Caleb Andersen
3×3 blindfolded · top 7.5% of 12,178 all-time · competing since November 2025 · 2025ANDE24
Caleb Andersen has been competing for 10 months. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 42.52, set at Corning Summer 2026, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 148th in the United States. Until August 2009, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since November 2025, he has put 146 official solves on the record across 13 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 84% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. Caleb has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
