3×3 · top 89.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2022 · 2022LYKK02

Rita Merlung Lykkebo has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 55.47, set at Danish Championship 2024, puts her in the top 89.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,079th in Denmark. Across 6 competitions since December 2022, she has put 72 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 2 DNFs. Her 2×2 best has come down from 17.77 in December 2022 to 15.83, an 11% improvement. Rita 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.
