Jael Riggenbach

3×3 · top 3.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2011 · 2011RIGG02

Jael Riggenbach has been competing for 15 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.22, set at UNSA Speedcubing Primavera 2023, puts her in the top 3.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 115th in Peru. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 83 competitions since April 2011, she has put 1,374 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 60% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 23.06 in April 2011 to 8.22, a 64% improvement. Jael has entered 83 competitions, more competitions than 99% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
