Calen Leung has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 3.44, set at Minnesota Meetup II Wednesday 2023, puts him in the top 7.3% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,139th in the United States. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since August 2022, he has put 297 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 21.82 in August 2022 to 13.65, a 37% improvement. Calen has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
