Eli DeJong has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 5.52, set at Pretzel Mania Denver 2024, puts him in the top 16.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,402nd in the United States. Across 7 competitions since April 2023, he has put 120 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 50% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 32.80 in April 2023 to 19.80, a 40% improvement. Eli 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.
