Robert Schrader
3×3 · top 7.3% of 288,433 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025SCHR01
Robert Schrader has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.92, set at Cubing in Oud IJsselmuiden 2025, puts him in the top 7.3% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 197th in the Netherlands. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since April 2025, he has put 33 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. Robert has entered two 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.
