Lean Stadler has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 3.37, set at Belli in Zona 2026, puts him in the top 1.3% of the 32,817 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Switzerland. Until March 2019, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 46 competitions since October 2017, he has put 2,055 official solves on the record across 13 events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 1:01.56 in October 2017 to 8.80, an 86% improvement. Lean has entered 46 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
