Skewb · top 33.5% of 73,281 all-time · competing since May 2023 · 2023LIUJ06
Jerry Liu has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 6.98, set at Coffee Cup Tacoma 2025, puts him in the top 33.5% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,622nd in the United States. Across 5 competitions since May 2023, he has put 81 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 13.86 in May 2023 to 5.70, a 59% improvement. Jerry has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
