Jonathan Pike

3×3 · top 3.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2023 · 2023PIKE01

Jonathan Pike has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.10, set at St. Augustine 2024, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,684th in the United States. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since January 2023, he has put 169 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 98% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.51 in January 2023 to 8.10, a 44% improvement. Jonathan has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
