    Fulfilled wishes and even higher goals

    16.01.2017

    Last year, I was more than thrilled and happy to watch our Slovenian girls jump in Ljubno, where they fulfilled our not so quiet wishes. All the girls successfully passed the qualification round, and then achieved three historic podium placements on the renovated ski jump. Including the first Slovenian victory in Ljubno! I was overcome with emotions. My hometown of Ljubno grew even closer to my heart and got bigger not just in my eyes but also in the eyes of women's ski jumping fans.

    Straight to the top from underneath the Rajhovka peak

    16.01.2017

    The goal we set ourselves in Ljubno last year has been reached with great success. Together, with loads of effort, plenty of resources, and especially a lot of love for ski jumping, which the people of Ljubno have felt for more than 80 years, we managed to set up a new, modern ski jumping centre, with the ski jumping hill renovated to meet FIS standards. To top it off, the Slovenian eagles rewarded our efforts with the highest podium spots. I am glad that the national ski jumping centre is becoming not only a home to ski jumping, but also the cradle of talent and a knowledge exchange hub for excellent athletes, who make us proud and carry the name of Ljubno and Slovenia to the very top of international ski jumping.

    Ljubno is not resting on its laurels

    16.01.2017

    The ski jump at the foot of the Rajhovka peak near Ljubno ob Savinji offers a beautiful vista of the town and gives it a magnificent imprint with its impressive beauty. Adding to this beauty are the near-by smaller ski jumps. These functional objects neatly complement the entire sports area, to which the people of Ljubno want to add more sports facilities and tourism areas. In this manner, they would get a comprehensive sports area that could host different sports activities and offer lodging amidst the untouched nature. At the same time, the town would represent a great starting point for visiting and sightseeing natural and cultural sites in the Upper Savinja Valley.

    With a win and two additional podium placements, Maja Vtič and Špela Rogelj made history in Ljubno in 2016. It was a fantastic weekend that wrote an amazing success story for which both girls had been working hard and with great passion almost their entire lives. Although there are always some tough moments that make them want to escape the ski jumping arena, they both agree on having this sport in their blood and quickly dismiss the thought of a life without ski jumping.

    Little ski jumper Lana

    16.01.2017

    As a playful girl, Lana Šikovec first discovered ski jumping where else but in Ljubno. When she turned seven, she had already been ski jumping for a year and a half. Now she is a member of ski jumping club SSK Alpina, where she trains under the careful mentorship of Gašper Klinec and Matic Benedik. Despite her young age, Lana is well aware of the importance of her schoolwork, which comes first, with ski jumping following soon after. Although she is a perfectionist, rivalry is not her priority. A word of praise from her coach motivates her the most, while her current goal is to jump as far as possible. Her present record is 10.5 metres. Right now, Lana is placed 15th among girls up to the age of 9 in Slovenia.

    Ski jump Ljubno

    15.01.2016

    The beginning of skiing tradition in Ljubno goes back to the time before WWII, while organised ski jumping itself started with the foundation of the ski jumping club SSK Gozdar after WWII. At that time, a group of Ljubno locals was attending international competitions in Planica, where they decided they were going to build a ski jump in Ljubno as well. They contacted the constructor of the giant ski jump in Planica, Stane Bloudek, and signed a contract in 1947 that would result in a 60-metre ski jump, completed in 1953. In the nineties, the ski jump was rebuilt and extended to 80 metres. In 2005, the locals reconstructed the ski jump according to the modern regulations of the FIS, and have been hosting ski jumping competitions for women at the highest level ever since 2006.
