Torjus Iveland

3×3 · top 7.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since October 2015 · 2015IVEL01

Torjus Iveland has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.11, set at Norwegian Championship 2018, puts him in the top 7.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 135th in Norway. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since October 2015, he has put 379 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 56% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.94 in October 2015 to 10.11, a 40% improvement. Torjus has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
