Sporting career

At the 2013 Summer Universiade he won silver in K-4 200 m. He is European Championships medalist.

At the 2017 European championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, he finished third in pair with Ivan Semykin in K-2 500 m. But in November 2017, Trunov received a four-year suspension following a positive drug in-competition test taken in May 2017. He was therefore stripped of the silver medal he won at the 2017 European championships. He returned to competitions after his ban ended and became 2021 World champion in the K–4 500 m event (together with Oleh Kukharyk, Dmytro Danylenko, and Ivan Semykin).
