Carlo Glod has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.70, set at Tirol Open 2019, puts him in the top 2.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2nd in Luxembourg. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 47 competitions since March 2017, he has put 2,750 official solves on the record across 16 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 75% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.43 in March 2017 to 8.90, a 38% improvement. Carlo has entered 47 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
