Hase/Volodin - it's a contraction of their first names - Minerva & Nikita.

I could plop this question in one of several threads, but I’ll just post it here. I have been trying to remember for years who skated to that song fire on fire by Sam Smith because this Russian team really captured my attention four years ago, trying to do some research. Are they still together? Whatever happened to them, they were one of my favorite Russian teams.

They broke up ages ago. He went to skate in shows and was really outspoken against the invasion of Ukraine, I hope he's not in Russia anymore but I don't follow him. She's had another partner or two but I haven't heard anything about her within the past year or so.

Thank you for that, I remember watching them on the Grand Prix and I rewatched that Sam Smith program over and over.

Bumping up this thread because it was hard to find. Carry on with the upcoming season's pairs talk.
