Evan Ruddick

3×3 · top 6.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2019 · 2019RUDD01

Evan Ruddick has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.70, set at Bay Area Speedcubin' 23 2020, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,642nd in the United States. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since January 2019, he has put 78 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.50 in January 2019 to 9.70, a 55% improvement. Evan has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
