Career
Lyovkin made his international debut in September 2006 in the FIS Cup . After he achieved only mediocre results in this series, he made his debut in the Ski Jumping Continental Cup a year later in Villach . On February 17, 2008 he just missed the podium at the FIS Cup in Szczyrk with fourth place. At the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships in 2008 in Zakopane , Poland , he jumped from the normal hill to 64th place in the individual. After two disqualifications in the summer of 2008 in Velenje and Kranj in the Continental Cup, Lyowkin was relegated to the FIS Cup. From September 2008 in Lillehammer he was part of the team in the Continental Cup.
On January 9, 2009 Lyovkin won points in Sapporo for the first time in the Continental Cup. On January 17, 2009 he got the opportunity to qualify for the World Cup jumping in Zakopane. He missed the competition as 48th in qualifying. At the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships 2009 in Štrbské Pleso , he jumped from the normal hill to 45th place, with the team he reached 17th and penultimate place on the Štrbské Pleso hills . After the Junior World Championship, he remained without points in the Continental Cup. At the Kazakh championships in ski jumping 2009 , which took place in the context of the German championships on July 18, 2009 in Garmisch-Partenkirchen , he reached fifth place.
At the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships 2010 in Hinterzarten , he jumped to 34th place on the normal hill. No Kazakh team competed in the team competition. On February 5, 2010 he again took part in a qualification for a World Cup competition in Willingen , but with a 53rd place he missed this. In team jumping he reached 11th place with the team. On February 27, 2010 he succeeded in Wisła for the first time in two years to win points in the Continental Cup. In March he again missed a World Cup qualification in Lahti , but reached 12th place with the team in the team competition. In August 2010 he started unsuccessfully in the Ski Jumping Grand Prix . His best finish was a 37th place in Hakuba .
In the two Continental Cup competitions on his home hill in Almaty in September 2010, he only achieved lower places. Despite this, he received again the nomination for the Team World Cup in Kuusamo in November, where he was 12th with the team. At the following individual World Cup as well as at the Four Hills Tournament 2010/11 in Bischofshofen and Innsbruck , he clearly missed the qualification. At the Nordic World Ski Championships in Oslo in 2011 he also missed the qualification from the normal as well as the large hill, but reached 12th and 10th place with the team. A short time later he started at the 2011 Asian Winter Games in his home town of Almaty and won gold from the normal hill in front of Kazuya Yoshioka and Radik Schaparow . He finished sixth on the large hill. With the team he won the silver medal behind the team from Japan .
In July and August 2011 he competed again in the ski jumping Grand Prix , but had to admit defeat in the qualification in the first competitions. Only in Hinterzarten succeeded Lyowkin after a 10th place in the team competition with a 30th place to gain points. He also won points in Almaty, which brought him to 78th place overall. In the Continental Cup he was able to score again in Trondheim .
At the beginning of the 2011/12 World Cup season in Kuusamo , Lyovkin was eliminated again in qualification. In the team world cup he reached 11th place with the team. In the Continental Cup in Almaty , Lyovkin achieved a placement among the top twenty for the first time. For the Four Hills Tournament 2011/12 he started again in the World Cup squad. He managed to qualify for the jumping in Oberstdorf and Garmisch-Partenkirchen , where he finished 49th in each competition. After the qualification had to be canceled in Bischofshofen , he came to another competition there and finished 58th. In the end, he was 49th in the overall tournament ranking.
In the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships-2012 in Turkish Erzurum Ljowkin jumped to the 29th place in singles. Three days later he was in the squad for the ski flying world championship 2012 in Vikersund , where he finished 10th in the team competition with the team. After the ski flying world championship, he started again in the Continental Cup. He reached 42nd place on the Trampolino dal Ben in Predazzo before winning another Continental Cup point with 30th place on the same hill. In March 2012 he competed again in qualifications for the World Cup in Trondheim, Oslo and in ski flying in Planica, but missed the competition in all jumping. He also remained unsuccessful in the ski jumping Grand Prix 2012 and won points. His best placement was a 33rd place on the Hakuba ski jumps .
On November 10, 2012, Lyovkin had a car accident together with Nikolai Karpenko and Alexei Ptschelinzew in Almaty . Lyovkin was life-threateningly injured and admitted to the intensive care unit of a hospital in Almaty. He received donated blood, implants in the cervical spine and had to be artificially ventilated. At the beginning of December he started to breathe again and the feeling in his feet got back. He later rehabilitated in a hospital in Novosibirsk . As a result of his injuries, Lyowkin, like his teammates who were involved in the car accident, had to pause for the entire 2012/13 World Cup season . Lyovkin's hope to be able to train again from summer 2013 was not fulfilled; to this day he is dependent on a wheelchair.
The Kazakh Ski Association has also registered Lyovkin as a Nordic combined competitor at the International Ski Association , but he has not yet contested any international competitions in this discipline.
