Hanson Nguyen has been competing for 9 years.

Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since November 2017, he has put 25 official solves on the record across two events. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.83 in November 2017 to 10.21, a 39% improvement. Hanson has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
