Ido Kahana

3×3 · top 0.39% of 288,433 all-time · competing since July 2023 · 2023KAHA01

Ido Kahana has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 5.83, set at Hannukubing Israel 2024, puts him in the top 0.39% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 12th in Israel. Until June 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since July 2023, he has put 470 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 76% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.14 in July 2023 to 5.83, a 36% improvement. Ido has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
