Square-1 · top 3.6% of 25,272 all-time · competing since July 2018 · 2018RUMM01
Ashtyn Rummel has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 8.40, set at East Cobb Summer 2025, puts him in the top 3.6% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 267th in the United States. Until November 2013, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 27 competitions since July 2018, he has put 906 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 50% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:02.84 in July 2018 to 8.79, an 86% improvement. Ashtyn has entered 27 competitions, more competitions than 98% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
