Vitaliy Sheshko has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 10.08, set at Spring Cube In Minsk 2018, puts him in the top 1.1% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2nd in Belarus. Until December 2011, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since August 2014, he has put 532 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 52% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.95 in August 2014 to 8.68, a 33% improvement. Vitaliy has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
