Daniel Forero
3×3 · top 3.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2024 · 2024PERE20
Daniel Forero has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.27, set at Unicentro Cúcuta 2024, puts him in the top 3.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 25th in Venezuela. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since March 2024, he has put 131 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. Daniel has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
