| 1 | 33.37 seconds | Rowe Hessler | yeah. This is what i had: EP: (UF UL UR DL RD DF BD BL BR)(after doing this i had to orient UB and UF) CP: (UFL UBL UFR)(DFL DFR)(DBR DBL) im slightly mad at myself because this scramble had like 25 second potential. Ill never get a more perfect scramble then this. This is with visual memo but i am in the process of learning my new memo method created by Dennis Strehlau and myself ) | 20080705 |
| 2 | 43.86 seconds | Alexander Yu | non-lucky 1 edge and 2 corners done | 20080701 |
| 3 | 48.11 seconds | Joey Gouly | Really easy solve, non-lucky. 2 edges placed. 1 correct corner. 2 corners permuted but incorrectly oriented. | 20080325 |
| 4 | 51.22 seconds | Kai Jiptner | Just a try on Dan Cohen's scramble. U' F' B' U D2 F U2 R2 F U' F B U F' U' B2 F U F B D2 U2 F R2 D Done with my old standard system. My first sub 55 in ages. I'm experimenting with a 484 Images system and TuRBo edges and corners. But my times with it are in the 7min area D. | 20080608 |
| 5 | 52.15 seconds | Alex Cook | On the day that Rafal beat the official WR for 3x3 blind, I beat my PB! Non lucky, four misoriented corners, two permuted corners, and zero permuted edges. Memorization was 20 seconds, so the execution was really good at 32 seconds. :-) | 20080608 |
| 6 | 55.01 seconds | Yu Nakajima | Video CubingTechniques.com | 20080422 |
| 7 | 55.75 seconds | Eric Limeback | FIRST SUB-1 EVER! Beat my old PB by 15 seconds :D Done with Old Pochmann for corners M2 for edges. Completely non-lucky solve - only one piece (corner) solved no others were even unoriented. Edge+Corner memo were both ~10 seconds each = 20 second memo.and M2 is FAST. here I come NR :D | 20080422 |
| 8 | 56.40 seconds | Milán Baticz | Absolutely non lucky. 0 edge and 2 corners placed correctly but their orientation was not correct. 19 seconds of memo. Practise practise practise. | 20080322 |
| 9 | 58.33 seconds | Jean Pons | M2 R2 non lucky 25 s memo very fast solve | 20080626 |
| 10 | 59.80 seconds | Derrick Eide | FINALLY!! OMG I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW! AND WITH OLD POCHMANN TOO! YEAH!! | 20080511 |

| 12 | 1 minute 1 seconds | Tomasz Korzeniewski | n/a | 20080121 |
| 13 | 1 minute 2.00 seconds | Yuusuke Koike | Scramble:F2 D2 L R2 B2 U L B2 L U R' F2 L2 B2 U2 F' U D L U R U L' B' D Use 3-cycle method without EO. CO was quite easy. This is my best time of non-luckey case. (My best time of luckey is 48.23) | 20080224 |
| 14 | 1 minute 2.97 seconds | Bertalan Bodor | My previous record was 1:13.18 so I was surprised on this time. Before this I had two sub-70-DNF solves but it's almost sub-1:D I'm so happy. Two edges and one corners were in their place (I think it's not lucky). Memo was around 30 (not too fast) but the solve was very fast. Here is the scramble: U2 B' L' B' F U' B' D' U2 L' F' U' F R B' F2 L R B2 F2 U B F D' B' | 20080721 |
| 15 | 1 minute 7.80 seconds | Lucas Garron | Video My BLD pages I'm practicing 4x4x4 BLD and experimenting with freestyle 3x3x3 edges, and it's decreasing my memo times in general. | 20071206 |
| 16 | 1 minute 7.81 seconds | Chi Chu | The 3rd time sub 70. Maybe 25 seconds for memory. (3-cycling system) The average time is still not good for me. I need more practice. | 20070127 |
| 17 | 1 minute 12 seconds | David Orser | Nice setup for my method (modified Carr method). Good solving setup + easy to memorize (not always the same thing). 5 corners unoriented, 10 edges flipped, 0 corners placed correctly, 1 edge placed correctly. 109 turns. | 20061114 |
| 18 | 1 minute 13.93 seconds | Dan Cohen | F' B2 D2 L' D' L2 B' D2 B U2 F' L D2 U' B R2 L2 B R D' U' L2 R D L2 Very easy. No parity. Was able to use commutators for some corners. | 20080224 |
| 19 | 1 minute 15.33 seconds | Balázs Bernát | with a big mixture of methods. corners: old pochmann and 3cycle. edges: M2 and an easy case from TuRBo. it's good that i recognised them fast :) | 20080227 |
| 20 | 1 minute 15.72 seconds | Ville Seppänen | Awesome! Improved my previous record by 13 seconds ;) Only one corner in place but it was misoriented. | 20080513 |

