Kyohei Osawa (大澤響平)

Pyraminx · top 7.1% of 129,321 all-time · competing since July 2017 · 2017OSAW01

Kyohei Osawa (大澤響平) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.89, set at Japan Open 2017, puts him in the top 7.1% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 89th in Japan. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since July 2017, he has put 60 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.73 in July 2017 to 11.40, a 23% improvement. Kyohei has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
