-.- he did the WR solve in the first round. in the finals, only he and Joey (the best two in the first round) dnfed all 3 solves in the finals.

knowing joey he will probably have just tried to go as fast as possible after getting a new NR
and probably the same for ville, seeing as he just got a WR...

Sorry it's not filmed from the best angle, and I skipped the beginning, and I didn't get the reaction! Oh well, hopefully someone else has a better video than me!

Lol Joey, it was a good film except for the beginning and end. YAY VILLE!

Oh crap Chris Hardwick got beat!

Oh crap Chris Hardwick got beat!

That's all right - it's not even sub-6; it's still very much in range for Chris to get it back! I predict he will get it right back as soon as he makes it to his next competition.

But if Ville (or Rafal or Rowe) ever gets a sub-5, it's going to be a lot tougher.

that WR 3x3 doesn't even seem to go that fast. very strange to watch. looks like it's very easy for him.
