Devid Naryzhnyy

Devid Yurievich Naryzhnyy (, born 11 October 1999) is a Russian competitive ice dancer. With his former skating partner, Elizaveta Shanaeva, he is the 2020 World Junior bronze medalist and the 2019–20 Junior Grand Prix Final bronze medalist. He also won three medals on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series, including gold medals at 2019 France and 2019 Russia.

With his skating partner Irina Khavronina he is a two-time Russian Nationals bronze medalist.

Personal life Devid Yurievich Naryzhnyy was born on 11 October 1999 in Kharkiv, Ukraine. In February 2022 after successful try-outs he teamed up with Annabelle Morozov. Their first competition was "Golden Skate of Moscow" of the Grand Prix of Russia, where they won gold. They went on to win another gold medal at their next Russian Grand Prix event, "Idel-2022". After a promising start they were considered among the top contenders for the 2023 Russian Nationals podium. However, prior to the event the couple's break-up was suddenly announced in the media and confirmed by the Figure Skating Federation of Russia. Morozov and Naryzhnyy later revealed that they weren't able to agree on their preferred training locations and future plans. Morozov then departed for the US, teaming up with Igor Eremenko later, and Naryzhnyy teamed up with Irina Khavronina after the 2023 Russian Championships.

2023–24 season On January 17, 2023, Khavronina/Naryzhnyy took to the ice for their first training session led by their new coaches Denis Samokhin and Maria Borovikova. Samokhin commented: "They look good [together], they are two very capable, technically sound athletes, they are well suited to each other.

Khavronina/Naryzhnyy's first performance as a new couple took place on May 4 in Ilia Averbukh's show in Moscow. They skated to "Oh, the Roads…" and performed in several group numbers. They also performed on May 7 in the same show in Saint-Petersburg. Naryzhnyy later described his emotions during their first performance as "being calm" and Khavronina stated she had been looking forward to it: "I really wanted to capture it in my memory, every second, because I felt that moment deeply. When we left the ice after our performance, we hugged. It was touching, atmospheric. To me, it was unforgettable."

The couple presented their competitive programs at the Russian Test Skates in September 2023. They skated to Michael Jackson's songs in the rhythm dance and to a medley of Power-Haus tracks in their free dance. On finishing their free program, Khavronina became emotional and later said the preparation for the test skates was difficult for her: “I was very nervous during the test skates. I really wanted us to show our best both to the judges and the audience. I was worried about how they would accept us, there was pressure”.

When commenting on their choice of music, Naryzhnyy said he had long wanted to skate to Michael Jackson's songs and suggested this option to their team.

They improved their free dance and total scores at their next competition, “Quray” of the Russian Grand Prix series. They won silver behind Elizaveta Khudaiberdieva/Egor Bazin who placed first. At the ‘Volga Pirouette’ Grand Prix tournament Khavronina/Naryzhnyy won another silver medal scoring their season's best in the free dance.

At the 2024 Russian Figure Skating Championships Khavronina/Naryzhnyy placed 5th in the rhythm dance due to a mistake on synchronized twizzles. They, however, scored their season's best in the free dance placing second in the segment and winning the bronze medal at their first Russian Nationals.

After the championship Khavronina stated that this time she prepared for the tournament calmly and wasn't nervous at all. Naryzhnyy, on the other hand, said preparing for the Nationals was hard as he was anxious to show everything they could do in training.

In March, they participated in the Channel One Trophy. They were on the White Team led by Olympic champion Alina Zagitova who acted as the team's captain.

2024–2025 season Khavronina/Naryzhnyy presented their new programs, albeit fragments, in August 2024 at an open training session led by their coaching team. They chose funk as the main rhythm for their rhythm dance to 'Get Up, I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine' by James Brown and 'Do You Love Me' by The Contours. The couple commented their program wasn't based on 'Dirty Dancing' or any other movie. “We just liked the music. First, we found the first piece, we really liked its rhythm, its mood. So, we’re just two people dancing at a disco”, said Khavronina.

The couple's coaches suggested ‘Following A Bird’ by Ezio Bosso and ‘Run’ by Ludovico Einaudi for their free dance. Coach Denis Samokhin's mother, Natalia Dubinskaya, had died earlier that year after struggling with motor neurone disease, a condition that Italian composer Ezio Bosso was diagnosed with in his early 40s. Khavronina and Naryzhnyy described their free dance as ‘life as it goes, a person’s struggle’.

At their next tournament, 'The Golden Skate' of the Russian Grand Prix in Moscow, Khavronina/Naryzhnyy won silver while Stepanova/Bukin again placed first. This time Stepanova/Bukin's total score was 7,8 points higher, but Khavronina/Naryzhnyy received better levels resulting in a higher base value score in both rhythm and free dance. They were also the only ice dance couple to be awarded a level 4 for their Pattern Dance Type Step Sequence in the rhythm dance.

After the tournament coach Denis Samokhin stated that Naryzhnyy had been skating with a knee injury and had had to undergo some treatment before the event. The team were looking forward to the Russian Nationals and planned to work on performance skills and speed in their programs.

At the 2025 Russian Figure Skating Championships Khavronina/Naryzhnyy improved their season's best in both segments, placing 2nd in the rhythm dance, 3rd in the free dance and winning the bronze medal. Their total score was only 0.45 points lower than that of Khudaiberdieva/Bazin who won silver. Khavronina/Naryzhnyy yet again received the highest base value score in both programs (with Stepanova/Bukin receiving an equal score in the free dance).

The couple had to withdraw from the gala, however, as Naryzhnyy had aggravated his injury. Soon after the Nationals coach Denis Samokhin announced that Naryzhnyy needed further treatment and the couple might finish their season early.

In January 2025 Naryzhnyy underwent knee surgery. “He had a damaged meniscus and a certain part of the cartilage”, Denis Samokhin explained. “It's not a big problem, but the damaged edge of the meniscus could affect the cartilage further - and that would be serious. During the surgery, they removed the damaged piece of the meniscus and cleaned the cartilage”. According to Samokhin, Naryzhnyy is recovering well and is expected to resume on-ice training in April 2025.

In June 2025 Khavronina/Naryzhnyy started training under Alexander Zhulin.

In December 2025, Naryzhnyy underwent a second knee surgery. “The first procedure was a mosaic chondroplasty of the lateral femoral condyle. This time, it was just a chondroplasty of the patellar cartilage. They also cleaned up all the scar tissue from the previous operation performed on January 16”, Naryzhnyy stated.

In April 2026, he began light on-ice training after his second surgery.
