A bit more heat then usual should help you to get those speeds with PLA, with a 0.5 nozzle, if you have an reliable extruder and a good hotend. From
the image linked from another video, it seems that his layers are quite thick, which would explain the z height.
I've tried printing in high speeds too. If the layers are thick and the heat is high enough, it kind of works. But I did not like the results I've got, so I usually print much slower.
