Magic Average World Record 1.15 seconds

[th2damax]

hmm, OK, thanx

[th2damax]

Uuuuh, what did he do? Could someone put a better discription please.  Looks like he balled up a piece of paper.

[MrGoosly]

@th2damax its the magic: a folding puzzle.

[tobsterrox123]

wow...he's not asian...

[MrJordanCheng]

how does a 1.15 seccond thing end up being a 1:05 min video o__o...

[Firstbieber]

but he isn't Asian!

[antoineccantin]

@Firstbieber He's canadian.

[rubiksgh3]

what sup with the 2.78?

[Hidekils]

Couldn't someone easily beat this by not getting the 2.78?

[CraigBouchard]

@Hidekils They could, but the way the average works is that they take the fastest and slowest solve and throw them out and average the middle 3, so the ones that counted for the average are 1.09, 1.12, and 1.24.

[ImmanuelScreen]

wth is he trying to do or what is he doing....

[04mucklowd]

Man why did you stop cubing?

[robertfryar]

[cjiswhite1]

ive done better 2 BAD MY FRIENDS TAKE THEM AND BREAK EM ! IVE HAD 2 AND FRIENDS HAVE BROKE BOTH BUT 4 real ive done better

[CraigBouchard]

Get used to it. They tend to break regularly. I really need to get back into this...

[papergunmaker989]

my best 4:97

[skibur48]

ive broken 6 of them just solving them fast...but yours never breaks lol/

[CraigBouchard]

Yes, mine did back when I used to practice a lot, you get used to it, and keep 1, just replace the strings, so you can work it in.

[ViralOblivion]

Oh man, if it wasn't from that missed shot, you'd have an even better average record...your awesome tho, no doubt.

[cjiswhite1]

i feel stupid now cause it takes me 4 sec to do mine

[mrpersonguy111]

omg this isent the world record the world record it .89 seconds

[bamargera200]

average is different than single solve

[CraigBouchard]

As said, average is diff from single solve, and this is also more than 3 years old now...So if it hadn't been broken since, I'd be surprised.

[BrizarB2ST]

@CraigBouchard yeah well average record I think is like 0.84 and single is 0.77

[CraigBouchard]

@BrizarB2ST Notice the date on this...I'm too lazy to change the title.  Grow up.

[Frogster7]

whats he doing?

[IzzyHiHello]

my record is 2.92 seconds. Just gotta get a little bit faster! haha

[SpacedTime]

I played my friends but i didnt finish it. I think we broke it before we solved it lol.

[KH2fanatic2010]

my average is only 7 seconds. = {

[tdubs95]

[tdubs95]

[MigratedMoney]

[cuberZ06]

[imautubefreak]

[1PIVOTMASTER1]

good job man i am still waiting for mine to come in from ebay

[BeetleFire]

same, did u get urs from hong kong?

[tfmatrix]

7 secs cool

[monotonespectrum]

Why does the timer thing say speed stacks?

[HadleyDGRC]

Because that's the company that makes it ;)

Nice solves! My Magic record is only 1:40

[avenueq14]

how do you get it so fast?

[Moogra2u]

Theres a easy method to do it. Everyone uses that method. My record is 1.19. BUT VERY NICE SOLVES!

[CraigBouchard]

The method used in this video isn't actually the fastest method of solving it, I do a regrip, or used to, I was switching over to the no-regrip method when i stopped cubing.

[Djsora555]

@Moogra2u what is the most popular method?

[CraigBouchard]

@Djsora555 It is a no-regrip method. In the way I do it here I let go and regrip about halfway through the solve. You lose about 0.1-0.2 seconds depending on how fast you are. The no regrip way can be done in about 0.8 seconds or faster. Hence why the WR is now about that.

[xxxxmanuftwxxxx]

w0w nice solve

[yusri534]

maytas can do about 0.86 seconds on SINGLES!!!

[CraigBouchard]

Oh, really? I didn't know that. I know nothing about cubing and yet I go to competitions.

[stralbem]

Are you Matyas's fan because I'm his fan too. : )

[DaKrazedKyubizt]

that's not paper. well, technically it is, partially, but... never mind. just look it up.

[Huntrguy102]

what is he doing?

[zazumage]

solving a rubik's magic...really fast

[jsreed5]

And the method is out on the internet somewhere, I hope.

[maradona30]

ho yes WIN HAHAHA! and now? what i gona do? lets go party to celebrate my record of moving "the thing" muahaha >.>

[maradona30]

o my god he moves a "thing"? in a 1:12 sec fuck awsome. . . -> shit. i can punch your face in 0.05 sec rofl

[shunnthenonbeliever]

oh, i didn't see average and nobody clapped at 1.08 so i thought he did it wrong

[shunnthenonbeliever]

the title says 1.15 the actual time was 1.12 seconds.

[CraigBouchard]

Uh, no it wasn't. The average was 1.15 seconds...and the fastest time, if you pay attention, is 1.08 seconds there...

[gamemeister27]

Too bad that matyas showed up ;).

[mcrmaiden]

I dont even know what the hell he's doing.....

[jsreed5]

Magics are cool, I wish I had one... Do you also solve Master Magics?

[CraigBouchard]

Yah, I used to hold the world records for those too...

[joelmarte1411]

huh

[frk17]

How do you solve craig? Do you use the same method as I or did you string your magic backwards or something?

[CraigBouchard]

Who are you?

[ThePizzaGuy92]

wouldn't this bea FORMER world record average? i'm pretty sure matyus has it sub-second. haha

[CraigBouchard]

Yes, he does...

[ThePizzaGuy92]

have you ever gotten it sub second?

[CraigBouchard]

An average? No...I don't practice for hours each day, and I do a worse method than Matyas...I've gotten sub-1 single solves...

[coolman96786]

wtf is he doing

?

[username7249]

what happened when u got 2.78?

[CraigBouchard]

Screwed up...Umm...Tile flipped back or something...

[advoasks]

shut your hole, set a world record, then get back to us.

[shortykiy]

i dont get it you got 1.8 before but they clap when you get 1.12

[CraigBouchard]

It is because after I got the 1.12 it was the WR average that I set, so they clapped for that.

[CraigBouchard]

Who is this? haha, Magic is boring to me now...I dunno, they might be retiring it from WCA competitions...

[striderxo]

impressive, good thing i didn't break your magic before the contest.

[CraigBouchard]

Lemme see you do it.  That's all I can say...

[CraigBouchard]

Yes, but this video isn't made for the people who don't know it, it is to show people that know the community, and thus know the puzzle. For people to see what happened...

[259]

Yeah... I know it probably will be confusing to anyone who doesn't know what the Magic is, mostly because you can't even see the puzzle at this angle, and the objective is not obvious for this one.

[VikingRee]

What is he even doing?

[CraigBouchard]

I am breaking the world record...go look up the puzzle...it is called Rubik's Magic if you go to google you can find a good site probably that explains it

[VikingRee]

Awesome, good job homie.

[elimescube]

Craig Bouchard = Magic Master

[CraigBouchard]

*hugs*

[sushibuffet]

Hey craig its Rhodri.. i got two more vids of your WR -different angles- if you want em'.. i also got your master magic avg record too

[259]

Excellent job, dude.

[WetDogma]

Nicely done, mon ami.
