Kaining Jiang (江恺宁) has been competing for a year. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 6.06, set at Beijing Winter 2026, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 150th in China. Until July 2011, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since December 2024, he has put 24 official solves on the record across one event. His Clock best has come down from 7.18 in December 2024 to 6.06, a 16% improvement. Kaining has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
