Eithan Phren has been competing for a year. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.66, set at Israel Championship 2025, puts him in the top 3.5% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 27th in Israel. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since December 2024, he has put 163 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 73% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.85 in December 2024 to 9.75, a 48% improvement. Eithan has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
