[Unofficial] Koma, the LBL god, is sub-17!

[EmersonHerrmann]

Go Koma! (it's only an average of 5, but I'm sure he can do this with an average of 12)

 

[(X)]

That's some turning speed

 

[d4m4s74]

does Koma compete?

he'd look all Fridrich users look like snails

 

[julesv]

That is so so so crazy! Did he learn Fridrich and now does LBL for fun, or did he practise for years and years and does 1 look PLL?

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

It's also a demonstration that LBL is weak: 16.xx isn't fast by today's standards, yet that turning speed is ridiculous.

 

[dChan]

It looks like he does full OLL and PLL. Is he using a method other than Fridrich or are you just saying that the guy who is fast at LBL is now sub-17?

EDIT: I checked out his Youtube and can see he knows all PLLs and most of the OLLs. So I assume he does the first two layers beginner's style?

 

[Pedro]

why in the world does he know all OLL and PLL and uses 1st layer, 2nd layer?

turning speed is indeed impressive

 

[soccerking813]

Wow, never thought even sub 25 was possible with LBL.
It almost looks like it is in fast-forward when he is doing the solves. XD

 

[Stefan]

If he's really the "LBL god", then only because the really fast solvers don't use LBL.

He only uses LBL...he says he is taking F2L slowly. He has also gotten an 8.xx second solve.

@Stefan: cut him some slack

 

[Gparker]

Doesnt Erik have a video of LBL sub 20 also?

EDIT: Average, not solve

 

[EmersonHerrmann]

Doesnt Erik have a video of LBL sub 20 also?

Yes but Erik knows F2L, has cubes for almost 4 years, and has 6 world records. I don't think you can really compare that.

 

[BigSams]

xD have to agree with pochmann on that one. wonder how fast he'll be with full f2l

 

[Stefan]

@Stefan: cut him some slack

What?! Not saying he's bad. He's good, but not awesome like some of you make it sound.

Yeah maybe I am overexaggerating a bit

yea i know that but what im saying is that he has a video of sub 20 LBL, i know he knows full F2L, but practicing LBL can be quite fun and thats what he did

May I ask what alg he uses for middle edge insertion? It's so fast I can't see it.

U R U' R' U' y L' U L

and for the last 4 moves (including the rotation) it can also be y' R' U R

I thought he used cubestation algs...

where could i find a goood LBL tutorial?

i dont know,but you can find the algs to solve the edges in the middle layer from cubestation,i use most of them

and my tips: do the corss and layer one corners on the left!

*shrug smiley if we had one*

Thank you, kind sir!

I am curious: Do any fast cubers use the R U R U R U' R' U' R' or is it considered a kindergarten alg?
