Ander Rodríguez Pereda has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.57, set at Bilbao Open 2024, puts him in the top 5.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 191st in Spain. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2023, he has put 234 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 33.63 in March 2023 to 20.20, a 40% improvement. Ander has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
