Jan Dimitri Portugal

2×2 · top 1.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016PORT05

Jan Dimitri Portugal has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.34, set at Antipolo City Cube Open 2018, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 36th in the Philippines. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since May 2016, he has put 142 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 80% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.30 in May 2016 to 10.10, an 11% improvement. Jan has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
