Story

Construction site (northern slope of the Aibga ridge, territory of the complex winter views sport "Mountain Carousel") was chosen by foreign experts. The choice was due to the surrounding landscape - between two mountain ranges that protect athletes from crosswinds. At the same time, an important requirement for the construction was the harmonious integration ski jumps into the surrounding landscape.

In the name of the complex, two foreign words turn into the word "Russian": "Rus" and "Ski" (the last word is translated as "Skis").

Construction started in 2008 and was carried out in several stages - at the end of each of which the facilities were put into operation. Thus, already in 2012, the complex hosted the first Russian and international competitions: one of the stages of the Russian Cup in ski jumping, as well as stages of a similar World Cup.

Infrastructure of the Russian Hills complex

Now most of the time the infrastructure of the complex is empty - in separate days training and internal competitions are held here. The rest of the time - the complex is visited by tourists. You can visit the venues of the legendary Olympics on any day of the week, from 10:00 to 17:00. But you must first agree on the time of the tour. The tour includes visiting the sports facilities of the complex and the exhibition hall, as well as watching videos about the history of the facility.

The infrastructure of the complex includes:

Jumping complex. Springboards K-125 and K-95 are certified and suitable for international competitions both in summer and in winter. The launch pad includes: 36 cabins for pre-preparation of skis, locker rooms for athletes, a chair lift to the launch site. The coating of the jumps themselves is made according to the German technology for freezing ski tracks, and the mountain for landing is made of Finnish coating. Places for acceleration are equipped with ceramic tracks. Snowmaking of the zone is carried out by an automatic system. The spectator stands at the ski jumps can accommodate up to 6,000 fans.
Cross-country skiing track. The cross-country skiing track is organically integrated into the landscape. The length of the track is 2.5 km, the height is 650 meters, the elevation difference is up to 50 meters. The track with a width of 6 to 9 meters is equipped next to the ski jumps (in the roll-out zone).

Now the complex is used as a venue for stages of various competitions of the Russian and international levels. In October of the "Olympic" 2014, the Russian summer championship was held at the "Roller Hills".
