Gaia Picciurro has been competing for 5 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.78, set at Sarzana Seaside Cubing 2022, puts her in the top 9.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 363rd in Italy. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since December 2021, she has put 59 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 13.94 in January 2022 to 10.78, a 23% improvement. Gaia has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
