Jona Nolåkers has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.90, set at Swedish Decathlon Challenge 2017, puts him in the top 4.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 156th in Sweden. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2016, he has put 120 official solves on the record across six events.

Jona has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
