Pyraminx · top 2.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2023 · 2023JOAO01

Felipe Teodoro São João has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.57, set at SAJ Águas da Prata 2025, puts him in the top 2.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 52nd in Brazil. Until January 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since April 2023, he has put 205 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.04 in April 2023 to 8.24, a 45% improvement. Felipe has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
