Marius Lesteberg With has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.21, set at Lierskogen Vinterkubing 2026, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 96th in Norway. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2025, he has put 467 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 69% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His Pyraminx best has come down from 14.40 in April 2025 to 3.96, a 72% improvement. Marius has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, Pyraminx. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
