2×2 · top 8.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2024 · 2024PARI02
Caleb Z. Parish has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.46, set at Wichita Air Capital Cubing 2026, puts him in the top 8.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,352nd in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since March 2024, he has put 156 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 65% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.11 in March 2024 to 10.78, a 40% improvement. Caleb has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
