3×3 · top 2.9% of 288,433 all-time · competing since November 2024 · 2024TOIT01
Jonaldro du Toit has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.04, set at GAN WCA African Championship 2026, puts him in the top 2.9% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 27th in South Africa. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2024, he has put 178 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 67% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.76 in November 2024 to 8.04, a 46% improvement. Jonaldro 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.
