Daniel Shin
3×3 · top 8.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2016 · 2016SHIN06
Daniel Shin has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.19, set at Berkeley Summer 2018, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,409th in the United States. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since June 2016, he has put 84 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 93% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. Daniel has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
