Any One Handed Cubers?

[MalusDB]

Obviously there are OH solvers, but what I mean is are there any cubers who actually only have one hand? I know a guy (he doesn't cube) who was born with only 1 hand. Does anybody know of any cubers like this?

There are rather few people with only one hand, there is a relatively small group of people who cube, and if there does happen to be some one who fits this they still have to be on these forums and see your post. Odds are against you finding some one of that description, but good luck anyway.

Sky (forgot his last name) has only one really functioning hand, his fingers are completely deformed on his right. However, he doesn't do OH because he doesn't like using his left hand and actually does big cubes in comp, oddly enough.

Cool It just struck me that there is probably at least one. If you have literally only one hand you may never even contemplate trying to solve a twisty puzzle of any kind at any speed though.

Emerson Herrman has only a thumb and pinky on his right hand. He's still pretty good at 2H cubing.

Sittinon Sukhaya has thumb and index finger on his left hand. I know at some competitions he just competed with one hand during the 2h event, since his times are pretty similar for the two events. I don't know if he does this for all competitions though.

The first comp I went too he was only using one hand for the 2h event. But all the comps after that he was using both hands.

I'm trying to convince a one-handed friend to cube, but he doesn't really want to invest the time into getting fast. :/

I met some guy (over a year ago) at a 24 hour cafe in Denver and taught him how to cube... He learned in only a couple of hours. I only saw him a few times and I don't think he feels like competing.

He was in a serious fire which burned 95% of his body. It was serious enough that he had his right arm removed up to the elbow. His left hand still has 2 'stubs', his thumb and index finger were removed up to the first joints. He could still manipulate the cube with a hook for a right hand.

He was quite good and skipped learning LBL and started with F2L right away. I think he solved in 4 min. avg.
