Ashton Roske has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.72, set at Reno Summer 2023, puts him in the top 6.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,633rd in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since February 2020, he has put 83 official solves on the record across four events.

Ashton has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
