3×3 · top 8.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016CHON04
Jason Chong has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.28, set at Eugene 3x3 Mania 2017, puts him in the top 8.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,561st in the United States. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since May 2016, he has put 167 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 65% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.71 in May 2016 to 10.28, a 42% improvement. Jason has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
