Hamish Bassig
3×3 one-handed · top 0.18% of 74,621 all-time · competing since May 2025 · 2025BASS08
Hamish Bassig has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 7.92, set at Melbourne Cube Days 2025, puts him in the top 0.18% of the 74,621 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8th in Australia. Until May 2015, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since May 2025, he has put 201 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 62% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 8.54 in May 2025 to 6.11, a 28% improvement. Hamish has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
