i was taking break and this was first day of coming back. i didn't expect this good run but i screwed up at the end... I'm going to get 1:22:30.

Basic route is same but there are several new timer savers:
- Faster Skyview RBW (no Fi text & can skip CS)
- Faster Eldin RBW via zipper
- Committing F3 flags with Goron text for 2 RBMs, which allows to skip pushing the log to Faron woods and allows log trick
- Using the tunic for loading zone to Sky near the bazaar in 7x04 RBM, which directly puts you near the Faron Pillar
- Faster 7x04 (turn around to get the flag instead of skipping Cs after starting file 1 to avoid lags)

Recently, people found early boss rush which saves about 30 mins. Fighting certain bosses in the mini-game earlier than intended sets story flags that should not be set yet.
Skipping all B-items became possible then and it turned out much faster than expected.
The route is extremely complicated and requires a hard trick in Earth Temple.
