Kwan Hefty has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.70, set at Hawaiʻi Big Island Fall 2026, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,638th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 26 competitions since May 2022, he has put 685 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.18 in May 2022 to 10.28, a 22% improvement. Kwan has entered 26 competitions, more competitions than 98% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
