Kabya Ratna Sthapit has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Megaminx: a personal-best single of 45.78, set at Radiant Summer Cubing Nepal 2026, puts him in the top 3.4% of the 34,786 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1st in Nepal. Until April 2011, no official Megaminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since December 2023, he has put 265 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.56 in December 2023 to 10.72, a 21% improvement. Kabya 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.
