Adam Kolanus has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.64, set at ŚLS Gliwice 2015, puts him in the top 6.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 430th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since July 2014, he has put 228 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 98% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His Pyraminx best has come down from 5.55 in July 2014 to 3.64, a 34% improvement. Adam has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
