If I had to judge for Harris Chan, Yu Nakajima, or any other sub-15 cuber, I'd just quit then and there. I'd fake a heart attack or something. I'm only 15 so...

What we really need are weight classes in cubing. In juggling, they do something called "three club combat," the goal of which is to juggle 3 clubs while...
Firstly, that would be way too impractical. Secondly, I sometimes think that the reason that some of the top guys are so fast are because they have an already...
