Justin Delahunty
2×2 · top 2.6% of 189,179 all-time · competing since June 2023 · 2023DELA03
Justin Delahunty has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.60, set at Waterloo Favourites Autumn 2023, puts him in the top 2.6% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 169th in Canada. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since June 2023, he has put 157 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 81% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.88 in June 2023 to 8.74, a 26% improvement. Justin has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
