Hope Boxell

2×2 · top 44.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2024 · 2024BOXE01

Hope Boxell has been competing for 2 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 5.43, set at Freo Cube-Off 2025, puts her in the top 44.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,503rd in Australia. Across 11 competitions since April 2024, she has put 135 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside her 3 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 41.00 in April 2024 to 26.78, a 35% improvement. Hope has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
