Jean-Louis Membrives
3×3 · top 10.0% of 288,433 all-time · competing since April 2019 · 2019MEMB01
Jean-Louis Membrives has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.82, set at Charente Open 2025, puts him in the top 10.0% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 536th in France. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since April 2019, he has put 398 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.51 in April 2019 to 10.82, a 47% improvement. He has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
