Ravi Pikul
Pyraminx · top 9.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since March 2025 · 2025PIKU01
Ravi Pikul has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.35, set at Linz Nikolaus Day 2025, puts him in the top 9.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 35th in Austria. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since March 2025, he has put 131 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 25.73 in March 2025 to 12.77, a 50% improvement. Ravi has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
