Vaibhav Vijay Tare has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 17.61, set at SCMU Juhu Open 2015, puts him in the top 32.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,489th in India. Across 4 competitions since January 2013, he has put 62 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 40.87 in January 2013 to 17.61, a 57% improvement. Vaibhav 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.
