Andy Chiang has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 11.70, set at Wrap It Up Barrie 2024, puts him in the top 2.6% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 53rd in Canada. Until August 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 14 competitions since April 2016, he has put 260 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 18% around a typical one; 98% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.13 in April 2016 to 8.99, a 44% improvement. Andy has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
