Daniel Lambert has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 21.22, set at Palmerston North 2016, puts him in the top 43.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 893rd in New Zealand. Across 4 competitions since July 2016, he has put 31 official solves on the record across two events.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
