[WR] Pyraminx average 4.39 Yohei Oka

I swear he got the same scramble/solve all five times. That's what I saw, at least.

lol :D

does anybody know if that's a mefferts pyraminx? if so, that should be the one with fluorescent labels, right?
I'm thinking about buying one...
I think they scrambled the tips differently to confuse him, but he didn't fall for it :D

Seriously, I consider this the first time I ever saw someone that really mastered the puzzle. I couln't find a single point in these video's where the competitor didn't know exactly what he was doing and what he was going to do next. The only way someone is ever going to break this WR is because of increased twisting speed or luck and I don't think luck alone would be enough.

This is the most impressive display of speedcubing skill I have ever seen during a competition

Agreed. It looks to me like if he had been required to don a blindfold before starting the timer each time, the result would have been exactly the same. :)
