Konstantin Bezmaternikh
figure skater

Konstantin Alexeyevich Bezmaternikh (Russian: Константин Алексеевич Безматерных, born 22 March 1988) is a Russian pair skater. With former partner Ksenia Krasilnikova, he is the 2008 World Junior champion.
Career
Bezmaternikh teamed up with Ksenia Krasilnikova in 2003. The pair was coached by Valeri Tiukov and Valentina Tiukova in poor conditions in Perm. Although they placed second on the day, they were later awarded the 2007-08 Junior Grand Prix Final title following the retroactive disqualification of Vera Bazarova / Yuri Larionov due to a positive doping sample from Larionov.
Krasilnikova/Bezmaternikh withdrew from the 2009 Nebelhorn Trophy after the short program – he injured ligaments in his right hand. Krasilnikova decided to retire from competitive skating after the 2009–10 season due to a persistent back injury.
Bezmaternikh moved to Saint Petersburg and began training in Tamara Moskvina and Artur Dmitriev's group. In 2010, he teamed up with Sabina Imaikina and finished 10th at the 2011 Russian Nationals. In February 2011, they announced their split.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Konstantin Bezmaternikh” as figure skater. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as figure skater. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q723724. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1988, 2008, 2003 and 2007.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
