Nikolai "Nick" Apter (Russian: Николай Аптер) is a former pair skater who represented the Soviet Union. With his skating partner, Elena Nikonova, he won silver at three senior international competitions – 1991 Skate America, 1991 Grand Prix International St. Gervais, and 1990 Skate Electric.[1][2] As juniors, they won the gold medal at the 1988 Blue Swords.[2]

After retiring from competition, Apter performed as an adagio pair skater with Eteri Tutberidze.[3] As of June 10, 2022, he has left the Ice and Golf Center at Northwoods, San Antonio, Texas to an unknown location (probably Michigan).[4][5]
