Pyraminx · top 3.7% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2017 · 2017KAYU01

Artur Kayumov has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.01, set at Kaspiy Open 2018, puts him in the top 3.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 78th in Russia. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since April 2017, he has put 316 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.89 in April 2017 to 11.49, an 11% improvement. Artur has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
