Ryan Jew has been competing for 18 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.84, set at South Enough 2018, puts him in the top 0.89% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 252nd in the United States. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 224 competitions since November 2008, he has put 7,675 official solves on the record across 15 events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 58% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 27.72 in November 2008 to 6.96, a 75% improvement. Ryan has entered 224 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
