YOU ARE AMAZING!

 

[PhillipEspinoza]

Very impressive videos. Never realized how fast your 3x3 phase on 5x5 is. Congrats on yet another WR. This inspires me to actually care for big cubes now.

 

[JackJ]

Dan. It was great to meet you. What a competion you had. I thought mt 1:53 4x4 was good. Too bad about Pll Parity.

[Enter]

wow cool
ps. how much do you train?
how many hours a day?...

 

[irontwig]

Nice, all counting solves were faster than the old WR.

 

[Muesli]

That's insane. You use 1 second of inspection on the 3x3 solve.

 

[Kian]

That's a pretty sweet H perm. I should switch...

 

[Dene]

I already said this but: Dene approves of this average.
Dene now wants his 1:02 plz.

ur slow.

Of course I'm kidding, great job.

 

[TobiasDaneels]

In the 5x5 video, the red and orange seem very similar.
Doesn't this bother you are is this due to the lighting.

Great solves btw. Champion material.
