David Hills has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 10.74, set at Rubik's UK Championship 2024, puts him in the top 58.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,344th in the United Kingdom. Across 11 competitions since October 2022, he has put 131 official solves on the record across four events.

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.
