A quiet look back at the 𝐏𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐜𝐮𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔. 🧩 It was lovely to witness the talent, focus, and dedication of everyone. Congratulations to all the participants and winners! 🏆

My sincere thanks to MnM Cube Shop, the POC - Philippine Olympic Committee - Olympic.PH, the Asian Mind Sports Association, Stellar Cube, sponsors, and all the hardworking organizers for putting together such a memorable and meaningful event. 🎉

Most of all, I’m just so grateful to see Vito out there — learning, being inspired and motivated by all the amazing speedcubers, making new friends, connecting with the community, and quietly enjoying his cubing journey. We’re so thankful to the cubing community for being so welcoming and supportive.

Moments like these are what truly matter. 🌟 I am so proud of you, anak! ❤️

From tears to a 9-second solve. 😭🧩
Literal na roller coaster of emotions during the Philippine National Speedcubing Open 2026 in Tagaytay.

Super naiyak si Vito bago sumalang. Overwhelmed siguro sa venue, sa dami ng tao, competition jitters, and the whole new environment. My mom heart was breaking. Akala ko talaga hindi na niya maitutuloy.

But God is good. Vito chose to be brave. And to our absolute surprise, he did his first solve in 9 seconds! 😭🧩 Milestone and core memory all in one. Thank you, Lord, for giving him the courage. Such a humbling moment. ✨

Thank you so much to everyone who cheered for him! To the organizers, and to Sir Paolo of MnM Cube Shop, thank you for being so understanding and supportive of Vito during his crying moment. We’re so sorry. And we genuinely appreciate you all. 🙏✨

P.S. I didn’t realize at first that Vito was actually sitting beside the Philippines’ top 1 speedcuber, Brenton Wong. We’re so sorry po medyo naging maingay si Vito that time. 🥺🙏 But for Vito to be applauded by one of the country’s best was unforgettable. Thank you po and congratulations for winning! Vito looks up to you so much. 🌟

Received another 2x2 scramble share from a fellow cuber! Thank you so much po! Sabi ni Vito, CLL solve daw yung nagawa niya rito. 🧩

Work-in-progress pa rin po siya at marami pang dapat matutunan, kaya please be kind po and correct us if mali ang understanding niya sa solve. 🤗

The megaminx unboxing is here at last. Took a while.🥹 But, am just happy to be able to add this to Vito’s cubing memories.

Sobrang saya niya talaga receiving this dahil favorite niya talaga ngayon ang Megaminx. And he genuinely deserves this. We’ll support you hangga’t kaya namin ng Tatay mo, anak. Keep that kind heart of yours. 🥹❤️

New puzzle unlocked for Vito ulit. This time, Clock naman! ✨🕰️🧩 Hindi pa siya mabilis and beginners method pa lang ang gamit niya to solve it, pero what’s important is he’s slowly learning at nag-eenjoy siya sa bawat solve. On to more practice muna! ⏱️✨ Happy cubing! 🤗
