Follow each turn at your own pace.
0 / 10

Move 1 of 10: y'

Orient the last layer after completing F2L; permutation is handled in the next stage.

OLL 39 belongs to the Lightning Shapes group in OLL.

Recognize this starting position

In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: UFR, UBL. Upper edges with that color facing up: UF, UB.

Execute the algorithm

y' Fw' Rw U Rw' U' Rw' F Rw S

The opening is y' Fw' Rw; the final segment is F Rw S. This version contains 9 face, wide, or slice turns and 1 whole-puzzle rotation.
