Alexandr Zaboev (Russian: Александр Забоев, born 1 September 1989) is a Russian pair skater. From 2012 to 2014, he skated with Natalja Zabijako for Estonia, placing tenth at the 2014 European Championships. Although they qualified a spot for Estonia in the pairs' event at the 2014 Winter Olympics, they did not compete in Sochi because Zaboev's fast-track citizenship application was declined.

Skating career

Zaboev began skating in 1994 and competed in singles until the end of 2008, before joining an ice ballet for two years.[1]:{{{3}}}[2]:{{{3}}}

In 2010, Zaboev began competing in pair skating with Alexandra Herbríková for the Czech Republic. They were coached by Stanislav Žídek and Otto Dlabola in Ostrava.[3]:{{{3}}}

Zaboev teamed up with Natalja Zabijako to compete for Estonia. They began training together on 19 September 2012.[4]:{{{3}}} By finishing ninth at the 2013 Nebelhorn Trophy, they earned a spot for Estonia in pair skating at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Zaboev applied for Estonian citizenship, required to represent the country at the Olympics,[5]:{{{3}}} but in November 2013, Estonia denied his fast-track application.[6]:{{{3}}}

Zabijako/Zaboev placed tenth at the 2014 European Championships and 19th at the 2014 World Championships. On April 6, 2014, Sport Express reported that their partnership had ended.[7]:{{{3}}}

On July 6, 2015, it was announced that Zaboev had teamed up with Japanese pair skater, Narumi Takahashi, and would skate for Japan with her.[8]

Personal life

Zaboev also competed in ballroom dancing until 2004.[1]:{{{3}}}
