Hidde Hoogendorp

Pyraminx · top 8.6% of 129,321 all-time · competing since September 2022 · 2022HOOG05

Hidde Hoogendorp has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.18, set at Dutch Autumn 2023, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 143rd in the Netherlands. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since September 2022, he has put 145 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.35 in September 2022 to 11.06, a 36% improvement. Hidde 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.
