Pien Garstman

2×2 · top 27.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2024 · 2024GARS01

Pien Garstman has been competing for 2 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.05, set at Alphen Cubing 2025, puts her in the top 27.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 626th in the Netherlands. Across 9 competitions since March 2024, she has put 105 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 3 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 1:04.16 in March 2024 to 44.14, a 31% improvement. Pien has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
