Kashiwa Open 2008 Results (3x3 WRs)

[RobinBloehm]

The first BLD scramble must have been quite heavy, only 2 out of 17 competitors were able to solve it

 

[Cerberus]

Only the two Yus could beat it ;-)

 

[masterofthebass]

Crazy!

 

[Cerberus]

I think it wasn't even OLL skip? not that good to see thanks to distance and more important his speed....
8.72 non-lucky *___* damn

 

[Hadley4000]

Looked like full step to me.

 

[Lt-UnReaL]

I dunno, looked like OLL skip to me... :S What about his other 8.72?

 

[Yu Nakajima]

Hi, Thanks all

First 8.72 was full step. Not easy closs, 4 easy F2Ls, 2 corner OLL, and G Permutation-a.
Second 8.72 was OLL skip. And Edge cycle permutation.

That video is second 8.72. (So, OLL skip)

Very INCREDIBLE Yu Nakajima!

I wish I could be 3x as fast as that...

That was awesome breaking the world record 2 times, and they were the same times, and one was NON - LUCKY!!!!!

Also amazing how your broke the world record average!!!! Maybe if you got both 8.72s in the same round, you could have gotten a sub 11 average!!!

Wow that U permutation execution was like ONE SECOND! (Mine is like 3 seconds )

By the way, what cube did you use?

 

[Hadley4000]

Yu, do you have the first one on video?

Yip.
Reconstruction
(This was not too easy, but manageable.)

Anyone got the first vid?

 

[Harris Chan]

Wow excellent Lucas! Hehe, it seems my solve at C3 had higher tps than his (probably could've been 6 tps if i didn't lock up the R perm). I'm sure his other 8.72 will have like high 5s or 6s tps.

How did you know the scramble of the solve, and how did you know how he solved it? Did you know how he solved it because you knew there was goign to be an OLL skip and a U permutation?:confused: Very nice work though!

........man, this hurt... why do i even bother cubing anymore nakajima WILL destroy the world very soon very few categories are safe from his eternal wrath and dominance. must find something he's not good at....

...from the video.

 

[Worms]

congrats Yu!!!, the first sub9 just one year after the first sub10

that's incredible, I mean both (the actual Yu's solve and Lucas's reconstruction).
not sure which one of the two is harder :confused:

you should get a job in forensics.

yeah, and where is the video of the other 8.72 effort ? interested in that one...

So long as he leave me pyraminx

Good job on the reconstruction, Lucas
