Career

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

Pleshkov began learning how to skate in 2004 at the age of four.[1] He competed as a single skater through the end of 2011–12 figure skating season, after which he teamed up with his first partner, Albina Sokur. Sokur/Pleshkov competed together domestically through the 2016–17 season but split at the end of the season. Pleshkov then teamed up with Anna Kaportseva for a season before joining forces with his current partner, Alina Pepeleva.[2]

2018–19 season

[edit]

Pepeleva/Pleshkov competed at their first international assignment, 2019 JGP Austria, in August 2018. The team placed fourth in the short program and third in the free skate to win the bronze medal overall behind Russian teammates Polina Kostiukovich / Dmitrii Ialin and Anastasia Poluianova / Dmitry Sopot. Despite their podium finish, Pepeleva/Pleshkov did not receive a second JGP assignment but instead went on to win gold in the junior division of the 2018 Minsk-Arena Ice Star, and silver at the 2018 Russian-Chinese Winter Games.

At the 2019 Russian Junior Championships, Pepeleva/Pleshkov finished just off the podium in fourth place.

2019–20 season

[edit]

Pepeleva/Pleshkov opened their season back on the Junior Grand Prix circuit in August 2019 at the 2019 JGP United States. Despite technical errors in both the short program and the free skate, the team managed to earn the bronze medal behind fellow Russian teams Apollinariia Panfilova / Dmitry Rylov and Kseniia Akhanteva / Valerii Kolesov.

At their second assignment, 2019 JGP Poland, Pepeleva/Pleshkov were again plagued by several technical difficulties and fluke mistakes which caused them to finish off the podium in fourth place. Despite missing the podium, the team qualified for the final spot to the 2019–20 Junior Grand Prix Final based on points earned between their two assignments.

Pepeleva/Pleshkov made their senior debut in November 2019 at the 2019 CS Warsaw Cup. The team put together their cleanest programs of the season to date at the event and captured the silver medal for their efforts behind American team Jessica Calalang / Brian Johnson and ahead of Canadian team Justine Brasseur / Mark Bardei. They also set new personal bests in all three segments at this event.

At the 2020 Russian Championships, Pepeleva/Pleshkov gave two of their strongest performances of the season, placing sixth in the short program and fifth in the free skate to finish fifth overall, just ahead of junior-level rivals Panfilova/Rylov. Due to their placement in the event, Pepeleva/Pleshkov were named second alternates to the Russian team for the 2020 European Championships.[3][4]

2020–21 season

[edit]

Pepeleva/Pleshkov opened their first fully senior season at the third event of the domestic Russian Cup series in Sochi, the qualifying competition series to the 2021 Russian Figure Skating Championships. They placed third in both the short program and the free skate to finish third overall behind teammates Daria Pavliuchenko / Denis Khodykin and Iuliia Artemeva / Mikhail Nazarychev. At their next event, the fourth stage of the Russian Cup held in Kazan, they placed sixth in both the short and free programs to finish sixth overall.[5]

The team was scheduled to compete at the 2020 Rostelecom Cup in November but were forced to withdraw from the competition after one of their coaches contracted COVID-19.[6] They subsequently competed at the 2021 Russian Championships, placing ninth.

On 26 February 2021, it was announced by Russian media outlet R-Sport that Pepeleva/Pleshkov were one of the new teams famed pairs coach Nina Mozer was taking on in her return to active coaching after a three-year hiatus.[7]

2021–22 season

[edit]

Pepeleva/Pleshkov made their senior Grand Prix debut at the 2021 Skate America, where they placed sixth in both segments of competition to finish sixth overall.[8]
