Irina Andreyevna Avvakumova née Taktayeva (Russian: Ирина Андреевна Аввакумова (Тактаева) ; born 14 September 1991) is a Russian ski jumper. She is a multiple-time Russian national ski jumping champion, and won the women’s Continental Cup season in 2012/13.

This is the best placement of any Russian Olympic ski jumper ever, and the best since 1968 (when Vladimir Belousov won a gold medal in the large hill) if the Soviet Union is included.

In 2012 her best World Cup results are the 13th and 14th position in Zao and Hinzenbach respectively. With her Russian team she placed 11th in Lillehammer (23 November 2012).

In Russian media and in several rankings, Avvakumova’s maiden name Taktaeva (also Taktayeva, Russian Тактаева) is also used or rather used again. On 23 December 2011, Irina Taktaeva married Maxim Avvakumov and from 2012/2013 on all rankings should have changed to Avvakumova, as did the FIS ranking.