I tried to memorize as fast as possible(31s) and surprisingly i could recall everything without delays :). I hope i can become as fast as Kai someday. | 20071022 |
| 26 | 1 minute 21 seconds | Edouard Chambon | Just wanted to post because I stopped practicing. Method Old Pochmann. Not lucky at all. Did that while drinking beers in Madrid with Samuel near Sheriff's house !! | 20080721 |
| 27 | 1 minute 21.40 seconds | Johannes Laire | I used Pedro's scramble, technically not lucky but really easy. It took 25 seconds to memorize, 8 to check everything, and 48 to solve. Believe it or not, this is my first succesful sub-2! F' L R' D2 U B F2 L B2 D U' F L2 F R L F R2 D2 R L2 F B2 L' B' | 20061023 |

| 31 | 1 minute 29.12 seconds | Olivér Perge | Finally sub-90! :) Not lucky but easy to memorize. Memorization was around 25 seconds, my execution is getting better and better. Now my times mostly under 2 minutes. | 20071208 |
| 32 | 1 minute 29.68 seconds | Phil Thomas | U2 R2 U' L2 U' B2 D' L2 F2 U' L' F' D2 L' F' R2 U L B L U2 (21f) sub 90! for the #28 contest on speedsolving. | 20080713 |
| 33 | 1 minute 29.94 seconds | Ryosuke Mondo | Yeah! Sub90! Solve:M2/R2 method Memorize:Stories | 20080103 |
| 34 | 1 minute 31 seconds | Shotaro Makisumi | About 40 sec memo in this solve. I can do near 2 min regularly on nice solves, but bad CO is bad news for me. I want to be 10 again. ;) | 20050628 |
| 35 | 1 minute 37 seconds | Josh Berg | hOW did i get this???? im barely consistant and i average 4:30 if i even get it right, but sub-2 out of the blue | 20080318 |
| 36 | 1 minute 38.21 seconds | Justin Adsuara | Really easy, but not lucky. | 20071209 |
| 37 | 1 minute 39.58 seconds | Ouyang Yunqi | My first time sub-110,and it happened in Beijing Spring Open 2008,I'm very excited.It's interesting that I did 4:24 last year and I got a second, but for this, I was just the fourth. | 20080505 |
| 38 | 1 minute 39.66 seconds | Jason Baum | This is only my second sub 2. Memorization was about 40 seconds on this one. I only had to orient 4 corners and 4 edges so maybe it was a little lucky. CP was (1 8 6)(2 7 3) EP was (1 9)(2 6 12)(3 7 4 8 11 10) using Macky's number scheme. | 20080407 |
| 39 | 1 minute 40.17 seconds | Tyson Mao | R2 B' U2 B2 R' B' D2 L' B2 U L2 B R2 D' U F' L' D' L' D R' F D F' B' about 39 seconds of memorization | 20050929 |
| 40 | 1 minute 41.61 seconds | Erik Akkersdijk | Done while racing on the webcamchat witnessed by like 10 people. Scramble: R' F' L' R2 U' F' U' L B U' R L B U D2 L' F' L' D2 L' D' L' D U' R' Crazily good for me! I'm definatly improving now! My 5th sub-2 Next is sub-1:30??? I need a better corner system and better memo. De base fils! | 20080104 |
| 41 | 1 minute 44 seconds | Dennis Strehlau | Yes!!! Third time under 2 minutes!!! 1:48 min, 1:52 min and now 1:44 min!!! I am so happy!!!:):):) | 20071119 |
| 42 | 1 minute 44.92 seconds | Piotr Frankowski | n/a | 20070620 |
| 43 | 1 minute 45.82 seconds | Damian Myob | New personal best! I got lucky got to skip last move, the move was done by itself. | 20071203 |
| 44 | 1 minute 46.31 seconds | Clément Gallet | With two 1:47 the same day. I just improved my OC method, and memorisation is getting faster and faster. | 20070828 |
| 45 | 1 minute 50.94 seconds | Gilles van den Peereboom | Using Pochmann v1 method, with parity. 1:30 is possible with this method ^^ | 20071026 |
| 46 | 1 minute 51 seconds | François Sechet | Did it a few days before EC06. time was 1:51.xx, but my computer crashed inbetween and I couldn't retrieve the exact time. I did other sub2 since. | 20061023 |
| 47 | 1 minute 55.53 seconds | Piotr Kózka | I have to work on my memo. It is still around 1 minute. | 20080403 |
| 48 | 1 minute 56.95 seconds | Mike Hughey | R' D' B2 U' L2 R2 D' R B' F2 R' F D L2 F' D' R F2 L2 D B2 U R F2 D Finally sub-2 on a non-lucky solve! | 20080517 |
| 49 | 1 minute 57.90 seconds | Tim Sun | According to the rules, this just fits under non-lucky. :P CO: 3 corners done EO: 8 corners done CP: 2 corners done EP: 4 corners done :D | 20070707 |
| 50 | 1 minute 58.33 seconds | Dakota Harris | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QcJY7xPrIA | 20080519 |
| 51 | 2 minutes 2.61 seconds | Jacco Krijnen | ~40 seconds memo, using old Pochmann. Done at Mats' place. | 20080507 |
| 52 | 2 minutes 3.47 seconds | François Dellacherie | Memo = 44 secs. After a one year break, I decided to work on BF seriously. I don't stop during execution (usually 1'20"). I use a "modified" Pochmann system. Memo for edges is around 20-30 secs now, and memo for corners is between 20 secs and 1'30 depending on a number of factors. Customization of the Pochmann method can "easily" lead to sub-1'30'' (but not for slow cubers like me). | 20060527 |
| 53 | 2 minutes 3.68 seconds | Joël van Noort | This was very unexpected, I was in the train, practicing. After doing well in the BLD event in Germany, I decided to try a few solves, and I got this time the second attempt. I was very surprised to see I almost broke 2 minutes! | 20070502 |
| 54 | 2 minutes 4 seconds | Antoine Simon-Chautemps | Au retour des vacances. | 20070831 |
| 55 | 2 minutes 4.09 seconds | Danyang Chen | this isn't my best score. yesterday one of my friend told me that i could post my score on this website. so i trained for about ten times and this score is the best one of them. i am a cuber from china. and now i am a student of jinan university in guangzhou. there are many other cubers in china now. this video had been recorded about 10 days ago. | 20060309 |
| 56 | 2 minutes 7.56 seconds | Trevor Davila | Yeah. Click here to watch the video. | 20070620 |
| 57 | 2 minutes 8.30 seconds | Milo DiPaola | OP 3-cycle. No parity, 2 corners placed. hmm when should I switch method. | 20080411 |

