Xiang Fei (费翔)
3×3 · top 7.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2015 · 2015FEIX01
Xiang Fei (费翔) has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.12, set at Zhengzhou Open 2018, puts him in the top 7.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,051st in China. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since April 2015, he has put 139 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.25 in April 2015 to 10.12, a 17% improvement. Xiang has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
