Davide Arnesano

Pyraminx · top 0.2% of 129,321 all-time · competing since November 2018 · 2018ARNE04

Davide Arnesano has been competing for 8 years. Their best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.27, set at Rubik's Italian Championship 2024, puts them in the top 0.2% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7th in Italy. Until January 2018, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 60 competitions since November 2018, they have put 3,556 official solves on the record across 17 events. Solve to solve, their 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 78% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Their 3×3 best has come down from 22.06 in November 2018 to 7.73, a 65% improvement. Davide has entered 60 competitions, more competitions than 99% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
