Santiago Vasquez Silva

3×3 · top 2.8% of 288,433 all-time · competing since September 2023 · 2023SILV54

Santiago Vasquez Silva has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.02, set at Wembley Quimbaya IV 2026, puts him in the top 2.8% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 110th in Colombia. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 24 competitions since September 2023, he has put 500 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 51% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.02 in September 2023 to 8.02, a 64% improvement. Santiago has entered 24 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
