Skewb · top 4.8% of 73,281 all-time · competing since May 2015 · 2015RAJA04

Jayanth Rajakumar has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.97, set at Aboard the Pyraminx Train 2018, puts him in the top 4.8% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 112th in India. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since May 2015, he has put 290 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 74% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.47 in May 2015 to 14.77, a 28% improvement. Jayanth has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
