I think so. He was using it in previous competitions. Congrats to Max! He deserves it!

Yusheng Du’s world record stood for 4 years, 199 days.


I want to take a moment to point out how absolutely ridiculous that is. Even the next longest standing 3x3 single - Erik Akkersdijk’s 7.08 - barely lasted for half that time. And arguably the most visible and sought after record in the WCA, in by far the most popular event, was also the longest standing record in the WCA.

And as a result of this, all the people who have rose to prominence and become world class since then have never held the record themselves. This is Max’s first world record single in 3x3, which is insane to think about when you consider the number is world record singles other historically dominant 3x3ers (ok, basically just Feliks) have held in the past. And the other top 3x3ers, like Tymon and Yiheng, but also Luke, Matty, and Ruihang, have also never held it. (A moment of silence for Matty’s 3.08 at during the country cup.)

This really is the end of an era. Massive congratulations to Max, and I look forward to more insane singles from the world’s best cubers.

Woah, finally! Massive congrats to Max, super psyched that what is probably the most well known record in cubing finally got broken.

Also, that is stupid stupid fast. We will legitimately have sub-3 in the next few years. How???

so am I right in saying that Max has the WR now for 3X3 and 4X4 and 5x5 and 6x6?

Somebody posted the scramble on Pyraminx Solvers:

He has the record in every NxN except 2x2 and 3x3 average.

LOL I love the fact that every single WR solve that has been done that screams and Over the top re-actions kick in.
