Rodrigo Pinto

3×3 · top 4.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2018 · 2018PINT17

Rodrigo Pinto has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.62, set at Nacionales Guatemala 2023, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 19th in Guatemala. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since December 2018, he has put 368 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 94% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.17 in December 2018 to 8.62, a 55% improvement. Rodrigo has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
