Yuxi Chen (陈宇熙) has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.21, set at Guangzhou Special 2024, puts him in the top 1.9% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 94th in China. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since December 2023, he has put 48 official solves on the record across two events.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
