Hanbo Yang (杨涵博) has been competing for 8 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.21, set at Zhengzhou Zest 2025, puts him in the top 3.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,166th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since December 2025, he has put 58 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. Hanbo has entered two 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.
