Nick Sharma

3×3 · top 5.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025SHAR19

Nick Sharma has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.07, set at BC Championship 2026, puts him in the top 5.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 482nd in Canada. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since April 2025, he has put 114 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.88 in April 2025 to 9.07, a 24% improvement. Nick has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
