Marco Klepoch (born 3 November 1997) is a Slovak figure skater.[1] He is the 2018 Crystal Skate of Romania champion, the 2014 New Year's Cup silver medalist, and a five-time Slovak national champion (2013–15, 2019, 2021).

Career

On the ice from the age of five, Klepoch began skating because his father wanted him to learn a variety of sports.[2][3] His first instructor was Eva Takáčová and then Vladimir Dvojnikov.[3] He is a member of ŠKP Bratislava's skating club and trains at the Vladimír Dzurilla ice rink in Bratislava.[4]
