Lanqing Feng (冯兰青)
Skewb · top 3.3% of 73,281 all-time · competing since May 2017 · 2017FENG05
Lanqing Feng (冯兰青) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.62, set at Fushun Open 2024, puts him in the top 3.3% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 178th in China. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since May 2017, he has put 233 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 61% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His Skewb best has come down from 9.84 in May 2017 to 2.62, a 73% improvement. Lanqing has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
