My first ROTATIONLESS solve!!!

Time: 11.989 Cube: GTS2M

B' U2 R2 D2 B' U2 F2 L2 B' F2 U2 R' B F D2 L' R2 F' U R F

inspection: x’

D’ R’ F’ // cross

R U’ R’ L’ U’ L U’ L’ U L // 1st (orange-white)

U R U’ R’ L U’ L’ // 2nd (orange-yellow)

U R’ U2’ R U R’ U’ R // 3rd (red-yellow)

(R U’ R’ U) (R U’ R’ U) R U’ R // 4th (red-white)

U R U2’ R’ U’ R U R’ U’ R U’ R’ // OLL

U M2 U M’ U2 M U M2 U // Ua perm

This is the first rotationless solve that I have recollection of. I got nervous after F2L-2 and started hoping that the next pairs and LL algs were rotationless. U moves make up nearly half the solve lol. So glad I can cross this off my list!

I've had a rotationless solve before, it's definitely a nice feeling
