He was the one that helped me on my talk show program last semester with his buddy, Yob on rubix cube and he and his buddy was kind enough to help in that program where it was something out of the extraordinary. It even captured the minds and attention of my fellow classmates, lecturer and even the working staff watching them do their speed cubing. Thanks to both of you :)
So i went over with him to the mall and it was a crowd. I was expecting few competitors around as rubix cube is something rare among our Malaysian countrymen. I was wrong indeed as all levels of society came and participate, from children as young as 8 9 10 years old to teenagers, even a mum came and compete in the competition.
He was thorn among the roses...:P minus the small boy at the far right end..
Second group in action..
And of course Faisal does his stuff, easing through the first round easily, beating 4 girls in that group. In the finals, he was up against this young boy, Imran winner of group B, it was sheer tense and exciting as both competitors were doing their stuff and in the end Faisal won the competition with the grand prize of a new CSL handphone . (CSL is a Malaysian brand)
Final round...Faisal vs Imran (if that was his name)
Winning it hands down
Prize giving
To him is not about winning the handphone, what is important is to be involved and be part of the excitement and aura of the competition. That's what a true cubix player is all about. :)
Our very own Malaysian made handphone...that was his prize for winning the competition..
P/S: Buy Malaysian product and congrats to Faisal :D
