That's another World record in the books and a solid 16s PB with a finishing time of 29:36.69 RTA sniping KamaCrimson by 5s! This run implements a bunch of new strategies found by Brandorn and myself to make the single rang hub1 re-route rta viable and saving 3-7s. I also swapped Bridge and Snow Worries as this route is around 2s faster and since I was breaking level order with the single rang re-reroute I implemented both at once we don't need to swap orders twice.

Run Notes:
Ship Rex was decent except for a slow landshark skip/losing swim at the top of spire. 2up went alright but did lose some time on frills/TA. Walk was really good except for slide 2 skip where I lost my swim and did the groove backup. Bull was meh. Snow was solid except for ice block bilby and icicles. Outback was really good movement with a mediocre emus after a great start failed off a wrong emu hook, Shaza was sloppy to start but finished strong. Bridge was like 1s off my IL PB so I think that's pretty dang solid! Crikey had bad RNG and conservative tanks. Gate skip ground scammed me like 3x and I did a safety bite cause I wasn't feeling confident in the moment. Cass Pass was solid albeit conservative. Crest was solid. Final battle was a little sketch on wires with 2-3 misses however doom skip went off without a hitch so no complaints from me!
