[ben1996123]

[KaiXevandStanley]

Thought I'd take a look at the 'other side' for a change. You certainly are the Usain Bolt of cubing.

[xxetfownsxx]

by the other side do you mean solving instead of building?

[KaiXevandStanley]

Yes, Especially speed solving.

[pyutchok]

the greatest erik ever!

[egonAges]

is the cup on the right from IKEA ?

it looks like one from there :))

[frk17]

no, I got it somewhere in Germany in a big supermarket, like... 5 years ago.

[MyCoolVidsUwant]

What program r u using?

[Simpsonsfan1993]

CCT I believe

[nerina1234]

wow

[TheRealRslive]

zomg , RA of 5 : 9.76

[Tortak39]

I suggest trying eBay for Type Bs cos they sell old cubes too even when most have been updated ect

[nanotek2711]

im using the type f too

[SteelMagyar]

Nice job Erik! Congratulations!

[8472HeMan8472]

where do you get black type b cubes?

[partyboy10210]

on the 12.81 you said horrible solve, well if you dont want that time can I have it? lol

[zbrolyz]

lol'd

[krawattenfan]

erik, is that 'silbermond' in the background?

[frk17]

very possible yes, you like silbermond too? It was eldoradio (luxembourgish radio on the background)

[qwertyriffic]

and i still dont get why an OLL skip is o bad............

thats prob becuz i dont know alot about cubes, my avg is only 40 secs LOL

[qwertyriffic]

i thought type f cubes were supposed to be all bubbled up and stuff............

[PokefanDP]

"12's suck really hard"

I wouldn't be complaining about 12's mate! xDxD

[SinH4]

believe me, you would if you want Sub-11 avgs. Even I sometimes complain about 12s

[partyboy10210]

then can I have the 12s? lol

[FrankLZap]

Incredible

[Zkurta]

yeah : DDD

[CuberTim]

What?

[ViralOblivion]

I think it's so funny how you get that disapointed reaction on that 12 second solve when 12 seconds is almost as twice as fast as my personal record...That the best way to make me feel slow...

[DOUBLESH0CK]

wow, out of 12, that's pretty crazy

[peonx]

awesome!

[magnum66]

man man... :D

[fazrulz1]

First 5 solves - uber average.

[cubestack]

OMG! just noticed its like 9.67s. Really uber

[ForzaInternazionale9]

What program is that timer thingy ?

What method do you use ?

[Angel8795]

dunno on the timer, but it's fridrich method, he has a whole video about how he does things.

[Spef5]

"and some more shit, why not :)" Cracks me up after not much (no) sleep :P

[ThePieAndPiMan]

Is the type F your main speed now?

[ThisIsWEB]

Aren't you special? :P

Sub-11 wins

[Shmekekey]

Hey, erik.

Can you post a review on that type F?

[casualcuber]

Are type F's and good?

[a7xcuber]

o. never noticed the annotation.

[HumanoidHammond]

I wish my "horrible solves" were 12 seconds ._.

[shamah02]

lol me too...

[a7xcuber]

Is that by anychance a joy? It doesnt have the crisp style that your hybrids usually do

[555tHeNaMeleSs666]

It's a type F...

[LNOL]

Lol I get at least an Oll skip every other day... with partial edge control though.

[JasonJRY]

he hates his 12s lol, then my 12s avgof 10 must suck big then lol even if its a 2 second margin =P nice 1 erik``!!

[hdskull]

Damn, I see the sub 10 average coming Erik!

[kissman120]

is Erik Akkersdijk better than Yu Nakajima?

[rubixkewber78]

its hard to say, really.  there both pretty equal, and record holders, but currently, yes he is.

[ThisIsWEB]

Why do people ask this? No and yes. Yu would probably beat him in competition, and currently does with his at-home videos, but Erik has done more overall in competitions... Yu has competed in the 3x3x3 in almost a year, and Erik does often, so he's likely to have better recrods.

I'm still going with Nakajima personally as faster, but they're both Gods in this. Don't take sides.

[ViralOblivion]

I agree, Erik is uber good, but Naka's average is better according to what we've seen in comps.

[DaveDiablo1991]

nice solve

[mcspazotron]

HAHA at the OLL skip cubing does have its moments.

[murichej]

nice solves

[leandrobaltazar2407]

so nice.

how fast can you do PLL? i mean what is your fastet PLL and slowest PLL (in sec.)

mine is currently:

fastest: U(b) (counterclockwise 3-edges): 1.59

slowest: U (parallel lines): 2.94

[frk17]

I can do like 7 PLL's sub-1 I guess, but this is useless since it's about how good you can do them DURING solving, not solely

[leandrobaltazar2407]

youre rigth.

PS: im improving on solving. yesterday i got a lucky 16.96 and today it was a non-lucky 16.65.

great :D

[goshypimple13]

i realised 2 12s solves were A perms

[LuigiStl]

O.O *dies*

[123IOWNALL321]

LOL I almost died laughing when you got the OLL skip...your hand even made it clear that you were "WTF".

[jesszus]

Amazing!!! You are that good with every type of cubes! :D Nice job! :)

[TheBloodyTalon]

nice solve.. as usual.. :D

[astheclockticks]

amazing

[ccchips296]

=O nice! 9.7 average of 5 on the first 5 solves too :D

[cubestack]

Great average!

changed to type f? By the way, for your rubik's diy core, did you tighten it all the way initially when gluing the caps on?

[TheRealRslive]

singles pwnz

[roOstaz94]

hey erik! Nice video, you're now my favorite speedcuber now. Although you all inspire me to get a sub 20 average.

[FeDeRuSs]

OMG! Amazing. Do you do frequent sub 11 averages?

[frk17]

yes

[BondservantLZ]

wow...

[CuberTim]

Is this a hybrid Type F cube

Or do you just lube it very nice?

Because i got an type F cube

but i dont like it really:D
