Time to update your signature! Nicely done! Anything sub1 with feet always amazes me.

Why update my signature? The times are still my PBs.

WR was lucky with OLL skip, even though it might look like it was planned

Your signature says "Single: 30.13" even though you now have a 29.77 single. Do you only count non-lucky PBs?

 

[jla]

Congratulations! You really deserve it

He has 27.xx NL singles.
He has a 18.xx LL skip.
I don't know.

 

[drewsopchak]

Wow! I wish I could make feet look that fun!

 

[Ickenicke]

He has 27.xx NL singles.

No, I think that 30.13 is his NL pb.

 

[AJ Blair]

So awesome to watch! I hope to be at that level of awesomeness one day! My big time sucker is PLL...I need to find better algs for feet...

 

[Henrik]

30.13 is my NL single. A PB should reflect your abilities not your luck.

I have had many sub-30s but all of them have had some kind of skip, so my PB is 30.13!

I would never count my 18.xx LL skip a PB, since it is not reflecting my ability, I can not get LL-skips all the time, therefore not my ability!
I do acknowledge that getting lucky is part of the game, and will never neglect a lucky time, I love getting lucky, but I think a personal best (PB) should reflect how good you are, not how lucky you are!

As a clever man once said "Getting lucky is not a crime"!

@AJ Blair take a look at my youtube channel for feet PLLs

I

Leave that for average.

 

[Henrik]

Leave that for average.

Oh I miss the good old days when an unofficial PB would be posted on speedcubing.com!!!

Henrik, can you describe or make a video for how you grip your cube for feet? Your R/B thing is very interesting. I'm going to do lots of feet next month (roux method tho lol) when i'm done with the marathon.

Simply hold the cube as if B was U.

 

[jokeryumyum]

wtf 47 T_T
i expect your next competition!

 

[emolover]

Wow, that was really cool and you make me want to do some feet now.

You reacted how record holders should react.

I really don't hold B as U.

I hold U as NOT U.

So being able to do my F2L pairs from more angels is essential. And since I am very dependent on my "U-layer" I don't want it on U, I hate turning what is facing U.
You might get an idea of my grip from my PLL videos.

And I am really not the only one holding the cube like this.

wtf 47 T_T
i expect your next competition!

Yea the 47 was very bad, I had to wait almost 20 to get back to the same mat, that I had set up and had my camera ready for, and where I knew what to expect from the light. So my feet got "cold" and slow. I was very sad about the 47. And then getting the 42 I didn't this I was sub-40, but someone told me it was 39.95, so surprise surprise ER mean of 3

My next planned competition is EC12 in Poland, maybe Ron and Karl will let me do feet at Iceland open, and then Swedish Open of cause.

 

[nickvu2]

What cube are you using? Tensioning? Mods?

I having a hard time settling on a main foot cube.

And congrats XD

 

[Henrik]

I use a good used/broken in F1.

F2 is also very popular for feet!

 

[Henrik]

Thank you all for the congrats!

Now I have to beat my own time :S not someone else! That is a strange feeling.

 

[CuberMan]

LOL dat reaction XD epic reaction is epic...
