Great handstand-acrobat at Berliner Akrotreffen (Berlin Acrobatic gathering)

In the open stage of the Berliner Akrotreffen (22-11-2008) this superb acrobat did a surprise-performance.
I beleive he's Russian, but I don't know his name. He just walked in and did this unbelievable (partly improvised?) routine, and went off !
I don't think there's many people who can do things like this with such ease.
To my knowledge the coming up from one-armed crocodile to handstand is unique.
Does anyone know this guy's name?

The audience is all acrobats, but they were all flabbergasted!

This is yuri thikonovich he's amazing. The crocodile to one arm habdstand is far from unique but it is extremely difficult and the way that he does it over and over again is just crazy.

@palmcron Yuri does sound familiar, and there are not so many people who can do a one-arm-handstand-push-up, but 'my guy' seems a bit more sturdy, Yuri seems a bit more lean, and Yuri's face in the closer shots doesn't ring a bell to me...It's really stupid but I just don't know...

Could it be Yuri Thikonovich?
