Help Tom get to the Rubik's Cube World Championship in Paris, France.

Wellington

My name is Tom Nelson. I'm a freelance Graphic Designer, who about five years ago fell into a little hobby called "speedcubing".

After getting more and more hooked, I broke continental records for the 4x4 and 5x5 cubes blindfolded, six times in 2016. I am ranked top 10 in the world for these 2 events, as well as top 20 in the world for 3x3 multi-blind.

I would love the opportunity to represent NZ at the world championship in Paris in July. I stand a good chance at placing top 3 in any of my main 3 events and believe it would be an amazing experience either way.

Use of funds
