Maxim Naumov Honors Late Parents At Figure Skating Championships 1 Year After Fatal Plane Crash

It’s been a year since Maxim Naumov’s parents, world champion skaters Evgenia Shishkova and Vadim Naumov, died along with 26 other members of the figure skating community in the Washington, D.C. plane crash in January 2025. Nearly one year later, Maxim returned to the U.S. Figure Skating Championships – the final place his parents watched him compete – for an emotional performance dedicated to their memory.
