Jakub Zapart

2×2 · top 3.0% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2023 · 2023ZAPA02

Jakub Zapart has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.69, set at Bednary Open 2023, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 287th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since March 2023, he has put 291 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 86% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.36 in March 2023 to 9.44, a 39% improvement. Jakub has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
