Rubik's Cube: Moves in 1 minute

Place	Result	Name	Quote	Date
1	906 moves	Adam Wojtyla	Well. I thought 900 moves is a barrier which cannot be defeated. Now, I think 960 moves is all what I can do! Cube was solved 37 times, i did 4-move algorithm 226 times and my average is 15,1 mps.	20060515
2	768 moves	Péter Róka	n/a	20080224
3	741 moves	Johannes Laire	R U R' U'	20060510
4	736 moves	Brent Morgan	I did this right after lubing my cube. I did a 4 move algorithm 184 times. (4)(184) = 736. This can be beaten. Visit my site!	20060224
5	732 moves	Jay Woo	I did it on the way to pleasantville and I did 183 4 move algorithms and that was my best so far. I had finger cramp.	20071106
6	724 moves	Mike Tryczak	Using RUR'U' 181 times. A sustained 12 twists per second, I don't think I can go much faster. Unfortunately I didn't get a video of this one, but my webcam is pretty low quality anyway. An old video of 676 moves.	20050611
7	720 moves	Blazej Morgala	Using a magical algorithm of Adam Wojtyla ;P Few days of training. I think I can do more than 800 moves. In this, I've got ~12 tps. But in the beginning it's about 18 tps ;)	20071213
8	672 moves	Marcos Kawakami	n/a	20070529
9	664 moves	Norbert Hantos	Doing R' F R U' 166 times. It was pretty hard in the end. I will be faster!	20060507
10	648 moves	Ryan Komrska	Yep.. I'll proboly never beat this. 27 cycles of R U Ri Ui.	20070725
11	624 moves	Thomas Watiotienne	I did [RU] 26 times but my left thumb hurts so much!! I know I can be better!	20080107
11	624 moves	Tyler Yarnelli	R U' R' U	20080729
13	620 moves	Joël van Noort	RUR'U'RUR'U'RUR'U'RUR'U'RUR'U' etc. Could have been a little more if I didn't have a piece POP that took me 2 seconds to correct.	20070119
14	614 moves	Anssi Vanhala	I've done 129 with feet.	20061223
15	612 moves	Derrick Eide	WOW! I didn't think that i was capable of this. I used one of my other cubes and wow just look at the difference! (^^;	20061208
15	612 moves	Ronald Herbert Dunphy	faster.	20071204
17	600 moves	Stijn van Gils	I did L U' L' U exactly 150 times	20060208
18	592 moves	Jaroslaw Krzyzanowski	my left thumb..	20060914
19	564 moves	Olivér Nagy	I used the U R' U' R algorithm and I repeated it 141 times. I've got it on video, witch you can find on my homepage. Rubikkocka.hu	20060324
20	556 moves	Alan Tan	Using R U R' U' XP I'm surprised. I didn't think I was this fast =] Then again it's a reptitive alg. so it makes sense >.	20080626
21	542 moves	Joseph Liao	I decided to give this a try, I am not very dexterious but I can do this move pretty long: B'R'UR (props to Macky for this algorithm :)) My site.
22	540 moves	Erik Akkersdijk	Doing BR'B'R 135 times. Improvement is required.	20060526
23	528 moves	Bob Burton	I did RUR'U' 132 times in 59.xx seconds. My cube still needs a bit of lube, though. A minute is too long to do this. :P	20050728
24	520 moves	Chris Hardwick	8 move alg (R'UR'U'RU'RU) repeated 65 times.
25	504 moves	John Tamanas	I did it R' F R U' 21 times very good for me.	20070923
26	480 moves	Jacob Rueth	Could have done a lot more if my wrists were being nice. Don't worry I sent them to the corner so hopefully they'll do better next time.
26	480 moves	Anthony Benis	I did R U R' U' and saw the cube solved 20 times (every 24 moves).	20070814
28	476 moves	Stephen Potvin	been a while since i beat my old record. But i finally did it, and by a large margin	20060210
29	468 moves	Nico Elayda	Did R U R' U' 117 times. I slowed down on the last few seconds my wrists were tired.	20080127
30	456 moves	Sunil Pedapudi	owwww..I beat my old record that I set yesterday.19*24 moves I gotta keep getting better..or else! right? am I right? =D
30	456 moves	Hadley Sheffield	Ow. My hands are really sore now.	20080415
30	456 moves	Jeffrey Zhang	7.6 mps :) Weird thing was, my fingers didn't hurt. A loose cube helps. Mine is so loose the cube popped 3 pieces when I dropped it :(	20080206
33	452 moves	Brad Simpson	L'ULF' 113 times. Could be better. 7.53 moves/second	20080206
34	448 moves	Alex Lockwood	I did the 4 move algorithm R U R' U a total of 112 times. Definitely room for improvement. The last 10 seconds is tough, but I still like this better than actually solving the thing :p.	20070531
35	448 seconds	Ben Zoller	RUR'U'	20080626
36	444 moves	Richard Patterson	Using an '' adjusted'' corner orientation R U R' U R U2 R' U'. Stricter rules showing the hurt already :P
37	436 moves	Evan Gates	repeated R U R' U' 109 times took a couple times to do it without popping and ouch that hurts.
