For her, it's all downhill from here.

Which is a good thing, because going downhill is fun and easy!

something is wrong with that category when a six year old wins
flippingheck•21m ago
When the category is playing with cubes, I'm not so sure?

She trains for 2 hours a day.

Average of 3 is under 4.5 seconds.

Poor little soul.

I'm a bit curious about the rationale behind splitting the category by gender for rubik's cube. Is there a difference in dexterity to justify it?

Sound about as useful as splitting rubik's cube champion by weight class.

Video looks impressive, though the resources poured into that training seems excessive to me. Maybe I'm too poor and don't understand how rich people raise their kids?
