3x3 9.9 seconds non lucky in my first official competition I think I am the first person to have done this

Crazy... you just got 6 National Records in your FIRST competition.

Sounds like a challenge to me.

It's not nearly as impressive if there was no record before the competition.

For instance Emile Compion set 14 *continental* records at his first competition... but it's not like he had to try, because none of those had never been done by a competitor from Africa before. It's much more impressive to me that Yau set 6 NRs at his first competition because the UK has had a lot of competitors and a few competitions of its own, and thus beating their record times actually requires you to be pretty fast.

There are Australian records set already in most events. Josh Li holds most of them with reasonably fast times.

Worst: 3:04.65

I've been at a sub-3 area for a while now but my cube was way too worn out and locked up on nearly every turn. Buying a new one put me well under 3. Can't wait 'till it's broken in
