3×3 · top 14.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2018 · 2018JAAF01

Mehdi Jaafour has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.11, set at Morocco Autumn 2018, puts him in the top 14.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 19th in Morocco. Across 3 competitions since April 2018, he has put 61 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.97 in April 2018 to 12.11, a 36% improvement. Mehdi 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.
