[Unofficial] Erik Akkersdijk 3x3x3 11.11 average (parts)

[Stefan]

Sadly I only got a bit more than one of the solves, but I did get some nice extra footage.

Digital gold!

Stefan might be a great video-editor/publisher, but he needs a director to point him to the more interesting solves

At least we have some now

 

[Stefan]

Rama: In case you mean the yellowish video parts... sorry about that, still learning how to use the cameras properly. Apparently the camera got confused maybe by the stackmat blue or the lighting and used a bad white balance. That teaches me to not set it to automatic but fix a proper setting. I'll try to edit the video to get better colors.

Arnaud: Yeah, poor selection sometimes. I didn't get the other solves because I was competing in the same round so I just left the camera running alone pointing to one table. And I'll hopefully become more aware of my camera so I don't forget to turn it to where I'm looking (like when he calculated the average). I did get all of Erik's 5x5x5 solves, will upload that average later. Also lots of other nice stuff.

Haha no Stefan, I didn't mean it literally.
even 1 solve of a WR is worth gold.

 

[AvGalen]

At least you got some of it Stefan.
Maybe next time you can ask a spectator to operate your camera?
And I also forgot to control my camera after Erik's 7.08 solve which resulted in some weird footage

I keep trying to film at the Norwegian Open, which has fewer competitors and not too many very good ones, but I fail even at that. I suspect what you're trying to do is far more difficult than breaking the 3x3 average WR.

Nice camera skillz, Stefan (and editing? HD ftw ;P).
Nice solves, Erik.

I liked the camera angle of the first solve XD

Good Job Erik but I want to see a sub 11

Hey, i am solving a cube in a WR-Average Video

Do you have some of my faster solves recorded, Stefan?

I really like how Rama criss-crosses his hands to stop the timer. Cool stuff

Stole it from Erik and I called Erik that I used his method to stop the timer, but he sat right next to me... D'oh!

 

[CharlesOBlack]

Wow, well done Erik!
and what Rama did was kinda weird, lol.

What Erik did was probably even stranger (he did a strange dance around the room).

Nevertheless, congratulations Erik. It looks like you're taking over the world records.

Did that beat Najakima's avg record? If so, I hope he backs up the statement when he said he'll start practicing 3x3 again if someone beats his record.