| 60 | 2 minutes 11.55 seconds | Tomás Mansilla | Hi, I'm Tomás and I'm from Argentina. I think I'm the first person here who is able to solve the cube blindfolded. | 20050904 |
| 61 | 2 minutes 11.56 seconds | Shelley Chang | 0:49 memorization, 1:22 execution | 20051128 |
| 62 | 2 minutes 15.88 seconds | Alexei Gousev | This was a very easy solve, both to memorize and execute. I normally get like 3:30. I probably won't beat this for a while. | 20061204 |
| 63 | 2 minutes 16.97 seconds | Harris Chan | U L' U2 F' R' F2 U' B' F' D2 L' B F D2 R D' U B F D L B2 F' D U2 There were 3 correctly positioned edges (but one of them was incorrectly orientated). The Corner orientation was easy and the perm wasn't too bad. I might have been able to do faster.Using Old Pochman and Corner cycle (may be I will switch to M2?) | 20080318 |
| 64 | 2 minutes 19 seconds | Dror Vomberg | n/a | |

| 66 | 2 minutes 19.65 seconds | Craig Bouchard | I started blindfold on sunday its now Friday.hehe.6 corners 8 edges to solve. Using Stefan's Method. Corners: A fire started on the beach as the sunset and a campino was eaten on the Red Green show (latest piece solves itself). I don't use a story for edges. I got a sub-2 but it was lucky. | 20060311 |
| 67 | 2 minutes 22.73 seconds | Stefan Pochmann | Catching up a little. [I want a flying pony] | 20070218 |
| 68 | 2 minutes 23.57 seconds | Ruben Geels | should have used a better cube, almost popped. | 20070707 |
| 69 | 2 minutes 25.61 seconds | Patrick Jameson | yay! Not lucky, just easy shapes. :) I'm happy. | 20080312 |
| 70 | 2 minutes 29.39 seconds | Daniel Beyer | Set 20061128: Preceded by a 2:32.xx solve for Ryan's BLD comp | 20061128 |

