[French NR] Kanneti Sae-Han 7.40 non-lucky single (First Chamal'Open 2010)

Any solve where tps>time is incredible, but to do it in comp is amazing.

That's an interesting note; I wonder how many times that has happened in competition. Can't be more than a few. Also, I'm pretty sure incredible trumps amazing, rethink your diction, DW!
 
Crazy ridiculous solve. Looks like he knew it was gonna be a good solve from the beginning as he looked up to the judge/audience. It almost looks like one of those, "Oh, this is what you were talking about," faces. Afterwards he didn't seem too amazed by himself either. At most though, I'd say he knew it was gonna be an easy solve and maybe knew it was gonna be an x-cross. Unfortunately, this happens a lot at competitions. Regardless, it's still an incredible solve.

Thing is, he uses orange, and I'm pretty sure no-one else does. If you use another cross colour, you wouldn't see/look at the orange side.

That look to me is "lol guys, i got a 4 move x-cross. orange cross <3"

I think that he knew for the x-cross (and it's easy to see during the inspection) but that's all.

EDIT : Joey has posted at the same time so : I totally agree with you, joey. But it's simpliest to ask to him.

You must be wrong, and for many reasons.

First of all, kanneti is a really good cuber, look at his previous results, you'll notice that. Look also at the average he got (sub10) and you'll se that it isn't some kind of cosmic fluke. Second of all, he is solving orange cross, and was the only one at this competition to do that. So no feedback from others cubers would have been revelant.

And last but not least,, kanneti is always jocking and saying stupid stuff, even when he's competing - ans that is sometime quite irritating when you are also competing. The comportement he have during his preinspection is his standard comportement in competition.

For information, you'll not see me on the video, but I was just the person which is filming.
 
Btw, a solve on green cross is incredible:

x' y' U F2 L2 D2 F2 (5)
y U' L' U L (9)
U R U R' U' R U R' (17)
R U R' U' R' F R F' (25)
U (T perm) U (42)

I got 7.16. Doing a rotation before scrambling to see what other faces were like was a good idea! Lovely scramble :)

Also: sweet solve Kanneti!
 
Did you actually do the solve on green cross Rowan, or scramble it so that it was on white/yellow? I know you're at least opposite colour neutral were intending on going fully colour neutral.

I scrambled 3 times with 3 different rotations so I could see the crosses and pairs easily each time... I would like to have started out colour neutral but after spending a while attempting to switch I really don't think I will. Occasionally I'll do another cross if it's one or two moves.
