3x3 OLL 53 algorithm
3x3 OLL 53 algorithm: 11 turns, opening with Rw' U' R. Case recognition, the complete sequence, and practical execution notes.
Orient the last layer after completing F2L; permutation is handled in the next stage.
OLL 53 belongs to the L Shapes group in OLL.
Recognize this starting position
In the inverse-derived training position, the upper-face color points upward at these corner positions: none. Upper edges with that color facing up: UF, UR.
Execute the algorithm
Rw' U' R U' R' U R U' R' U2 Rw
The opening is Rw' U' R; the final segment is R' U2 Rw. This version contains 11 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
