DMV Speed Puzzling Championship
I competed in SpeedPuzzling.com’s DMV (DC, Maryland, and Virginia) championship in 5 events: Individual, Individual Puzzle Pyramid, Pairs, Pairs Relay, and Teams.
Our first unveiling of our Nationals 2026 Space Jam-inspired jerseys!
In addition to the more normal Individual, Pairs, and Teams competitions, this championship also had two more fun competitions:
-
Pairs Relay is a competition held on two puzzles simultaneously — you and your pairs partner work independently on the puzzles, and every 5 minutes, you switch puzzles.
-
Individual Puzzle Pyramid is a knockout-style competition, where you start on a 100pc puzzle, and the top competitors move on. You then advance to a 200pc puzzle, then a 300pc puzzle.
