Daniel is a swimmer from Spain, a butterfly specialist and a collegiate competitor, whose official competitive record spans 15 seasons, 3 countries and 141 meets.
His recorded career begins in 2012, and one of his earliest marks still on file is the 50 breaststroke in 41.58, raced in Mieres. He started out alongside C.N. LUGONES.
His signature event is the 100 butterfly, the event he has raced the most, followed by the 200 butterfly and 50 butterfly. Butterfly is the backbone of the whole record: 85 meets and 156 recorded swims.
His fastest 100 butterfly stands at 59.26, set in long course (50 m) at Gijón.
His record includes collegiate championships, in 2021 (NSC Conference Championships). A representative mark at that level is 2:00.75 in the 200 freestyle, recorded in short course yards (25 yd).
The record runs unbroken from 2012 to 2026: 15 consecutive seasons without a single missing year. 2013 is the busiest season on record, with 54 verified individual swims.
He is a genuinely international swimmer: the official record spans 3 countries (Spain, the United States and UNK), including 23 of 141 meets outside Spain.
Those meets span 19 different venues (Gijón, Oviedo, Covina and Downey…). He has raced for 5 clubs, led by Edison High School (NJ), Warren High School (IL), C.N. SANTA OLAYA and Arcadia Riptides.
Still active: the directory includes official activity in the 2026 season. Latest competition: Greater Middlesex Swim Champs in Perth Amboy, on January 23, 2026. He holds 44 current event personal bests and 267 all-time PB improvements across 387 verified official swims in competitions governed by RFEN and NCAA.
