Pyraminx · top 1.0% of 129,321 all-time · competing since September 2022 · 2022BRUM03
Gal Brumec has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.92, set at Slovenian Nationals 2023, puts him in the top 1.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3rd in Slovenia. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since September 2022, he has put 429 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.77 in September 2022 to 12.20, a 27% improvement. Gal has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
