Christian Schmidt Danelund

2×2 · top 3.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since September 2025 · 2025DANE05

Christian Schmidt Danelund has been competing for 11 months. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.82, set at Aalborg Spring 2026, puts him in the top 3.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 54th in Denmark. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since September 2025, he has put 179 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 54% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.34 in September 2025 to 10.90, a 24% improvement. Christian has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
