Víctor Daniel Porma Zarate has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.70, set at Melipilla Open 2018, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 138th in Chile. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since October 2016, he has put 175 official solves on the record across seven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 21.23 in October 2016 to 9.70, a 54% improvement. He has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
