Lethabo Moeti has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.90, set at CubingZA Nationals 2025, puts him in the top 0.98% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in South Africa. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since February 2023, he has put 713 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 14.48 in February 2023 to 7.64, a 47% improvement. Lethabo has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
