Abhishek A. Singal

3×3 · top 3.7% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2017 · 2017SING82

Abhishek A. Singal has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.49, set at Phoenix Marketcity Cube Challenge 2019, puts him in the top 3.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 364th in India. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since December 2017, he has put 159 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.48 in December 2017 to 8.49, a 51% improvement. Abhishek has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
