History:
In March 1937, a 47-metre wooden ski jump was opened in the very centre of Petrozavodsk, in the Senatorka district. Before that time, Petrozavodsk residents had twice tried to build such a construction, but both times they were defeated: Karelian ski enthusiasts lacked experience. The Leningraders were asked for help, and under the guidance of engineer Meyer they fulfilled the task. It is noteworthy that Meyer himself was the first to make a jump from the Petrozavodsk ski jump at the opening ceremony. Since then, the capital of Karelia has repeatedly hosted various competitions, but by the early 1950s the ski jump began to deteriorate, and ten years later it was completely unusable.
In 1953, a project was developed to create a ski base near the Onezhskiy Razezd railway station, and a 50-metre ski jump was to be located on the territory of the base.
A small wooden training ski jump existed in the mid-1980s in the area of the now half-abandoned Lokomotiv Stadium.
