History:
Max Fischer from Wangen im Allgäu was one of the best Nordic combined athletes in Germany in the 1930s. In 1933 he became German champion in Baiersbronn. On his home hill, the Praßberg-Schanze at Beutelsau close to Wangen, he also won the Swabian championship in 1934 with the best jump of 41 meters.
After Fischer fell during the war in 1942, the 1950 new-constructed ski jump at Argental in Oberau was named after him. SV Falken Wangen held larger competitions there, the so-called "International polar bear tournaments". For the third tournament in 1953 the hill was converted, but already about 2 years later its end came, as the slope slipped after heavy rainfalls.
