Career

Early in his career, Razgulajevs competed with Aliki Stergiadu for the Soviet Union. They won the 1991 World Junior title.[1] Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he and Stergiadu competed for Latvia and Uzbekistan. They won the bronze medal at the 1993 NHK Trophy[2] and placed 13th at the 1994 Winter Olympics[3]

When that partnership ended, Razgulajevs teamed up with Nakako Tsuzuki, with whom he is a two-time Japanese national champion. They placed 16th at the 1996 World Championships.[4] They parted ways at the end of the season.

His next partner was Jenny Dahlen, with whom he competed for Latvia. They placed 24th at the 1997 World Championships[4] and 22nd at the 1997 European Championships.[5]

Razgulajevs retired from competitive skating in 1997. He is currently an Assistant Director, coach and choreographer at the Scarboro Figure Skating Club in Ontario, Canada.

His son, Dmitre Razgulajevs (born November 19, 1996), is a competitive ice dancer for Canada.[6]
