Skewb · top 2.4% of 73,281 all-time · competing since June 2021 · 2021FRYC01

Charlie Fry has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.37, set at Adelaide Summer 2025, puts him in the top 2.4% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 85th in Australia. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 28 competitions since June 2021, he has put 893 official solves on the record across twelve events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 51.25 in June 2021 to 8.40, an 84% improvement. Charlie has entered 28 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
