Yinhao Ding has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.72, set at WCA World Championship 2019, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 278th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 25 competitions since January 2019, he has put 518 official solves on the record across 14 events.

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.
