3×3 · top 3.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2019 · 2019RALA02

Nantenaina Ralambomahay has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.42, set at Cubing Mada 2026, puts him in the top 3.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 17th in Madagascar. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since June 2019, he has put 123 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 52% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Nantenaina 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.
