Nathan Rahn has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.12, set at Wisconsin Cubing Marathon 2023, puts him in the top 0.094% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 35th in the United States. Until June 2018, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 97 competitions since July 2021, he has put 5,676 official solves on the record across 14 events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.63 in July 2021 to 5.71, a 55% improvement. Nathan has entered 97 competitions, more competitions than 99% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. 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.
