that for like 2 mins :L

[JRefleX93]

Lance I have a few people telling me that we sound alike...

[BasketBallfilms247]

@cardsaddict PLL

[DeniskaG0811]

3:25 it's called Clix

[Metalgeek1911]

Hey guys, I own that cube anyone interestedin buying it??

[cjoffe690]

how do you remember all of this?? i could remember the starter one but not this one

can you please help me

[candlewick163]

@mackychloe the funny things is.... I use that to switch two second layer edges... haha
