At the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta in the Soling boat class, Igor Skalin was crew member alongside Dmitri Schabanow on helmsman Georgi Schaiduko's Russian boat . After ten races in the Fleet Race , they qualified with 50 points as fifth for the final round, which was held in the Match Race . After victories over Canada in the quarter-finals and the United States in the semi-finals, the Russian crew faced the German boat led by Jochen Schümann in a duel for the Olympic victory, to which they clearly lost 3-0 in three races. Skalin therefore received the silver medal together with Schabanow and Schaiduko. In the same year they became world champions together in Punta Ala .
