Federico Soldati

2×2 · top 18.9% of 186,767 all-time · competing since November 2008 · 2008SOLD01

Federico Soldati has been competing for 18 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 3.39, set at Palaghiaccio Open 2015, puts him in the top 18.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 216th in Switzerland. Across 8 competitions since November 2008, he has put 118 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 30.11 in November 2008 to 18.50, a 39% improvement. Federico has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
