What is Kuti doing?

Mátyás Kuti stops the timer then continue solving and stops the timer again. :O

But it looks like an accident.

This was in Swedish Open 2007 2x2x2 final and the outcome of this solve did not have any effect on his placement in the competition.

I didn't see him stop the timer?! :S

Can anyone point it out to me please?!

I don't think he's doing any bad in this video - he's not solving the cube at first, he's just memorizing it, than putting it down, and than solving it!

[KConny]

Yes, that's the inspection phase of the solve and not the solving phase, where he does do something wrong.

lol i thought this was 3x3 for a sec

Just look at the timer. It stops at the point when he does that "weird" wrist move and not after he finishes the cube.

Pause the video right at the moment of the wrist move. You'll see the timer stopped at 5:31 and his hands in the air.

This is just "cheat practice".

During inspection was it cube rotation or cube turning?

es el mas inteligente del mundo pero no por este video

[PokefanDP]

Ahh, thankyou, I see it now!

To me it looks completely accidental though, :/

Matyas Kuti is well-known as a cheater in the cubing world. He was disqualified from any official WCA competition for three years after being proven he cheated in some blindfolded competitions. Though, he is a very good cuber, but lost many people's respect and lot of credibility after the incident he was disqualified after.

That's quite obvious.

yea but i think he just didn't want the DNF
