Vladimir Evgenyevich Morozov (Russian: Владимир Евгеньевич Морозов; born 1 November 1992) is a Russian pair skater. With partner Evgenia Tarasova, he is the 2017 World bronze medalist, the 2017 European champion, the 2016–17 Grand Prix Final champion, and a three-time Russian national medalist (silver in 2015 and 2017, bronze in 2016). Earlier in their career, they became the 2014 World Junior silver medalists and the 2014 Russian national junior champions.
Vladimir Evgenyevich Morozov was born on 1 November 1992 in Potsdam, Germany. He is studying psychology at the Moscow State University for the Humanities.
Advised by his singles coach to try pairs due to his height and build, Morozov joined Nina Mozer's group in 2007. He skated three seasons with his first partner, Irina Moiseeva. They won three medals at Warsaw Cup — novice gold in 2007 and 2008 and junior silver in 2009 — and junior gold at the 2009 NRW Trophy. They split at the end of the 2009–10 season.
Morozov competed the next two seasons with Ekaterina Krutskikh. Their coach was Stanislav Morozov. In the 2011–12 season, they debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series, finishing 6th and 8th at JGP events in Latvia and Estonia. Krutskikh/Morozov withdrew from the 2012 Russian Junior Championships following the short program and parted ways at the end of the season.
