2×2 · top 7.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2022 · 2022BUKK02

Sanskriti Bukkapatnam has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.39, set at Chicago Area Twist Spring B 2024, puts her in the top 7.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,103rd in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 15 competitions since October 2022, she has put 307 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 85% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 23.44 in October 2022 to 13.83, a 41% improvement. Sanskriti has entered 15 competitions, more competitions than 95% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. 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.
