my name is diana rudnitskaya, i came to raubich in 2018 at the age of 10, it was a sports camp in belarus. i went

to photos on vkontakte to see how it used to be here in raobychi, well, it’s cool, by the way, such other memories are completely different, but now it’s cool here, yeah, cooler, probably, than anywhere else, with the entrance to raobicha new spaces opened up for me... in the world of biathlon, driving up here to raobić, of course, i was overwhelmed with feelings, energy was seething, at that moment, of course, i understood that i was ready to move mountains, ready give everything here already on the raubic tracks to grow, grow and become an adult, serious athlete. raobichi near minsk has a magical effect, even on the example of three generations of our sport, from diana rudnitskaya, who is only 15 years old and...

it was in that year that dinaara olimbekova, now smolskaya in the same quartet with daria domracheva , became an olympic champion, but after great victories everyone always returned home, and they called raubich home. raubich, in its essence, is a very unusual place, a unique place, a huge sports complex, which is located near a city of two million, and in general , you probably won’t find anything like it anywhere else in the world.

it’s hard to imagine a comprehensive ski culture in the post-war era, but raobić as a world-class complex began with an ordinary ski track. anatoly pastukhov, who now works in our freestyle, himself paved the road in the vicinity of the village of raobicha, then he could not imagine what would be built here. i was an athlete, as they say, my coaches knew me, from recommended for work at such a high level of the state sports committee.

you went skiing as a child, yes, like in norway, you were born with skis, two pairs of skis pressed gently against the house, silent, almost lifeless, but in this house you and i are alive, i don’t sleep, you sleep, our only sentries , two pairs of skis , there were winters, wow, without skis, well, let’s say, no one imagined this village, before the appearance of the rav, that’s all...

after 2 years, its official rules were developed. the first world championship took place in 1958, that is, biathlon as the sport was gaining rapid development, and soviet athletes quickly began to win. in 1972, at the ibu congress, a historic decision was made; for the first time, the right to host a world biathlon forum was given to the soviet union, but where to hold such competitions? largely thanks to the persistence of the belarusians, the head of the republic pyotr masherov and the head of sports of the bssr viktor liventsev, the world championship is given to us. sport then emerged as an important connecting social element, such a conductor of relations between people, alternatives, museums, cinema, theaters, but sports sometimes outweighed.

there was nothing like this, so that all the elements were combined in one place. valman nikolaevich alladov is a unique person for belarus, from an outstanding , famous intelligent family, it was alladov who was offered to work on the architectural appearance of raubichi, he came up with

everything that we see today. and the first building that began to be built here, in fact, it begins, as it were, a composition, everything is here. after all, a year later there will be no great architect for post-war minsk, when the architectural design of raobichi appeared, a large construction project immediately began, the fact that

there would be a world championship in raobichi, this was generally for us for young athletes, it was something so incredible.

vladimir mulyavin's ensemble ry's song reaches its peak, and the khoroshka ensemble has appeared in the choreographic art of belarus. and this year, by decree of the presidium of the supreme soviet of the ussr, minsk was awarded the honorary title of hero city. the breakthrough memorial complex was inaugurated. minsk tractor plant has begun serial production of the famous sample tractor belarus. and bityevsk celebrated its millennium. and here is another big event, and at the start of the year , a sports complex appears near minsk on the very eve of the biathlon world championships, the location of the european part of the ussr, samirachi near the new airport of the big capital played a role here. yes, in order to save the

burning skiers of the planet, the hell of minsk and the paselka raubichy has not fallen, a unique complex has been published, equipped with the most current abstalyvannem. specialists will treat, that... the world championship opened brightly and it is only possible admire the number of spectators who filled every competition day of raobić. the legend still goes around, but it definitely happened. more than 100,000 spectators. my name is polyakov anatoly ivanovich. for the first time in raobic i went to the biathlon world championships in 1974. anatoly polyakov is a collective image. as a boy, who was 16 years old, he was in the makeshift stands of raobichi. and immediately after the world cup ended, i was one of the first to move into the complex. we have one photo in the archive, as spectators, they were right here during the world cup. and i was surprised to find out that.

it’s difficult to find a better complex , i’m glad that the record for the number of spectators since 1974 has not been achieved to this day, the 1974 world cup really had 100,000 in the stands, as they say, which means that here in the stands, of course , there were no such stands so that there were 1000, here it’s all in the area, if you look at where our jumps are located, all this is from - from the starting town there everything all over the track, there were spectators, it was continuous, especially the last day when the relay races took place, it was incredible, just

how many spectators there were, in the atmosphere of novelty, the details of the races remained in the background after 50 years, but the real star of the world championship was finnish yuhannis utorinin , he won both the classic individual and the sprint, which was held for the first time, the soviet athletes carried out the relay like real masters, one of them was a student of the minsk institute of physical education yura kolmakov, another four-time... and the opening date of the complex for many years was as follows: february 24, however, an excerpt from

the publication soviet sport has been corrected, from now on it is february 22 that raobichi celebrates his birthday. the then head of the international biathlon union, sven tofelt, was impressed by the organization, because the weather caused trouble not only in the 21st century, but then. biathlon thus became the basis. world championships in this sport will be held twice more, 80%. in the early nineties , the collapse of the soviet union will see sports facilities stage of the world cup in cross-country skiing, but was not given proper attention. in the second half of the nineties, everything would change radically; measures had to be taken by force of will. this is not just a company, but this is the salvation of unique objects of our country. another year or two and there was nothing to save, it was necessary to take a bulldozer and demolish everything.

