aint no way this kid doesnt have a sub 4 ao5 at home

 

[Mr Cubism]

I still remember the first sub-5 single back in 2015 by Lucas Etter, and now we have the first sub-5 ao5. Crazy times

This is not the first sub-5 ao5, this is the fifth.

no skips besides xcross's......what the heck!

I thought you meant he got an XCross skip for a second

 

[An Animating Cuber]

I thought you meant he got an XCross skip for a second

No he meant skipping F2L pairs

I'm a bit late but I just realized that the fact Yiheng celebrated indicates that he probably actually enjoys speedcubing and cares about it, and isn't purely forced to do it as some people suspected.

No human has ever got a sub 4 ao5 and Yiheng does not even have the world best.
The world best ao5 is 4.2

Has Yiheng reported his best Ao5 at home?

Has Yiheng reported his best Ao5 at home?

I honestly have no clue.

At this point, I think Yiheng has WB, but I am not sure if he has a sub-4 ao5. At the very least, you would need a counting sub-4, and if the other two counting solves are above 4.00, that counting 3 would have to be a pretty low one. The first sub-4, official or otherwise, would probably have a non-counting sub-4 and 2 that count.

I doubt it. I’d expect 2-3 mid 3s, a 4, and either a 4 or some 5-6 that he messes up on. A counting 2 seems much further away than a sub-4 average to me

Yiheng 4.48 WR avg on live.

It still scares me that a 9 year old kid can turn a cube that fast

We should prohibit bumping world record threads on weekends

Why weekends?
