Ravi Shah has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.41, set at CubingUSA Southern Championship 2019, puts him in the top 8.1% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,238th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since June 2018, he has put 162 official solves on the record across eight events.

Ravi has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, Pyraminx. 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.
