Vikram Sundar has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.99, set at CubingUSA Nationals 2023, puts him in the top 4.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 344th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 18 competitions since May 2022, he has put 248 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 29.59 in May 2022 to 9.43, a 68% improvement. Vikram has entered 18 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
