Gavin Reita
Pyraminx · top 7.9% of 129,321 all-time · competing since September 2022 · 2022REIT01
Gavin Reita has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.05, set at FMC in a Gem City Temple 2023, puts him in the top 7.9% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,028th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since September 2022, he has put 156 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.12 in September 2022 to 12.18, a 24% improvement. Gavin has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
