Abhash Rajbhandari has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.72, set at Cubing Chitwan 2019, puts him in the top 3.7% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Nepal. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since December 2017, he has put 279 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His Skewb best has come down from 6.16 in December 2017 to 2.72, a 56% improvement. Abhash has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
