Shawn Gutierrez

Pyraminx · top 3.3% of 129,321 all-time · competing since March 2019 · 2019GUTI05

Shawn Gutierrez has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.91, set at Bobcat Battle 2019, puts him in the top 3.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 876th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since March 2019, he has put 71 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.53 in March 2019 to 11.17, a 48% improvement. Shawn has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
