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 288,433 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 7 competitions since June 2019, he has put 148 official solves on the record across two events.

Nantenaina has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
