Joey Abacherli has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.31, set at Vegas Cubing Winter 2026, puts him in the top 5.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,129th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2024, he has put 137 official solves on the record across eight events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 17.56 in November 2024 to 9.31, a 47% improvement. Joey has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