| 73 | 2 minutes 35.57 seconds | Patrick Lam | I'm getting more accurate now..I have about a 80% success rate with blindfold. I hope to be able to get it around 95% in the next couple months. Thnx to Stefan's method. | 20060402 |
| 74 | 2 minutes 35.98 seconds | Teruki Miyazaki | This is the first time to get under 3 minutes. | 20060816 |
| 75 | 2 minutes 37.19 seconds | Tim Reynolds | Wow. Best time by 14 seconds. Non-lucky, but easy: Edges were two easy three-cycles and an easy five-cycle; Corners were a nasty four cycle and a swap which were easy to remember; 6 corners twisted counter-clockwise, 8 edges flipped. Didn't check memo time, but solve time felt way, way faster than usual. | 20070411 |
| 76 | 2 minutes 38.81 seconds | Kyle Allaire | trust the cube. it can't lie. | 20051127 |
| 77 | 2 minutes 40.56 seconds | Gábor Schmíz | Unfortunately I didn't save the scrambling algorythm. The memorization went pretty well it took about 1:05-1:10 to memorize it and the rest was the solving. I'm using a simple TLY-method. [invented by Stefan Pochmann afaik] | 20080120 |
| 78 | 2 minutes 46.64 seconds | Thomas Kohn | memorization was 1:06.24. but time to don the blindfold must be added, because I only closed my eyes. my first sub-3-time!! now I can try to average sub3! memorization could be faster. | 20060426 |
| 79 | 2 minutes 51.70 seconds | Mátyás Kuti | Using Stefan's method. Chek the video: http://users.atw.hu/shaipo/MOV00380.MPG | 20060830 |
| 80 | 2 minutes 53.88 seconds | Casey Pernsteiner | This was an easy solve, but not lucky. I think memorization took about 1 minute 20 seconds. | 20060102 |
| 81 | 2 minutes 56.86 seconds | James Stuber | First time under 3 minutes. I use CO, 3-cycle corners, then Pochmann Style edges+parity fix. Memorization can be much better (I use purely visual memorization) My Site. | 20060912 |
| 82 | 2 minutes 57.67 seconds | Ian Winokur | R2 B2 L2 D' B2 R' B2 F D L D' F R2 B2 L' U B' D2 B D B2 D2 U' B2 R'.sub three minutes! Whee! | 20071112 |

| 84 | 3 minutes 2.46 seconds | Mateus Moitinho de Almeida | About 1:15 to memorize, 1:45 to solve. My goal is sub2:30 and a 99% accuracy. | 20060823 |
| 85 | 3 minutes 5 seconds | Olivier Mesado | I still make too much mistakes. I would like to improve it but I don't have the time to practice.. | 20051113 |

| 93 | 3 minutes 18.02 seconds | Mike Davis | I've only been blind solving for like 3 weeks or a month so I am happy with 75 second memo. : ) See video here: 3:18.02 | 20070210 |
| 94 | 3 minutes 18.38 seconds | Jack Moseley | I tried going back to normal three cycle, and this is what happened. Memorization in about 1:45. | 2071016 |
| 95 | 3 minutes 18.99 seconds | Alex Seidler | I used to think sub-5 was GREAT, now I have my goal set at sub-3. :] I don't remember the real time, so I added the .99 | 20080428 |
| 96 | 3 minutes 22.12 seconds | Bob Burton | I had several solves that just missed by orientation that were under 4 minutes, so I was excited when this one actually was solved. Visit my site. | 20070501 |
| 97 | 3 minutes 24.89 seconds | Isaac Wappes | WOW. This is about a minute faster than my previous record! Memo was about 1:39. The scramble was B' D B' R L' B2 D' R2 F' D2 L U' F B' D F2 R2 B' F2 L' D' B2 R L' D. I love taking off the blindfold and seeing the cube solved. | 20071215 |

| 99 | 3 minutes 25.46 seconds | Masayuki Akimoto | Did this for Sunday contest on May 9. According to the recent definition, this was not lucky case but not complicated. My second best is 5 min. | |

| 105 | 3 minutes 41.32 seconds | Eric Hatch | i finally getting near 100% accuracy and the memorization is becoming much easier, i dont even think in numbers any more i do it all wish fingure movements much thanks to tyson's and macki's methods | 20060306 |

