Han-Lin Wu (吳翰霖) has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 3.41, set at China Championship 2019, puts him in the top 7.2% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 82nd in Chinese Taipei. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 20 competitions since August 2015, he has put 477 official solves on the record across eleven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 16.52 in August 2015 to 11.43, a 31% improvement. He has entered 20 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
