Dehong Yin (尹德弘)

3×3 · top 2.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016YIND01

Dehong Yin (尹德弘) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.70, set at Munich Open 2019, puts him in the top 2.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 130th in Germany. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since May 2016, he has put 50 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.66 in May 2016 to 7.70, a 39% improvement. Dehong has entered two competitions.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
