Jackson Bennett has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.52, set at Wells Dual 2026, puts him in the top 5.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,437th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since August 2025, he has put 200 official solves on the record across eight events.

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.
