Max Park dominates Agoura Summer 2026 with 3x3, big-cube wins
Max Park swept 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5 at Agoura Summer 2026, and his 5.58 average made a 120-solver local meet feel like a benchmark weekend.
Max Park’s 5.58 average on 3x3x3 Cube set the tone at Agoura Summer 2026, where he also won 4x4x4 Cube in 20.42 and 5x5x5 Cube in 36.14. What started as a routine Southern California open at Lindero Canyon Middle School in Agoura Hills became the kind of weekend every other solver in the room could measure against, with a star on top and a full local field underneath.
The June 20 meet drew 120 competitors into the school’s multi-purpose room, against a 135-person cap, with free spectator entry keeping it open to anyone who wanted to watch. The podium behind Park was not a procession so much as a test case for the rest of the field: Brendyn Dunagan finished second in 3x3x3 with a 7.12 average and Brody Lassner took third in 7.24, while Dunagan stayed in Park’s orbit across the big cubes and Lassner remained close enough in other events to keep the meet feeling competitive rather than ceremonial.
2x2x2 Cube showed that depth clearly. Dominic Shoji won in 1.78, Lassner finished second in 2.20, and Dunagan was third in 2.37, giving Agoura Summer a results sheet that went well beyond the headline name at the top. The registration list ultimately included 19 first-timers and 116 returners, a mix that gave the competition the feel of a working club scene rather than a one-off showcase.
Agoura Summer was organized by Abby Newlander, Curren Stewart, and West Coast Cubing LLC, with Newlander, Andy French, Franklin Pham, Matthew Dickman, and Shane Grogan listed as WCA delegates. Registration opened on April 2 at 5:00 PM PDT and closed on June 4 at 12:59 PM PDT, with a $35 base fee, no on-the-spot registration, and a 75 percent refund available for cancellations before June 12 at 5:00 PM PDT. Lindero Canyon Middle School had already hosted Agoura Winter 2026 on January 24, reinforcing the site as a recurring stop for California cubers.
By the end of the day, the room still looked like a neighborhood meet, with school walls, close judging, and a compact layout in Agoura Hills. But Park’s 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5 wins gave everyone else a clear number to chase, and that is what made Agoura Summer matter beyond the medals.
