3×3 · top 19.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2024 · 2024JINX01
Xinbo Jin (金鑫博) has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.45, set at Shanghai Summer 2026, puts him in the top 19.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7,403rd in China. Across 6 competitions since April 2024, he has put 96 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 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 6.94 in April 2024 to 3.96, a 43% improvement. Xinbo has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
