Vijay Jaidev Mahambre

3×3 · top 17.0% of 288,433 all-time · competing since February 2015 · 2015MAHA01

Vijay Jaidev Mahambre has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.84, set at Durgesha Open 1.0 2017, puts him in the top 17.0% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,111th in India. Across 7 competitions since February 2015, he has put 226 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.16 in February 2015 to 12.84, a 29% improvement. Vijay has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
