Julian Lowery has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.33, set at National Capital Region 2018, puts him in the top 18.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,761st in Canada. Across 5 competitions since May 2016, he has put 87 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 37.56 in May 2016 to 13.33, a 65% improvement. Julian has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
