[Unofficial] Theodore Chow 9.39 Cross on left Ao5 (7.80 single)

[Musicalboy2]

PB for me by quite far. This is the first time I've gotten a sub 10 average of 5 on camera, and also the first time I've gotten a sub 8 single on camera.

(7.80), (14.81), 8.23, 10.21, 9.73 = 9.39

The F2L on the 8.23 looked so cool!

 

[Tim Major]

Nice job. I remember switching to COL for a month or so a few years back just because it looks so cool. Seeing this video makes me which the switch worked, this looked awesome especially the fast as **** F2L on the 8

 

[kcl]

your f2l is awesome, and your H perm :O

 

[xsolver]

I keep replaying that 8.xx solve, oh my god, i still cant believe that F2L happened so fast and sexy.

 

[Chree]

So happy this video exists. Awesome turning style too.

I don't think it's really a "thing" it is pretty uncommon. That is why this video is so awesome!

Phillip Espinoza.

Does he even cube anymore? I know he was very active before, but it seems he's kind of fading away.

I think it has always been around, but like other "methods" not so common.

The 2003 World championship 3x3x3 single world record was COL by Jes Bonde.

And 4 out of 5 european championship titles was won using COL.

I use COL too. It's just like reading. You go from left to right
