Aayan Krishna Gogoi

Skewb · top 4.9% of 73,281 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016GOGO01

Aayan Krishna Gogoi has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.99, set at Rongghor Cube Open 2024, puts him in the top 4.9% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 115th in India. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since May 2016, he has put 317 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 90% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:06.67 in May 2016 to 13.49, an 80% improvement. Aayan has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
