Pierre Ming L. Debroe has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.05, set at Rubik's UK Championship 2023, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 9th in Belgium. Until December 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since June 2022, he has put 89 official solves on the record across five events.

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.
