Wei Hong (洪伟)

3×3 · top 1.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2016 · 2016HONG14

Wei Hong (洪伟) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.13, set at Hangzhou Open PM 2021, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 527th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since August 2016, he has put 225 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.95 in August 2016 to 7.13, a 40% improvement. Wei has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
