Austin Moore has been competing for 17 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.44, set at SCC Summer 2017, puts him in the top 0.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 517th in the United States. Until May 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since June 2009, he has put 284 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 10.86 in June 2009 to 6.44, a 41% improvement. Austin has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
