Ábris Galler Dominates One-Handed Solving and Classic Puzzles at CCM Winter Open 2025English

A single hand flying across turning faces requires an uncommon balance of fingertip control, table manipulation, and rapid lookahead. In Baltar, Paredes, Porto, Portugal, Ábris Galler put on a masterclass in this exacting discipline, capturing the 3x3x3 One-Handed title with a dominant winning average of 13.18 seconds and a best single of 12.29. Galler finished well clear of Pedro Azevedo, who secured second with 16.89, while Henrique B. de Souza claimed third in 17.15 among the 29 competitors who took on the single-handed challenge.

The one-handed contest was part of a packed schedule at the CCM Winter Open 2025, held on December 13, 2025 at www.colegiocasamae.pt. A total of 43 competitors gathered for the WCA competition, contesting nine rounds across six distinct events. While the technical demands of one-handed solving set the tone, the overall speedcubing action in 2025 showcased sharp execution across both classic cubes and specialty polyhedra, delivering competitive drama from early heats through the final rounds.

Beyond his one-handed triumph, Galler also captured top honors in the standard 3x3x3 Cube, where the classic Rubik's Cube tests raw efficiency. Across two rounds featuring the entire 43-person roster, Galler logged a winning average of 8.71 seconds along with the round best single of 7.76. The 3x3 results stayed tight throughout the final, with Azevedo earning the runner-up spot at an 8.93 average and Martim Carvalho locking up third place with a 9.93 mark.

Galler completed a triple crown of victories by securing the 4x4x4 Cube crown. In a single round contested by 30 competitors, he delivered a winning average of 35.83 seconds and the fastest single of the event at 28.97. Azevedo once again mounted a strong challenge to take second place with an average of 37.47, closely followed by Eduardo Pires, who rounded out the podium in 38.03 seconds during an intense battle among top Portuguese solvers.

Pedro Azevedo found his own winning rhythm across the shorter and more complex twisty puzzles, leading the podium count for the home nation. In the 2x2x2 Cube, Azevedo claimed victory across two rounds and 34 competitors with a 2.71 average and a 2.03 best single, besting Luís Pedro Gomes Costa, who took second with 3.38, and Francisco Manuel Magalhães Portela da Silva, who finished third in 3.48. Azevedo added a gold in Megaminx, taking the single-round event in 42.39 seconds, ahead of Pires at 1:08.02 and Costa at 1:08.48.

The Pyraminx brought further excitement across its two rounds of competition. Martim Carvalho topped the 30-player field with a blistering 2.84 winning average and a single of 2.32 seconds. Luís Pedro Gomes Costa secured another silver medal with a solid 3.32 average, while Carolina Pereira Dias completed the podium in 3.94 seconds. Across the board, Portuguese competitors dominated the podium tally with 14 top-three finishes, alongside three for Hungary and one for Brazil.

Away from the top steps of the podium, several competitors delivered massive leaps forward in their personal records.
