Yes it's Alexey Molchanova.
I think they use handmade, tailormade, Hyperfins.ru (Brand not the type)
Natalia Molchanova's telephonenumber and emailadres is on the hyperfins website.

Kars

Re: Who is this freediver?

Just a small note for those not familiar with Slavic languages, and not distinguishing between Molchanov and Molchanova. In some Slavic languages, including Russian, the ending of the name differs for women. Some names may not change with gender, to others you add the ending "a": Molchanov - Molchanova. That's in Russian; in Czech, or Slovak you add "ová": Zetoch - Zetochová. Most funny, or even stupid is that in Czech you ought to add the gender ending to foreign names too. Molchanova would so transform into Molchanovová, and for example Hillary Clinton is reported in news as Clintonová

Actually it's not that simple in Slovak...

To be precise... Zetocha (M) - Zetochova (F)
