Clock · top 4.3% of 32,048 all-time · competing since November 2024 · 2024HEDS01
Ebbe Hedström has been competing for a year. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 4.94, set at Dvärsätt Open 2026, puts him in the top 4.3% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 32nd in Sweden. Until April 2015, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2024, he has put 318 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 61% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.98 in November 2024 to 2.25, a 55% improvement. Ebbe has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
