Dominik Kobinski

3×3 blindfolded · top 0.53% of 12,178 all-time · competing since July 2019 · 2019KOBI01

Dominik Kobinski has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 16.55, set at Gliwice Open 2025, puts him in the top 0.53% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Poland. Until December 2018, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 42 competitions since July 2019, he has put 283 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 blindfolded best has come down from 1:31.73 in August 2019 to 16.55, an 82% improvement. Dominik has entered 42 competitions, more competitions than 99% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3 blindfolded. 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.
