Ivan Andreyevich Bukin (Russian: Иван Андреевич Букин; born 16 September 1993) is a Russian ice dancer. With partner Alexandra Stepanova, he is the 2013 World Junior champion, 2012 World Junior silver medalist, 2012 JGP Final champion, and 2014 Russian national junior champion.

Career

Early years

Bukin started out in single skating but was asked to switch to ice dancing.[5] He initially disliked skating but over time grew to love dance.[6] He skated briefly with Elena Ilinykh.[7] Bukin was partnered with Stepanova in 2006 by coaches Irina Zhuk and Alexander Svinin and trains in Moscow.[5]

2010–2013: Junior debut

Stepanova/Bukin debuted on the Junior Grand Prix series in the 2010–11 season. They won both of their events and qualified for the 2010 JGP Final, where they won the bronze medal.

Stepanova/Bukin won both of their 2011–12 JGP events, Romania and Italy. Their placements qualified them for the JGP Final where they placed fourth in the short and second in the free dance to receive the bronze medal. They won silver at the 2012 Russian Junior Championships. Stepanova/Bukin then competed at the 2012 World Junior Championships and won the silver medal.

In 2012–13, Stepanova/Bukin won gold medals at their JGP events in Turkey and Germany, qualifying them for the JGP Final in Sochi, Russia.[8] They won the gold medal in their third appearance at the final. Stepanova/Bukin withdrew from the 2013 Russian Junior Championships due to Bukin's cold and sinusitis.[9] They were assigned to the 2013 World Junior Championships where they won the gold medal, more than seven points ahead of French ice dancers Gabriella Papadakis / Guillaume Cizeron. After the event, the duo and their coaches discussed whether to move up to the senior level.[10]

2013–present: Senior debut

Stepanova/Bukin decided to make their senior debut in the 2013–14 season. They were assigned to one 2013–14 Grand Prix event, the 2013 Skate Canada, and finished eighth. They came in fifth at the 2013 Winter Universiade. At the Russian Championships, Stepanova/Bukin finished sixth on the senior level and won gold on the junior level ahead of Yanovskaya/Mozgov.

Personal life

Ivan Bukin is the son of 1988 Olympic ice dancing champion Andrei Bukin.[5] His mother, Elena Vasiuk, is also a former ice dancer.[11] He began studying at Moscow's Institute of Physical Culture in 2010.[5]
