'''Feliks Zemdegs''' is an Australian speedcuber from Melbourne, Australia. He is the current world record holder for 2x2 average, 3x3 single and average, 4x4 single and average, 5x5 single and average, and 3x3OH average. He is widely considered to be the most successful competitive cuber in history.

== Style ==
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)

== Milestones ==
Feliks was the first cuber to officially achieve the following milestones:
* 3x3 speedsolve average under 10, 9, and 8 seconds
* 3x3 speedsolve single under 7 and 6 seconds
* 4x4 speedsolve average under 40 seconds (almost under 35 seconds)
* 4x4 speedsolve single under 35 seconds (almost under 30 seconds)
* 5x5 speedsolve average under 1 minute 10 seconds (almost under 1 minute)
* 3x3 one-handed average under 16 and 15 seconds

== Achievements ==
11 world records: 5 single records, 6 average records

'''Single'''
*3x3x3 Cube: 5.66
*4x4x4 Cube: 30.88
*5x5x5 Cube: 1:01.59

Brands/makes of cube dimensions 4x4x4 and above.

== 4x4x4 ==
There are ten major brands of [[4x4x4]] cubes used by speedcubers.
* [[Rubik's Revenge]]
* [[Eastsheen 4x4x4]]
* [[Meffert's 4x4x4]]
* [[QJ 4x4x4]]
* [[Maru 4x4x4]]
* [[X-Cube 4x4x4]]
* [[Dayan+MF8 4x4x4]]
* [[Shengshou 4x4x4]]
* [[Ghosthand 4x4x4]]
* [[Lanlan 4x4x4]]
However, the Rubik's Revenge 4x4x4 cube, manufactured by the Rubik's company, is not preferred by many speedcubers as compared to the Meffert's, QJ, Maru, and Eastsheen brand 4x4x4 cubes.

== 5x5x5 ==
Until recently, there were two major brands of [[5x5x5]], but the [[V-cube]] brand has made its way into the speedcubing community by providing an extremely good 5x5x5 which is almost unanimously considered the best brand by far. The following brands are available in 5x5x5 cubes:

* [[Professor's Cube]] (Rubik's)
* [[Eastsheen 5x5x5]]
* [[V-Cube 5]]
* [[Meffert's 5x5x5]]
* [[Ghosthand 5x5x5 (Otherwise known as ShenShou)]]
* [[YJ 5x5]]

== 6x6 and 7x7 ==
* [[V-Cube]]
* [[YJ]]
