Personal life

Career

Having begun skating in 2005,[2] Aliev trained in Ukhta until 2013 when he moved to Saint Petersburg, becoming a student of Evgeni Rukavicin.[3]

2014–15 season

Aliev debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series in the 2014–15 season. Awarded bronze medals in Ljubljana, Slovenia and Aichi, Japan, he finished as the third alternate for a place at the JGP Final. Making his senior international debut, he placed 10th at the 2014 Golden Spin of Zagreb, an ISU Challenger Series event. Returning to the junior ranks, he won bronze medals at the 2015 Russian Junior Championships and 2015 European Youth Olympic Winter Festival.

2015–16 season

In 2015–16, Aliev's first assignment was a Junior Grand Prix event in Riga, Latvia. Placing 6th in the short program and first in the free skate, he won the gold medal by a margin of 5.32 points ahead of Latvia's Deniss Vasiļjevs. He then took gold in Linz, Austria, with a total score 14 points higher than silver medalist Vincent Zhou, and qualified for the JGP Final.

Competing on the senior level, Aliev was awarded bronze at the 2015 International Cup of Nice and silver at the 2015 CS Tallinn Trophy. In December, he won the silver medal at the 2015–16 JGP Final in Barcelona, having finished second to Nathan Chen of the United States. Later that month, he placed 6th at the 2016 Russian Championships in Yekaterinburg, before winning his first junior national title in January in Chelyabinsk.

Aliev won the bronze medal in the men's singles discipline and the gold medal in the team event at the 2016 Youth Olympics in Hamar, Norway. Нe was awarded a small gold medal for his short program result at the 2016 World Junior Championships in Debrecen, Hungary. Ranked 7th in the free skate, he finished 6th overall.

2016–17 season

Aliev started his competition for the Junior Grand Prix series at the 2016 JGP Czech Republic where he placed first in both the short and free skate to win the gold medal with a total of 232.83 points. He finished 4th in his next event at the 2016 JGP Slovenia, after placing first in the short but later dropping to seventh in the free skate. His results were enough to qualify him for the last spot at the 2016–17 JGP Final to be held in Marseilles, France.

Skating technique

For jump abbreviations, see figure skating jumps.

Aliev practiced different quadruple jumps, such as 4T, 4S, 4Lo, and attempted 4Lz,[4][5] but in competitions since 2014 consistently landed only 4T, both as a solo jump and in combinations, 4T-2T and 4T-3T.

He has also demonstrated difficult sequences, such as 3A-3A and 4T-3T-3T-1Lo-3S-2A, in practice.[6][7]
