History
On the world stage, ski jumping is one of the most popular and spectacular winter sports. Starting from the first Winter Olympic Games (France, 1924), ski jumping has been included in the program of these prestigious competitions, which currently attract more than 50 thousand spectators. Almost every country in Europe is involved in this sport. In ski jumping, the leading position is occupied by athletes from Austria, Norway, Japan, Germany, Finland, Slovenia, Poland, Switzerland and Russia. A fundamental feature of the development of winter sports, the achievements of athletes from different countries is the dependence of achievements on the state of the sports facilities, equipment and equipment. Every year, the International Ski Federation makes significant adjustments to sports equipment. Jumping suits have undergone more significant changes. The advantage of the above-mentioned countries is due to the presence of operating ski jumps with artificial surfaces, systems for preparing artificial snow, simulators and the use of a wind tunnel in the training of athletes throughout the year. For the first time in Ukraine, "ski jumping competitions from a ski jump" were held in Kharkiv in 1904. Today, ski jumping from a ski jump is developing in sports schools of Ivano-Frankivsk (village Vorokhta, village Verkhovyna, city Nadvirna) and Ternopil (city Kremenets) regions. 488 athletes train in two departments of the Youth Sports School and two SDYUSHOR, 18 coaches work, 17 of whom are full-time (94.4%). Of these, 8 have the I and higher coaching categories (47.1%). Currently, there are 14 training ski jumps in Ukraine, unfortunately, many of them need reconstruction, and 9 of them are equipped with artificial turf and ceramic ski slopes, which allows conducting training and All-Ukrainian competitions of various levels practically throughout the year.
The ski jump complex of the National Ski School "Avangard" in the village of Vorokhta was the best during the Soviet Union and is certainly the best in Ukraine now. For more than fifteen years, the international competitions "Carpathian Cup" have been held on the ski jump with a capacity of K-90 m. There were years when the world ski jumping elite came to Vorokhta. Already today, teams from Russia, Belarus, and Romania come to Vorokhta for the NTZ. At the XX Winter Olympic Games in 2006 in Turin (Italy), a native of Ivano-Frankivsk region, Volodymyr Boschchuk, took part. He took 61st place in the K-95 m springboard and 67th place in the K-125 m springboard.
