Speedcubing
What is speedcubing?
Speedcubing (also known as speedsolving or cubing), is the competitive solving of Rubik's Cube-like puzzles. Global speedcubing is sanctioned by the World Cube Association (WCA).
The current world record for a single solve of a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube is 3.05 seconds and is held by China's Xuanyi Geng.
My speedcubing journey
I have been speedcubing since December 2023, have competed in over 10 competitions and completed over 400 solves in WCA-recognised competitions.
Solving a Pyraminx at the 2023 New Zealand National Championships.
I use the 4 Look Last Layer method to solve the 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube in under 18 seconds on average. I am currently ranked in the top 100 in New Zealand for Pyraminx average and single. You can see all of the results I have achieved in competitions on my WCA Profile.
