Template:Use dmy dates Script error: No such module "Infobox".Template:Template otherScript error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". The Russian Figure Skating Championships (Template:Langx) are an annual figure skating competition organized by the Figure Skating Federation of Russia (Template:Langx) to crown the national champions of Russia. The competitions' results were among the criteria used to determine the teams to the European Championships,[1] although Russian athletes have been banned from all international competitions since the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[2]
Skaters compete in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance at the senior, junior, and novice levels. The senior championships are typically held in late December, while the national junior championships are typically held in February. Evgeni Plushenko holds the record for winning the most Russian Championship titles in men's singles (with ten), while Maria Butyrskaya holds the record in women's singles (with six). Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze hold the record in pair skating (with four), while Ekaterina Bobrova and Dmitri Soloviev hold the record in ice dance (with seven).
History
Figure skating was first introduced in Russia by Peter the Great when he brought ice skates from Western Europe. The first ice rink in Russia was opened in 1865 in the Yusupov Gardens in Saint Petersburg, the city which Peter the Great had founded in the European style. Saint Petersburg hosted the first figure skating competition in Russia in 1878.[3] The first official Russian Championships were held in 1897; Aleksandr Panshin became the first official Russian national champion.[4] No men's competitions were held between 1914 and 1915 due to World War I and no competitions were held at all between 1916 and 1919 due to the Russian Revolution. The Revolution was followed by a period of Soviet-control in Russia, and in 1922, the establishment of the Soviet Union. Russian skaters competed at the Soviet Figure Skating Championships between 1920 and 1992. The last installment of the Soviet Championships were held in Kyiv, in what was then the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, in December 1991.[5]
After the collapse of the Soviet Union in December 1991, Russia emerged as an independent nation. The first championships of the newly-independent Russia took place in Chelyabinsk. Alexei Urmanov won the men's event, Maria Butyrskaya won the women's event, Evgenia Shishkova and Vadim Naumov won the pairs event, and Oksana Grishuk and Evgeni Platov won the ice dance event.[6] Selection criteria for competing in the Russian Championships are vague. Skaters compete in a series of events know as the Russian Grand Prix in order to advance to the Russian Championships.[1]
