Andrea Santambrogio Square-1 single WR 7.41

[cubedude7]

So I just saw this on fb:

Quite interesting, considering he got a 28.50 avg..

Any thoughts?

Surely a mis-scramble?

 

[porkynator]

They said that the scramble was checked and it was correct. Probably an easy one, though.

 

[mycube]

well it's known that there are very lucky square-1 scrambles so i think it's good possible to have such a time with an 28ish average.

It's pretty hard to mis-scramble a square-1, you probably wouldn't be able to finish the scramble.

Still possible though.

It's good to see that record broken.
It was the longest held WCA record.
And by quite a bit too.

 

[AmazingCuber]

What!? That can't be! And if it is, the WR is probably not deserved . . .

But, anyway, congratulations

 

[TDM]

He could be square-1's Telesfóro?

It's something .41 again!

Imagine how long this one's going to be held for.

I'm interested in seeing a reconstruction from him. It'd have to be pretty lucky if he average something fairly close to 28 (I average like 25 and on easy scrambles I can get like 14-16).

With Square-1 it's surely possible I guess, I'm barely sub-1:00 but my single best is some 34.xy, because of an easy scramble. So yeah, congratulations, Andrea.

My first square-1 arrives on Monday...
Don't worry about it

Congrats to Andrea.

I seem to remember another slow guy getting world record on sq-1 and then refusing to accept it because the scramble was too easy.
Unfortunately, not everyone is this considerate to people who worked really hard to get fast times

 

[Iggy]

Wow okay. Congrats!

 

[Prin]

His PB in WCA avg. 23.20 and single 15
So ... Congrats

That incident was a mis scramble though. This solve apparently wasn't.
