Kanto Michel Ange Andriambolatiana has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.56, set at Cubing Mada Open 2025, puts him in the top 2.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 11th in Madagascar. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since May 2024, he has put 124 official solves on the record across three events.

Kanto has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
