Mikel Remuzgo Salas has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.39, set at Ottawa Spring 2024, puts him in the top 5.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 181st in Canada. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 29 competitions since December 2022, he has put 593 official solves on the record across six events.

His Pyraminx best has come down from 14.47 in December 2022 to 3.39, a 77% improvement. Mikel has entered 29 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
