Chin Jun Youth
2×2 · top 4.8% of 186,767 all-time · competing since November 2023 · 2023YOUT01
Chin Jun Youth has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.01, set at PHS Johor Cube Open 2025, puts him in the top 4.8% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 109th in Malaysia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2023, he has put 105 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 10.01 in November 2023 to 2.01, an 80% improvement. Chin has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
