Skewb · top 2.0% of 74,164 all-time · competing since March 2023 · 2023LAML02

Lee Cheuk Lam (李卓林) has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.23, set at Hong Kong Autumn Cube Day 2026, puts him in the top 2.0% of the 74,164 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 13th in Hong Kong, China. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since March 2023, he has put 55 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 21% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.34 in March 2023 to 9.40, a 30% improvement. Lee 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.
