[WR] Guanbo Wang 0.47 WR 2x2 Single

[efattah]

Just taking my hands off the stackmat, picking up the 2x2 and putting it back down and stopping the timer, with no moves, ends up around 0.50 seconds....

I assume it was a 4-move solution?

Yep

impressive with the solution being 5 qtm and still a WR. i would expect a 2x2 WR to be the optimal 4 qtm

also i can only get 0.66 on this after much practice. sad

Zayn's 0.50 NAR was 6 QTM and only 0.01 off WR (now 0.03), same with Luke Garret's 0.51. 5qtm is still super impressive especially considering that the last move was a double flick

Yo! This is awesome! Congrats to Wang!

wow, i had no idea 6qtm was possible. also i know 5qtm is impressive, that was kinda the point. i'll have to check out Zayn's
