3×3 · top 3.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2023 · 2023SANT79

Sebastian Francisco Santana has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.23, set at Santo Domingo Summer 2025, puts him in the top 3.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 14th in the Dominican Republic. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since August 2023, he has put 72 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 80% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.47 in August 2023 to 8.23, a 39% improvement. Sebastian has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
