Owen Harbo

3×3 · top 8.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2021 · 2021HARB01

Owen Harbo has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.37, set at BC Cubing Springback A 2022, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 791st in Canada. Until February 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since December 2021, he has put 133 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.58 in December 2021 to 10.37, a 33% improvement. Owen has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
