The list of ambassadors for the country's main water exhibition has been expanded to include Olga Markina, Russia's deepest female breath-hold diver, whose achievements in freediving command great respect.
Olga is a shining star of underwater sports: she holds the current Guinness World Record for deepest dive under ice (71 meters in 2025), the absolute Russian record holder for deepest dive with a monofin (103 meters; until now, no Russian woman had been able to break the legendary Natalia Molchanova's record of 101 meters for over 15 years), is an international master of sports, and a multiple Russian freediving champion.
Olga's expertise extends beyond the sport of freediving. As an instructor for three international training systems (Molchanovs, AIDA, and CMAS), she founded the world's first online freediving school, ORCA, in 2019 and has trained over 1,000 people to date. Olga also serves as the head of the Sports Committee of the Russian Freediving Federation.
Olga Markina has repeatedly appeared on stage at the Moscow Dive Show as a speaker, and in 2021, she received the well-deserved Heroes of the Depth award for her ice record.
The Moscow Dive Show team is excited to develop relationships with representatives of the freediving industry and hopes that Olga's unique experience and energy will inspire visitors and exhibitors to new underwater discoveries.
The Moscow Dive Show will be held from February 19 to 21, 2026, at Gostiny Dvor in Moscow. You can buy tickets to the exhibition from November 15, 2025, on a special page of the website https://www.diveshow.ru/show/bilety/
