Anna Riabova (Анна Рябова) has been competing for 7 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.09, set at Kyiv Blind Side Autumn 2025, puts her in the top 8.1% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 146th in Ukraine. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 20 competitions since November 2019, she has put 270 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her Pyraminx best has come down from 29.10 in November 2019 to 4.09, an 86% improvement. Anna has entered 20 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
