3×3 · top 8.9% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2024 · 2024AYDI02

Shopnil Aydin has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.49, set at Lakewood Fall 2024, puts him in the top 8.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,893rd in the United States. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since May 2024, he has put 47 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.27 in May 2024 to 10.49, a 36% improvement. Shopnil has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
