Russian snowboarder

Alexey Sobolev (born in Novosibirsk on 1 September 1991) is a Russian snowboarder competing in slopestyle and big air.

Sobolev qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics where he finished in 20th place in the men's slopestyle, being eliminated in the semifinal.

He garnered attention because his board may reference the band Pussy Riot and because his helmet had his iPhone's telephone number printed on the side until he was forced to cover it up by officials.
