Gabriel Olguín has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.50, set at World Rubik's Cube Championship 2017, puts him in the top 3.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 226th in France. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since March 2014, he has put 228 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.66 in March 2014 to 8.50, a 33% improvement. Gabriel has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
