Rubik's Cube: Easy 2-Look PLL Tutorial (Beginner CFOP)

I show simple patterns for the 7 PLL algorithms so that they're easier to learn. More tutorials below!

Beginner ►

Advanced ►

Diagonal Corner Swap:
(F R U' R' U' R U R' F') (R U R' U' R' F R F')
Adjacent Corner Swap:
(R U R' U' R' F) R2 (U' R' U' R U R' F')

3-Edges:
1. R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2
2. R2 U R U R' U' R' U' R' U R'

4-Edges:
1. M2 U' M2 U2 M2 U' M2
2. M' U' M2 U' M2 U' M' U2 M2 (M' goes upwards)

Using the code "JPERM" supports my channel and also gives you a discount on your order.

ALRIGHT! I'VE ACTUALLY LEARNED "beginner's cfop" it took 2 minutes off of my solves 🙌🙌🙌 thank you!!! now I'll begin the full cfop journey, wish me luck

2:28 counter
3:22 clockwise

he doesnt just tell you the moves, but he tells you what to for example you take this out, put it in. love you man

[yashvianam]

This is one of the best explained video!! I really appreciate the fact that you made it visually understood & we need not remember it by just the notations! Thank you so much!!

[sicmic]

I have recently started learning to cube. I have to say, I've watched a lot of videos and yours are by far and away the easiest to understand. Awesome work.

Extremely useful tutorial. Im going to recommend this channel to my friends.

[anthonyfenner]

i already know full pll but i wanted to reveiw this and i think that beginners would learn this very quickly i wish i knew about your channel when i started cubing JPERM 10/10

[csbshaw]

I cant even begin to say how helpful your videos are. It made cfop feel easier than learning the beginners method. Hats off, most rubiks videos are confusing as hell. Yours are super straight forward. Thanks!

[chongobonk]

The problem with learning new methods is that it makes you slower at first lol

[ranveersinghbhadauriya]

thanks J perm you helped all of us in our cubing journey, there are many other videos on YouTube but your teaching style is different and just awesome, you taught about every single algorithm and explained it too. Many people just tell algorithms but does not explain them, THANK YOU SO MUCH

[saltxproductions]

I've been cubing for a month now (I average around 35-45 seconds per solve, beginner's method with F2L), and this will really help get my times down! Thanks so much for all your great videos, and serving as an inspiration to me on my journey!

[arnavjaydev]

J Perm vids:
How to solve a cross: 2.1 mn
F2L tutorial: 2.2 mn
Beginner OLL: 1.1 mn
Beginner PLL: 981K

Clearly ppl have lost hope of solving the rubik's cube gradually 😂😂😂

[PreservationEnthusiast]

I think you should add (in brackets) that these are also Y perm, T perm, U perm etc. It will make it easier for some people to make the transition to full PLL, and to make connections between different teachings.

[hellohappyglow]

Thank you jperm you helped get a sub 30 average, which has been my goal for a long time, and, when i memorized all of the 2 look pll, and got a sub 30 avg, i wanted to thank you so much but i did not know how, so i wrote this comment, please know that you will be my number 1 cuber of all time, and thank you again for all the awesome videos that you create.

J Perm: So this algorithm is kind of long but you can kind of see what's going on
Me: Wait whats going on?
