Jade Geels

3×3 one-handed · top 3.3% of 73,695 all-time · competing since June 2016 · 2016GEEL01

Jade Geels has been competing for 10 years. Their best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 12.24, set at Dutch Nationals 2018, puts them in the top 3.3% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 25th in the Netherlands. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 48 competitions since June 2016, they have put 1,496 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, their 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 84% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Their 3×3 best has come down from 15.57 in June 2016 to 10.09, a 35% improvement. Jade has entered 48 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
