3×3 · top 38.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2016 · 2016SANR01

Caden Sanrow has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 19.50, set at Thousand Oaks Cubing Open 2019, puts him in the top 38.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 21,772nd in the United States. Across 6 competitions since August 2016, he has put 38 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 46.54 in August 2016 to 19.50, a 58% improvement. Caden has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
