Career

Early years

Ialin began learning to skate in 2002.[1] He trained as a single skater until 2013 in Yekaterinburg. He later switched to pair skating and moved to Saint Petersburg.[2]

Ialin and Polina Kostiukovich began competing together in 2016.[2] They are coached by Vasili Velikov in Saint Petersburg.[1]

2017–2018 season: Silver at Junior Worlds

Kostiukovich/Ialin made their international debut in late September 2017 at the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) competition in Zagreb, Croatia, where they won the gold medal. They beat the silver medalist, Gao Yumeng / Xie Zhong, by less than one point and the bronze medalist, their teammates Aleksandra Boikova / Dmitrii Kozlovskii, by about two points.[3] At this competition Kostiukovich/Ialin performed at level 3 quad twist which is rarely seen even at senior competitions. They received 10.46 points for that twist.[4]

In January 2018 Kostiukovich/Ialin won the bronze medal at the 2018 Russian Junior Championships after placing 11th in the short program and 2nd in the free skate.

In March 2018 Kostiukovich/Ialin competed at the 2018 Junior Worlds where they won the silver medal after placing 2nd in the short program and 3rd in the free skate. They were part of a Russian sweep of the pairs' podium, along with their training partners Anastasia Mishina / Aleksandr Galiamov (bronze) and Daria Pavliuchenko / Denis Khodykin (gold).

2018–2019 season

Kostiukovich/Ialin started their season by competing in the 2018 JGP series. At their first JGP event of the season they won the gold medal in Linz, Austria. They were ranked first in both the short program and the free skate and won the gold medal by a margin of more than 14 points over the silver medalist, their teammates Anastasia Poluianova / Dmitry Sopot.[5]

At their 2nd JGP event of the season they won the silver medal in Ostrava, Czech Republic. They were ranked 1st in the short program and 2nd in the free skate, and were beaten by the gold medalists, their teammates and training partners Kseniia Akhanteva / Valerii Kolesov by a margin of about 4 points.[6] With these results they have qualified to the 2018–19 Junior Grand Prix Final.
