Eric Kulchycki has been competing for 15 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.62, set at Winnipeg Open 2019, puts him in the top 6.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 207th in Canada. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since October 2011, he has put 261 official solves on the record across seven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.91 in October 2011 to 11.16, a 14% improvement. Eric has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
