Get ready to be amazed! The world of competitive Rubik's Cube solving has a new, incredibly young star: 8-year-old Xuanyi Geng from China. At the Beijing Winter 2026 competition, Geng didn't just break one world record, but two, solidifying his place in cubing history.
Geng achieved a stunning new world record for the best average time in solving five 3x3x3 Rubik's Cubes, clocking in at an astonishing 3.84 seconds. This record is particularly impressive as it demonstrates consistent skill and speed, rather than just a single lucky solve. This feat builds on his previous achievement at the spring tournament where he secured the fastest single cube solve at 3.05 seconds, surpassing notable cubers like Yiheng Wang and Max Park.
What makes Geng's success even more remarkable is the unconventional method he employed. He utilised a complex ZV method, first theorised over two decades ago, which requires memorising around 800 algorithms. While the method was once considered too impractical for competition, Geng has mastered it, combining it with his own unique manipulation techniques. His journey in the record-breaking average solve was an epic comeback, starting with a slower 5.09-second solve, but followed by increasingly faster times of 3.96, 3.71, and 3.84 seconds. Crucially, his final solve of 3.37 seconds propelled him to victory with the 3.84-second average, even more impressively, he achieved this using a method other than the commonly dominant Fridrich (CFOP) method. This dual triumph of the fastest single solve and the best average, using a novel approach, marks a significant shift in the competitive cubing landscape. It's reported that Geng's achievements have earned him approximately $14,000, but the true prize is undoubtedly the global recognition of his extraordinary talent.
