Bo He (何博)
3×3 · top 6.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2017 · 2017HEBO01
Bo He (何博) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.66, set at Wuhan Open 2019, puts him in the top 6.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,531st in China. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2017, he has put 99 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 29.76 in March 2017 to 9.66, a 68% improvement. Bo has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
