Mattias Ribbing from Sweden went to Cambridge Memory Championship 2009 to see if he could use what he learned from the pmemory course in the memory championships.
He recently finished the pmemory course and had no previous memory training. The total result gave him the 121st place in the world ranking and the price for "Best Beginner."
Ranked #6 in the Cambridge Memory Championship 2009, not that many contestants but his total score is failry good.
After the championship he currently ranks:
Ranks #30 in the world with "15 Minute Numbers" (220 digits)
Ranks #55 in the world with "5 Minute Binary" (210 digits)
Ranks #42 in the world with "5 Minute Words" (36 words)
