Maxim Naumov Carries Parents' Legacy to Olympics a Year After Tragic Plane Crash
Maxim Naumov dedicates his Olympic qualification and a $1 million benefit to honor his parents and others lost in the 2025 plane crash involving the skating community.
- This year, Maxim Naumov finished third at the U.S. championships, earning a spot for the Milan Cortina Olympics and will compete next week in Italy with Spencer Howe and Emily Chan.
- The crash into the Potomac soon claimed 67 lives, including skaters and coaches from the Skating Club of Boston and Washington Figure Skating Club.
- The memorial event featured emotional performances by young skaters and helped raise well over $1 million for families of victims, firefighters and emergency personnel.
- Naumov keeps tangible reminders close, including a white gold ring with a single diamond from his father and a simple gold chain with a cross, and maintains weekly rituals of remembrance this year.
- Victims included 11 skaters and four coaches from a Wichita development camp in Wichita, Kansas, ages 11 to 16, and three weeks later at the World Championships in Boston, tributes moved the crowd to tears.
