Ethan Haldeman

3×3 · top 12.7% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2023 · 2023HALD03

Ethan Haldeman has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 11.66, set at Tacoma Summer 2024, puts him in the top 12.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 6,822nd in the United States. Across 9 competitions since August 2023, he has put 80 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 24.40 in August 2023 to 11.66, a 52% improvement. Ethan has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
