Tomohiro Tanno (丹野智博)
3×3 one-handed · top 4.7% of 73,695 all-time · competing since November 2008 · 2008TANN02
Tomohiro Tanno (丹野智博) has been competing for 18 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 13.16, set at Japan Contest 2012, puts him in the top 4.7% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 53rd in Japan. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2008, he has put 98 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, steadier than 99% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.87 in November 2008 to 10.90, a 31% improvement. Tomohiro has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
