Shukan Ji (嵇殊侃) has been competing for 9 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.36, set at Beijing Spring Open 2026, puts him in the top 5.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,214th in China. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since November 2025, he has put 60 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 10.95 in November 2025 to 9.36, a 15% improvement. Shukan 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.
