Reese Griffiths

2×2 · top 7.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since February 2024 · 2024GRIF02

Reese Griffiths has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.37, set at Colorado Mountain Tour - Evergreen 2024, puts him in the top 7.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,031st in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since February 2024, he has put 92 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 8.79 in February 2024 to 2.37, a 73% improvement. Reese has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
