Roberto Calderon
Pyraminx · top 5.6% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2022 · 2022CALD02
Roberto Calderon has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.54, set at FSUbers 3.0 2022, puts him in the top 5.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,455th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since April 2022, he has put 113 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 28.68 in April 2022 to 15.90, a 45% improvement. Roberto 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.
