Description
the only ski jump in Warsaw... but better don't try to use it

b&w

April '09, Mokotow, Warsaw

Ski jump "Skarpa". Designed by J. Kodelski, J. Strachocki and M. Strzelecki. Built in 1955-59. It had artificial surface, so people used in on summer season. In the beggining - only then, because the surface wasn't suitable for use when the snow was there... Till the seventies it was important training centre. After that time, when the ski jumps in the mountains change the surface into artificial, it lost it's meaning. It was also too small for highly skilled competitors. From the nineties it went to ruck and ruin... Upper part was disassembled, special surfaces too. Starting tower and lower part of run-up still stand...
