[Unofficial] Clock DNF(6.63) avg - Sebastián Pino Castillo

My mind was blown when he memo'd the back side and didn't flip during the last solve.
I personally don't know how hard that is to do for the best clock-ers (I'd imagine it isn't THAT difficult in easier cases, but not easy nonetheless), but I hadn't seen it done before. xD
 
I was afraid this would happen. The scrambles seemed ludicrously easy, but obviously he's one of, if not the fastest clock solver anyway, so he fully deserves this :)
As for solving without flipping, it's not too hard on some scrambles, especially if it's only like 2 moves for the first side instead of the usual 5. It's possible to learn to do no-flip solves on any scramble, but a takes a while to pick up and get down to the 15 secs inspection time, and is obviously DNF-risky too. I'd like to see the scrambles if anyone has them.
 
Congratulations, Sebastián.

It's good that he has proven that he is not only fast when doing ridiculous easy scambles. I wouldn't dare to do a non-flip solve in competition - a flip solve is DNF-risky enough. :)

And btw. I would also like to see the scambles, if anyone can provide them.
