Cody Ho

3×3 · top 4.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2016 · 2016HOCO01

Cody Ho has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.85, set at Tacoma Summer 2024, puts him in the top 4.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,518th in the United States. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since November 2016, he has put 116 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.74 in November 2016 to 8.85, a 61% improvement. Cody has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
