[WR] Yusheng Du - 3.47 3×3 single

[Matt—]

There is nothing Roux about it. It has Petrus-ness, and his primary method is CFOP.

He’s just messing around. It’s not a big deal.

Amazing! Nice job! It will be interesting to see how the WCA actually confirms this. Lots of luck with this solve, but if it is legit that is totally fine. I guess we will see a few more sub-4's next year.

Good job Yusheng! First sub 4! As with Lucas' sub 5 we may see some sub 4's now because it's already happened. Who do you think will get it? I assume either Max or Feliks.

Or Jayden.

They already confirmed it and posted it as official on Facebook.

Yeah I was just doing it to mess around and for fun...

I’m surprised there’s not a meme about this solve yet.

The meme is 'No (front) video for the people's first sub4 WR' , hahaha
Interestingly, There were also no video for the first sub10 WR(9.86)

Is NO ONE going to say this? I find this very obvious, but since no one else has said it, I guess I will

Literally any world class cuber: You need to use CFOP if you want to get a wr

Du Yusheng: Or you could just use Petrus

They already confirmed it and posted it as official on Facebook.

If they confirmed it why isn't it on the official site? Not trying to oppose you, just trying to actually find out why it isn't on the website yet.

sums up all this and even has a full construction

Because it's up to the delegate to enter and confirm all the times from the comp. It always takes a couple days.

i feel like even if every single person in the world started speedcubing and going to competitions this would be hard to break

 

[cubeshepherd]

Huge congrats YuSheng on breaking the 3x3 WR single, and for being the first cuber to get a sub 4 single. Well deserved and way to take everyone by surprise.

Here's a better and longer version of the WR:

Here's a better and longer version of the WR:

Seems like the timer shows 2.98 at the moment of touching.... MoYu posted the same video.

For the thousandth time the time you see on the display lags behind what the stackmat timer shows.

This must also be the fewest moves ever in an official 3x3 speed solve.

 

[h2f]

It looks like it was 29 moves solution.

 

[Sajwo]

Soo it's a tie between him and steve cho who also got 29 moves. But I guess it's still a WR in terms of fewest moves speedsolve ever

 

[VDel_234_]

I can't believe that the WR single is already sub-4! Mostly because of the time it took for the WR to be sub-5. I believe it was 4 years to sub-5, and for sub-4 it only took 3.
Yeah, there is barely any video, and the rest of the people in the round didn't do as good. I still think the record sticks. Especially after a good month later.

 

[EccentricSensei]

Yup congrats! Finally a sub 4

This April he also got his first official 5 and 4.

He got the 5 before the 4, separated by only a week; it would have been crazy if it had been the other way around. Imagine going 3, 4, 5.
