The history of ski jumping in Uglegorsk, a coastal town on Sakhalin Island, dates back to the beginning of the 21st century and is closely linked to Alexander Koinov, a great sports enthusiast and youth coach. It was he who built the first ski jump in 2001 on a hillside. There were 3 ground facilities (5, 10, 20 m), located near the secondary school. In 2004, the record for the largest facility was set by Alexander Shibayev, who reached a distance of 29.5m. The last record holder was Denis Veselov with 41 metres.
Koinov had been trying to bring about a ski base and full-fledged ski jumping hills for his students since the beginning, but the construction project was postponed for a long time. Although the ski jumping section in Uglegorsk has given rise to the careers of many of the region's and even the country's strongest athletes, it was difficult to find funding for the realisation of this project. Promises were made by both the governor of the Sakhalin region and the regional Ministry of Sport, yet the investment was not in the budget until 2019.
The new K40 was inaugurated in February 2024, besides it also the K15 and K28 are in operation. The opening of the large facility celebrated the annual district jumping championships. Tests lasted two days, with jumpers from the entire region gathering in Uglegorsk for this purpose. Despite the frost reaching -20 C, about 100 citizens turned up to cheer on the athletes, and the biggest applause went to 5-year-old Senya Nalobin. The new hill record was set by Ilya Kozlov, the jumper from Uglegorsk landed on 42 metres.
