Aarush Anantha Prakash has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.83, set at Ottawa 3x3x3 Fall C 2024, puts him in the top 10.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,130th in India. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since January 2020, he has put 76 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.43 in January 2020 to 10.83, a 49% improvement. Aarush has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
