Luis Hadriel López Jocón
Square-1 · top 7.0% of 25,662 all-time · competing since April 2025 · 2025JOCO01
Luis Hadriel López Jocón has been competing for a year. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 10.50, set at Primma Cube Open 2026, puts him in the top 7.0% of the 25,662 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2nd in Guatemala. Until August 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since April 2025, he has put 177 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 63% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 25.31 in April 2025 to 11.82, a 53% improvement. Luis has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
