Man, all these Asian cubers are popping out of nowhere like corn out the stalk (yea I am southern). Don’t want to assume anything or make a racial stereotype but is cubing like valued in young popular culture more over there than in the U.S.? Just curious

This kid got a 10.96 official average, also at the age of 4.

Not fair. I was impressed when my 5yo cousin learned first layer on a 2x2 (I spent like 15 min teaching him)

at most 3, though I would not be surprised if a 2 year old had a 2x2 or pyra solve by now

At my last competition I saw a 6 year old solving my Megaminx, and when I was 6 I struggled to solve 1 side of my 2x2. I don't know how these kids get so fast.
