Elian Stiven Posso Saldarriaga has been competing for 7 years. Their best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.96, set at Paulo VI Cartago 2025, puts them in the top 1.1% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 20th in Colombia. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 24 competitions since September 2019, they have put 731 official solves on the record across ten events.

Their 3×3 best has come down from 22.25 in September 2019 to 11.76, a 47% improvement. Elian has entered 24 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
