Valentina Alicia Vargas Chambilla
Skewb · top 3.6% of 73,281 all-time · competing since November 2016 · 2016CHAM09
Valentina Alicia Vargas Chambilla has been competing for 10 years. Her best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.69, set at Sky Cube La Paz 2018, puts her in the top 3.6% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8th in Bolivia. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 13 competitions since November 2016, she has put 305 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside her 7 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 31.19 in November 2016 to 15.70, a 50% improvement. Valentina has entered 13 competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
