Quinn Hansen has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.39, set at Sylvan Solves 2022, puts him in the top 5.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 181st in Canada. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since January 2019, he has put 207 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 36.68 in January 2019 to 13.63, a 63% improvement. Quinn has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
