He is the current world record holder for 3x3 average and 5x5 single and average. He is widely considered to be the most successful competitive cuber in history. Even though he is fast, Feliks is starting to lose world records, because he got very quick before anyone else, now other people are catching up to him, like [[Mats Valk]], who broke his 3x3 single(5.55), Sebastian Weyer, who broke his 4x4 average(29.17), and Christopher Olson, who broke his 2x2 average(2.02).<br /> == Style ==<br /> Feliks is a color-neutral CFOP user. His meteoric rise in 2009, together with [[Rowe Hessler]]'s earlier success, were the catalysts for the current popularity of [[Color neutrality]] in 3x3 speedsolving. (Also, str8baq) For the 2x2 cube, he uses CLL.<br /> === Methods ===<br /> * 3x3x3: [[CFOP]]<br /> * 2x2x2: [[CLL]]<br /> * 4x4x4: [[Yau method]]<br /> <br /> == Achievements ==<br /> === Milestones ===<br /> Feliks was the first cuber to achieve the following milestones:<br /> <br /> === Official ===<br /> * 3x3 speedsolve average: sub-10, sub-9, sub-8, sub-7<br /> * 3x3 speedsolve single: sub-7, sub-6<br /> * 4x4 speedsolve average: sub-40, sub-35<br /> * 4x4 speedsolve single: sub-35 (in fact almost sub-30)<br /> * 5x5 speedsolve sub-1min average of 5<br /> * 5x5 speedsolve single: sub-1:00<br /> * 3x3 one-handed average: sub-15, sub-15<br /> <br /> === World Records ===<br /> Feliks currently holds 5 world records; 2 single records and 3 average records.<br /> <br /> '''Single'''<br /> *3x3x3 One-Handed: 9.03<br /> *5x5x5 cube: 50.50<br /> <br /> '''Average'''<br /> *3x3x3 Cube: 6.54<br /> *5x5x5 Cube: 57.64<br /> *7x7x7 Cube: 2:52.09<br /> <br /> === Titles ===<br /> {{S-start}}<br /> <br /> {{S-ach| ach=World Titles}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Michał Pleskowicz]] | year=2011 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=3x3 Speedsolve World Champion | year=2013 }}<br /> {{S-inc}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Rowe Hessler]] | year=2009 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=2x2 Speedsolve World Champion | year=2011 }}<br /> {{S-title-aft | after=[[Cameron Stollery]] | year=2013}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Syuhei Omura]] | year=2009 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=4x4 Speedsolve World Champion | year=2011,2013 }}<br /> {{S-inc}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Dan Cohen]] | year=2009 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=5x5 Speedsolve World Champion | year=2011 }}<br /> {{S-title-aft | after=[[Kevin Hays]] | year=2013}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Arifumi Fushimi]] | year=2011 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=3x3 OH World Champion | year=2013 }}<br /> {{S-inc}}<br /> <br /> {{S-title-bef| before=[[Dan Cohen]] | year=2009 }}<br /> {{S-title| title=6x6 Speedsolve World Champion | year=2011 }}<br /> {{S-title-aft | after=[[Kevin Hays]] | year=2013}}<br /> <br /> {{S-end}}<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Color neutrality]]<br /> <br /> == External links ==<br /> * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feliks_Zemdegs Wikipedia entry for Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> * [http://www.youtube.com/user/fazrulz1 Feliks Zemdegs's YouTube channel]<br /> * [http://www.cubecastpodcast.com/episodes/ CubeCast Podcast: Episode 02 - Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> * [http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?34267-7.34-avg-12 7.34 avg 12]<br /> === Interviews ===<br /> * [http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/entry.php?23-The-Faztest The Faztest]<br /> * Speedsolving.com: [http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?24929 Interview with Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> * [http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/entry.php?21-Interview-with-Jessica-Fridrich-and-Zbigniew-Zborowski-about-Feliks-Zemdegs Interview with Jessica Fridrich and Zbigniew Zborowski about Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgbNYznXxEE Feliks Zemdegs Exclusive Interview - Rubik's Cube record holder]<br /> <br /> === Tribute Videos ===<br /> * Speedsolving.com: [http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?35848-video-My-name-is-Feliks-Zemdegs (video) My name is Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> * Youtube.com: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWRVUWEaOQo My name is Feliks Zemdegs]<br /> <br /> [[Category:World record holders|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:World champions|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:Big Cube solvers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:OH cubers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:3x3x3 solvers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:4x4x4 solvers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:Speedcubers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]<br /> [[Category:Cubers|Zemdegs, Feliks]]</div>
