Gabriella Spain has been competing for 16 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 36.34, set at Princeton Fall 2011, puts her in the top 72.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 43,911th in the United States. Across 9 competitions since August 2010, she has put 37 official solves on the record across one event.

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.
