Total moves: 2316
Now, before you get all antsy, the game was played in three segments:
A) reincarnating MANTIA and leveling him up in the hall of champions
B) getting from the start to the SPEED BOOTS (where i saved)
C) getting from the SPEED BOOTS to directly in front of the corbum pit.
I have recordings of B and C, but what fun is that? I have a saved game which, when loaded, provides you with a character directly infront of the corbum pit, holding all 4 corbums, and ready to throw them across the pit at approximately 9 minutes and 5 seconds after the start of the game.
I used a completely different approach here in this run compared to all my others (last time i thought up a new approach, someone copied it exactly and just beat my time ^^) so i won't expend my secrets!!! (not only that but they're are 2 log files and i don't know how to splice them together =])
If you look at the saved game closely you'll probably find a hint as to what I did, but it won't give you specifics.
Due to the fact that i split up the game into two main parts (getting speed boots, saving, and using that as a base), this of course does not qualify for the 'Race to Ful Ya Pit' competition, but it does prove that CSB can be beaten in under 10 minutes!
Download the file above and load up the first saved game, quick pause the game and check the time and you can see for yourself it is infact under 10 minutes. It isn't completed of course, but I hope it doesnt take you 55 seconds or more to throw 4 corbums over a pit =], although the process of the game being ended does take a few seconds.

Note: the reason why I used a saved game of when I found the speed boots is because after about 150 attempts, I finally got lucky and the random gigglers ran their course quickly enough to keep up with my speed. Then from the base, there was countless more attempts from the speed boots to the Ful Ya Pit. Getting this time without saving/reloading midgame would require more luck then needed to survive an atomic bomb blast 6 feet away.
