Gael Cabezas

2×2 · top 8.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2025 · 2025CASA08

Gael Cabezas has been competing for 11 months. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.45, set at Trebolis El Porvenir Bogotá II 2026, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 268th in Colombia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 18 competitions since October 2025, he has put 121 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 96% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 8 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 3:01.41 in October 2025 to 41.53, a 77% improvement. Gael has entered 18 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
