Kvassov made his official debut for Kyrgyzstan at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. He failed to reach the top 16 final in the 400 m freestyle, finishing twenty-sixth in a time of 4:00.69.[2] A member of the Kyrgyzstan team, he also placed eighteenth in the 4×100 m freestyle relay (3:30.62), and seventeenth in the 4×200 m freestyle relay (8:00.00).[3][4]

At the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Kvassov competed only in two swimming events. He eclipsed a FINA B-cut of 1:53.76 (200 m freestyle) from the Kazakhstan Open Championships in Almaty.[5] On the first day of the Games, Kvassov placed twenty-first for the Kazakhstan team in the 4×100 m freestyle relay. Teaming with Sergey Borisenko, Pavel Sidorov, and Igor Sitnikov in heat three, Kvassov swam a second leg and recorded a split of 52.25, but the Kazakhs settled only for last place in a final time of 3:28.90.[6][7] The following day, in the 200 m freestyle, Kvassov placed forty-eighth on the morning prelims. Swimming in heat two, he touched out Cyprus' Alexandros Aresti for a seventh seed by almost a full body length in 1:55.72.[8][9]

Two years later, at the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea, Kvassov failed to medal in any of his individual events, finishing sixteenth in the 50 m freestyle (24.13), and tenth in the 100 m freestyle (52.27).[10][11]
