Aarav Dangi has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.48, set at Kota Cube Festival 2025, puts him in the top 2.1% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 113th in India. Until January 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since August 2023, he has put 688 official solves on the record across twelve events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 16.70 in August 2023 to 8.69, a 48% improvement. Aarav has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
