Jack Lessard
Pyraminx · top 8.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since December 2019 · 2019LESS02
Jack Lessard has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.15, set at Berkeley Winter A 2023, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,156th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since December 2019, he has put 283 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 54% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His Pyraminx best has come down from 8.86 in June 2022 to 4.15, a 53% improvement. Jack has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
