Rohan Austin Arun
Pyraminx · top 9.9% of 129,321 all-time · competing since February 2018 · 2018ARUN01
Rohan Austin Arun has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.43, set at Singapore Cube Championship 2019, puts him in the top 9.9% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,552nd in the United States. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since February 2018, he has put 106 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 24.06 in February 2018 to 15.38, a 36% improvement. Rohan has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
