Jules Graham has been competing for 7 years. Their best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.16, set at New Zealand Nationals 2023, puts them in the top 0.12% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in New Zealand. Until June 2018, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 20 competitions since February 2020, they have put 920 official solves on the record across 15 events.

Their 3×3 best has come down from 35.02 in February 2020 to 8.18, a 77% improvement. Jules has entered 20 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
