Low Jia Wei

3×3 · top 2.8% of 288,433 all-time · competing since August 2022 · 2022WEIL02

Low Jia Wei has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.01, set at UoSM Cube Day 2023, puts him in the top 2.8% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 136th in Malaysia. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since August 2022, he has put 100 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. Low has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
