Two years later he again represented Russia, travelling to Montreal to compete in the 2013 IPC Swimming World Championships. There he took three medals, all bronze, in the 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle and 200m freestyle. In 2012 he qualified for his first Summer Paralympics, where he entered four events in the London Games. He failed to reach the final in the 100m S4 freestyle, handicapped by the fact that his S3 classification was not given its own 100m competition. He qualified for the finals in the 50m breaststroke SB2, 150m individual medley SM3 and the 50m backstroke S3 but he was unable to medal.
