Pyraminx · top 7.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025POYR02
Sarp Poyraz has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.95, set at Back to School İstanbul 2025, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 65th in Turkey. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since April 2025, he has put 247 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 2×2 best has come down from 5.61 in April 2025 to 2.54, a 55% improvement. Sarp 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.
