Speedcubing Journey of Lucas Etter

Exactly one year ago, Lucas Etter broke the Rubik's Cube world record with a time of 4.90 seconds. He became a speedcuber in 2011 and strived to be on top one day. With support from other cubers, his family, and his friends, Lucas achieved his goal and found a home in the cubing community. This video, in commemoration of his world record anniversary, summarizes his journey these past 6 years. I would like to thank everyone for helping me in some way throughout my cubing career. Even though I first competed a long time ago, I still have a strong passion for cubing and love to be a part of the community. I cannot wait to see how cubing grows in the future. This video was edited by my dad. Thanks to him for making this video and for being very supportive!
