Three-time world champion continues as Saatva ambassador as restorative luxury sleep brand extends its U.S. Figure Skating partnership and expands community skating initiatives<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Saatva<\/a>, Restorative Luxury Sleep Company, today announced the continuation of its ambassadorship with three-time world champion Ilia Malinin<\/a> alongside a two-year extension of its official partnership with U.S. Figure Skating<\/a> through 2028. As Malinin prepares for the 2026\u201327 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series, Saatva is celebrating its continued partnership by launching the national \u201cSaatva Skate America Dream Experience Sweepstakes,\u201d<\/strong> which gives one fan the chance to attend the 2026 Saatva Skate America<\/a> in person and meet Malinin privately during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Widely known as the \u201cQuad God\u201d for his groundbreaking technical ability, Malinin has helped push the boundaries of men\u2019s figure skating. He became the first skater to successfully land a quadruple Axel in competition in 2022 and made history again in 2025 by landing seven quadruple jumps in a single program at the ISU Grand Prix Final. A four-time U.S. champion and three-time consecutive World champion, Malinin also won gold with Team USA in the figure skating team event at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026. His combination of technical innovation and competitive achievements has established him as one of the defining athletes of his generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always loved competition and the challenge of chasing new goals. I\u2019m grateful to have a partner like Saatva that supports figure skating and understands the importance of recovery,\u201d said Malinin. \u201cQuality rest helps me reset and come back ready for what\u2019s next. That\u2019s why I love my Saatva Rx Mattress<\/a> and enjoy sharing my favorite Saatva sleep products<\/a> with others who want to make rest a priority, too. I\u2019m also excited to meet a fan at Saatva Skate America and share the excitement of competition with them through this sweepstakes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to deepen our partnership with U.S. Figure Skating and continue supporting athletes and communities that make this sport so special,\u201d said Joe McCambley<\/a>, Chief Marketing Officer at Saatva. \u201cIlia embodies the dedication and pursuit of excellence that make figure skating so inspiring. From supporting his journey and bringing fans closer to the sport to creating opportunities for young skaters in Everett, we\u2019re excited to help make the sport more accessible. We believe the pursuit of excellence starts with taking care of yourself, and restorative sleep is an essential part of that journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
