Stefan Bolt
3×3 · top 5.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2022 · 2022BOLT01
Stefan Bolt has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.23, set at Swiss Nationals 2024, puts him in the top 5.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 69th in Switzerland. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since July 2022, he has put 170 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.42 in July 2022 to 9.23, a 57% improvement. Stefan has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
