Joshua Wong has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.01, set at Tramsheds VI: Winter Sunday 2025, puts him in the top 1.2% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 67th in Australia. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since August 2018, he has put 78 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.61 in August 2018 to 7.72, a 59% improvement. Joshua has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