38	428 moves	Takuma Shirahase	My site	20070617
39	425 moves	Ummon Karpe	Now that I got my cube4you cube decided to give ti a try. The standard LUL'U' (I am left handed). Hoping to get 480 per minute (two sets per second).	20071117
40	424 moves	Josh Berg	this category is harder than i thought. R U R' U' 106 times.	20070814
41	420 moves	Pierra Gagnon	105 RUR'U' in one minute. My hands hurt	20080716
42	413 moves	Robert Schlicht	I got this yesterday, and my hands have been cramping all day today.	20080116
43	408 moves	Manan Thakkar	Used R U R' U'. Tried it three times, got 404 the first time, 408 the second time, and 407 the third time. I can still feel the pain.	20070404
43	408 moves	Josh Smith	First try, 29 T perms.	20071209
45	406 moves	Daniel De Vera	L' U' L U 101.5 times = 406 moves. this made me sweat.	20070609
46	404 moves	Nathaniel Christian	Just did RUR'U' a bunch of times. Coulda done better if my hand muscles didn't catch on first in the last 10 secs. LIONS ALL THE WAY!
47	401 moves	James Willoughby	RUR'U' 100 times and add 1 Just lubed up the cube and thought i'd give it a shot or two =)	20080129
48	396 moves	Aaron McGhie	R'URU' 99 times. So close to 400 moves	20060626
49	395 moves	Lian Park	did the alg RUR'U'	20070808
50	386 moves	Kenneth Gustavsson	L' U' L U 96,5 times = 6.4 m/s.	20060920
51	370 moves	Alex Kumaki	n/a	20080224
52	366 moves	Michael Atkinson	After realizing that I could do 207 moves one handed per minute, and 250 two handed per minute, I realized I had to up my two handed time. I succeeded.
53	361 moves	Timo Karvonen	3rd try.	20070512
54	360 moves	Ryan Jew	I did R U R' U' 90 times. My hand HURT.	20080414
54	360 moves	Chris Meusburger	Yeah! R U R' U' works a lot better now. I got the algorithm 80 times and saw the cube solved 16 times! My hands are burning!	20080724
56	357 moves	Wuqiong Fan	119 RUR' done on a not lubed cube, I could probably get 500 on a good cube.	20071103
57	343 moves	Adam Sherwood	Repeated the Petrus Sune 49 times. This hurts.
58	342 moves	Noah Hevey	[R'URU'] x 85.5	20060423
59	338 moves	Bordage Bertrand	I did 8 moves 169 times from Rouen, France. It was not very difficult to do it. You can find an old video of 888 moves. Note from Chris: The algorithm used was essentially (U4R4) which counts as only 2 moves	20040410
60	336 moves	Adam Tonks	Did R U R'U' 14 times. Probably could do better.	20071027
61	328 moves	Andrew Roley	82*(r,B,R',U) follow up a pull with the trigger finger on B with a pull with the middle finger on U. Only got stuck a couple of times.	20070507
62	320 moves	Randy Fithian	I am getting better at this.	20060326
63	296 moves	Hanson So	I did the moves R'URU' at a resteraunt. I'm proud of myself for this accomplishment.
64	280 moves	Christopher Muller	using R' U R U'	20080511
65	274 moves	Bouvier Arnaud	This is very good !!!!!! But I can do better. I did it the 6 april 2004 from Rouen, in France. I did a 8 moves algorithm 137 times and I am going to break my record after. Note from Chris: The algorithm used was essentially (U4R4) which counts as only 2 moves	20040406
66	264 moves	Alesander Puras	I use the L'U'L U moves. It's a low ranking but take to account that I have 15 years. (This hurts a lot.)	20070925
67	256 moves	Eirik Strøm	n/a	20080126
68	250 moves	Chris Moyer-Grice	I can do better.
69	240 moves	Guillaume Lamontagne	Nothing better than ham to lube a cube!
