Sanjay Krishnan

3×3 · top 8.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2014 · 2014KRIS03

Sanjay Krishnan has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.18, set at Shaastra Cube Open 2018, puts him in the top 8.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 895th in India. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since January 2014, he has put 59 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.08 in January 2014 to 10.18, a 47% improvement. Sanjay 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.
