Not bad, I guess. But of course this was actually a fairly common thing to do 15-20 years ago. Here's Lucas Garron's page on it from 2006:

You can see he said here that his personal record at the time (in 2006!) was 11.88 seconds execution, and in the video comments he says it probably took 10-20 minutes memorization before he solved it.

Also I suspect Lucas never used an extra cube to help with figuring things out while memorizing.

Check the link in my post above. Lucas gives a very good explanation of how it is done. Odds are you could do it without too much practice - if you're able to solve sub-20, it mostly just takes determination and willingness to do it. Although it does take a good bit of practice to be able to do it quickly.
