3×3 one-handed · top 1.6% of 73,695 all-time · competing since June 2018 · 2018LUHA02

Haiqi Lu (卢海琪) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 10.72, set at Beijing Only 3x3 2025, puts him in the top 1.6% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 137th in China. Until July 2011, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since June 2018, he has put 85 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. Haiqi has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
