Brads won the top title on the 3x3 (regular) Rubik’s Cube, the Pyraminx, and the Skewb.
He solved the Pyraminx in 1.68 seconds, setting a new North American record for a single-solve of that puzzle. He broke the old record of 1.71 seconds, which he set in 2013. He is also the world record holder for the Pyraminx, with an average solve time of 2.56 seconds -- a record he set at an official competition in October 2014.
Brads' goal was to finish in the top 3 for the 3x3 Rubik's Cube competition, which he did with an average solve time of 8.33 seconds.
“It feels insane," Brads said, according to the release. "I can’t believe I actually did it. I won by just .01 [seconds].”
Brads, a sophomore at Xenia Christian High School, was the 2013 Pyraminx World Champion and 2014 Pyraminx National Champion, but had never been on the podium for the 3x3 Rubik’s Cube in a national or world competition until Sunday.
