3×3 · top 7.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025TURN03

Josiah Turner has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.05, set at DFW Cubing Spring 2025, puts him in the top 7.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,175th in the United States. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since April 2025, he has put 27 official solves on the record across two events.

Josiah has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
