Haolan He (何浩澜) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 28.03, set at Jiajiang Open 2026, puts him in the top 1.8% of the 83,917 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 167th in China. Until April 2012, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2017, he has put 431 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 69% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.77 in April 2017 to 8.21, a 36% improvement. Haolan has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
