Piotr Tyrakowski
Skewb · top 3.2% of 73,281 all-time · competing since February 2016 · 2016TYRA01
Piotr Tyrakowski has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.59, set at CFL Sieradz 2018, puts him in the top 3.2% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 173rd in Poland. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since February 2016, he has put 116 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.46 in February 2016 to 10.18, an 18% improvement. Piotr has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
