Cameron Etherington
3×3 · top 5.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since October 2019 · 2019ETHE01
Cameron Etherington has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.30, set at Wiltshire Summer 2026, puts him in the top 5.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 412th in the United Kingdom. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since October 2019, he has put 246 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 23.69 in October 2019 to 9.30, a 61% improvement. Cameron has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
