Leonardo Manriquez Rifo has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Megaminx: a personal-best single of 52.99, set at Concepción al Cubo 2023, puts him in the top 6.5% of the 34,786 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 19th in Chile. Until April 2010, no official Megaminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since January 2017, he has put 234 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.48 in January 2017 to 10.02, a 31% improvement. Leonardo has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
