VLS (Category 4 “Back”, Pattern 2 “cliff”)

In this page, I will show the algorithms I chose for the 4 cases of the Pattern 2.

I call this pattern “cliff”.

No. 145: UBR and UBL look at a side

Algorithm: (R U R’ U’) (R U’ R’) F (R U R’ U’) F’

No. 144: UBR looks at a side

Algorithm: U M (R U’ R’ U) (r U2′ R’)

Finger trick: The M can be turned by (r’ R) sequence, but also by left thumb pushing UF EP down.

No. 147: UBL looks at a side

Algorithm: (R U R’) U2′ (R’ F R F’)

No. 146: None of the CP looks at a side

Algorithm: (R U R’) (r’ U’ R2 U’ R2′ U2′ r)

The algorithms of No. 147 and 146 begin with (R U R’), so it is easy to memorize them.
