Thea Stenelo

Pyraminx · top 6.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since May 2022 · 2022STEN02

Thea Stenelo has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.74, set at Gotland Open 2023, puts her in the top 6.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 160th in Sweden. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since May 2022, she has put 160 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 66% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Thea has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
