3×3 · top 10.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2016 · 2016MOYA01
Carlos Molina Moya has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.84, set at WCA European Championship 2018, puts him in the top 10.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 395th in Spain. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since June 2016, he has put 212 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 19% around a typical one; 99% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.03 in June 2016 to 10.84, a 32% improvement. Carlos has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
