Oliver Aufderheide

3×3 · top 9.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2024 · 2024AUFD01

Oliver Aufderheide has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.68, set at Spokane Summer 2026, puts him in the top 9.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,175th in the United States. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since June 2024, he has put 43 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% 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 15.03 in June 2024 to 10.68, a 29% improvement. Oliver has entered two competitions.

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.
