China Competition Trip (feat. Feliks, Max, and Nahm)

This September/October, I was invited by GAN to spend some time in Guangzhou, China and attend China's 10th Anniversary Championship. The trip was a fantastic experience, especially because I got a chance to hang out quite a bit with Feliks, Max, and Nahm, who are all three great guys (and amazing cubers). There are some (I hope) cool things in the video such as a visit to the GAN factory, some good banter by Max, and a surprise appearance by two world-class singers. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. This is the first time I tried to make a 'proper' edit, and it took me many hours to go through the footage and cut it, but I think it was worth it.
Thank you to: Gan, Amanda, DT, everybody at GAN Cube, Feliks, Max, Miki, Schwan, Nahm, the competition organisers and delegates, and the Chinese cubing community. 谢谢。