| 109 | 3 minutes 45.84 seconds | Olivier Gaucher | The scramble was easy but I don't think it's a lucky case thanks to the official rules (3 edges already at the good place). Done with Stefan Pochmann's method. [Absolut Team Member] | 20050816 |
| 110 | 3 minutes 52.82 seconds | Henrik Buus Aagaard | wow this is my first time under 4 min even first under 4 min 30. Pochmann method had to do 16 algs for edges, flipping takes a few. No corners correct. Memo in about 2 min 30 execution the rest. | 20070518 |
| 111 | 3 minutes 53 seconds | Brent Morgan | First, annual, University High School Talent Show, on stage, and nerve-racking. I was the only one to earn a 'standing ovation' and it was just classic of all time. Thanks for everyone being there, and people were just too amazed :D. Someone made a video of it, and I will surely try to load it online asap. Yes!! . I will now retire with the cube until school is over, respectively. My site!!!! | 20040331 |

| 124 | 4 minutes 28.68 seconds | Andrew Roley | I just went for broke; this was a decently easy memo for Pochmann system, and I felt satisfied with just giving the corners a once over. I found that it is easier just to shove the setup moves into the front of your mind for just long enough to do the alg rather than try to memorize them by doing them multiple times. | 20070529 |

| 138 | 5 minutes 9 seconds | Alex Lockwood | AHH man this was tough. Memorization time about 1:27, execution time was about 3:12ish. http://youtube.com/watch?v=E8vTQmnJnv8 My method is at http://www.cubefreak.net | 20070628 |

| 143 | 5 minutes 40.38 seconds | John Louis | I did 10 solves 3*3*3 bld today. The best I got was this. My fingering is very very poor and not at all no where near world class. I have to improve my memorisation time also. I am enjoying it. | 20061001 |
| 144 | 5 minutes 58.72 seconds | Michael Fung | Timed with "The ultimate Rubik's cube® timer version 2.1". I used CO, EO, CP and EP. The scramble: B'R'FL2RFLULF'LB'L2BU2L'URB'L2D2LR'U2B2. | 20051112 |
| 145 | 6 minutes 11.37 seconds | David Aguila | Great considering the last time I timed myself it was about 12min. I hope to get somewhere between 4:30 and 5min. | 20070323 |

| 150 | 6 minutes 48.49 seconds | Doug Li | My first timed and successful blindfold attempt in a very long time. I used the 2nd generation stackmat timer I recently got. | 20051126 |
| 151 | 6 minutes 51.55 seconds | Anthony Benis | I recently picked 3x3x3 BLD up after taking a very long break (couple of months.) from it. I used to be solving in 13+ minutes, now I'm solving in 7 - 9 minutes. I've improved my memory method and parities are no problem now. I think my times are okay for the 10 minute limit in competition, I would just be happy solving it officially let alone getting a good time. This solve had memo done at about 3 1/2 minutes (I like to go over everything just incase) and I take my time when actually solving. I think if I get more confident that I actually memorized everything the first time through and go a little faster, I can see sub 5 1/2 minutes coming! | 20070830 |

| 158 | 8 minutes 38.46 seconds | Timmie Wong | This was one of my first few successful solves, too! It was a pretty easy case, if I can remember correctly.now I just gotta get my memorization down consistenly. <(x_x)> | 20050418 |

| 162 | 9 minutes 42.84 seconds | Robert Schlicht | First time blindsolving with a timer. The time would have probably been sub-9 if I hadn't been so distracted by the ticking of my dad's clock. | 20080624 |

| 164 | 10 minutes 55 seconds | Joe Allen | Done in the library while "studying" for an o-chem exam, this was my first time completing the solve after months of practicing different systems and I'm just glad there was someone else there to witness and time me. 5:55 to memorize, 5:00 to solve. | 20040301 |

| 181 | 27 minutes 57 seconds | Berenice Ophelia | I am verrrrrrry slow when comparing to the boy bernett orlando. I am his sister learning the rudiments of blindsolving from him. I am also following what Mr. Stefan Pochmann is teaching him. Still I can not beat him. I admire his dedication and commitment.I am proud to be his sister. | 20050623 |
| 182 | 31 minutes 27 seconds | Nathaniel Day | I use the system made by Stefan Pochmann. It took a while but hey, I did it!!!!! It took me 10 min 30 sec to set up the cycles, about 11 minutes to memorize, and a little less than 10 to execute. I am so happy!!!!!!!!!!!! | 20050613 |
