Xago Torres has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.96, set at Hernando Summer 2020, puts him in the top 4.8% of the 74,164 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 25th in Argentina. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since July 2018, he has put 201 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 63% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.58 in July 2018 to 11.65, a 34% improvement. Xago has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
