Oh thanks, maybe I posted it before the final round of 5bld was held - just edited now. And by the way: that is really great!

This is a collective achievement: the infamous Haiyan Zhuang is out of the top 100 best 3BLD singles!

He is 102th in the ranking at the moment https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/persons/2008ZHUA01

Congratulations to all 101 persons solved it under 30.94 in competition!

Fábio De'Rose was probably one of the last to surpass him.

Indulge my ignorance, who is this guy and what made him infamous? Sounds like an interesting story.

Edit: A quick glance at his profile makes me guess, did he only ever do BLD solves even in normal 3x3? Looks like he was pretty dominant in BLD for a while.

 

[FastCubeMaster]

3rd at Nats with a 38.07 Single!
Super happy to be on a podium with Tomoya and Jack

fun facts

average stps: 6.92
average algs/scramble: 10.09
average memo time: 10.35 lol
average exec time: 14.54

 

[sigalig]

10/10 multibld in 8:36.71
4:01 memo which is really good, but 4:35 exec is sooooooo bad, way worse exec/cube than what i normally get on big attempts

I'll keep trying for a sub-8 attempt. I've had a handful already that were all 8/10 or 9/10 by small mistakes.

 

[abunickabhi]

After 4 attempts, I got a successful 11x11 Blindfolded solve!

Spoiler: Video

That's just amazing!

All the best for your 2-7 BLD relay attempt #39

 

[Julio974]

After ~20 attemps, I got a successful Ivy Cube Blindfolded solve! (40.77)
...
...
That was my first ever blind solve success on any puzzle...

It was at a competition since I don’t have an ivy cube of my own, I’ll have to try again next time I can.