a similar impetus was given by the president of belarus alexander lukashenko. iraubich, as a brand of the republic, could not stand aside. the head of state himself has repeatedly tested the strength of the uraubichi highway. minsk ski track then now has become one of the favorite mass sports holidays in belarus. from 2013 to 2015 , a full-scale reconstruction took place in uaubichi, just in time for the start of the junior championship.

then today’s conditions will last for several more decades, because in rablichi today there is everything, there is probably only one thing missing - this is the highlands, you can’t bring mountains here, you can’t put raubich on them, everyone still praises the pizza, they’ve tried it too, yes, of course, it’s really special, the rauban pizza is very tasty, and there’s a real oven here, they make it very tasty pizza, i recommend, in addition to winter sports, raovichi can provide excellent conditions for training and other sports, we ourselves saw how

volleyball teams and basketball teams also came here, that is, they could train here. athletes , well, now it’s possible for athletes of different sports, this is very cool, it probably also somehow unites in general, creates such an atmosphere around the complex, open, we see ski slopes right there when we watch competitions, it’s clear that roller circles also pass through the same places, in the depths of the forest there are still a huge number of paths intended for running, for imitation... training, many of these circles also have their own names, one of the running circles, which is called chamomile, that is, with its weaves , well, here you can - from above, if you look, it forms something like a flower, the climbs also have their own names, there are climbs that are called camels, these are two climbs, here we

see one of them - it is heading here by descent, behind it there is another also like a hump camel, that is, two or two humps, there is a stove , remember everything, yes, there is a stove, the stove is in the outer circles, well, such a magical forest, i managed to stay in all the hotels that are in raobichi, and this is one of them, then before here the floors were painted in the colors of the olympic rings, razhunkov is finishing his career, there is actually a grandfather there, well, in a good way, there are fences here, there are stands, but you remember all this very well, this is essentially the first worker you came here, yes.

that is, they were really impressed the complex and the hospitality of the complex , such a place, you know, now many people use it from a romantic point of view , to take good pictures, to take photographs, as i understand it, during your time there was no observation deck there, yes, but still the view from there was probably very beautiful, yes , now where we are going up, i’m looking forward to seeing what it looks like now, when we just started training here, we still climbed higher, climbed onto the springboard to take a look at raobicce, in general... the surroundings from a bird's eye view, when we climbed up, that's what you talked about, and what you dreamed about, what you discussed there, it was just a way of spending time to change the situation a little from training such - serious moments, it was more like entertainment for us, that is we didn’t discuss such moments, here we are at the top, no, this

didn’t happen, but it was all for a good mood, just to relax some kind of well... and of course the view from there is gorgeous, firstly, from the eighties years, yes, and you now a deputy director, you work in the office in which you first moved here in the eighties, when it was still a hotel, right? yes, an amazing fact that shows, using your example, that raubich is destiny. i hope it remains a meca for athletes now. in 1980 i performed and did cross-country skiing. since 1986, i switched to biathlon, and when you were a child, you generally knew that here, that raobich opened in belarus, it was a well-known fact to the republic then, partly it was my passion for cross-country skiing, i myself come from minsk and lived near green onions, so part of the training process was organized here, we had a very enthusiastic coach, it

was an encouragement to come to training in rabličk, let’s start with yours. .. bolechskaya of the year, the history of biathlon is announced; remember, as spectators, you can accurately reproduce when you first came to rabochi, what was it? i remember exactly that i was here at the 2004 european open championships, it was my first time at the biathlon, so i remember it very much, a little later, probably, i also participated here as a supporter of my son, when the ice skating rink appeared, the republican championship matches were taking place and my wife and i came, cheered for...

athletes today have a functional state, who what we are ready for , of course, unfortunately , we could not take a reserve with us, we take obligations - for ourselves, with our team, for about 3-4 years, a long-term plan - in which - taking into account the desires, we do not take a ten-year period, because sport is truly dynamic regarding and rules of the competition, and of course, the structures , look, there on the head it looks like this: you see, it’s like in the palm of your hand and the feeling of flight, a very beautiful view in the evening, when the illuminated track turns on, gorgeous, there’s nothing

comparable, we’re going to work, yes you are you come here all the time, i’m interested in you as a car enthusiast in general, well, of course, yes , i’m a car enthusiast, i love driving very much, traveling, and you, as a promoter, when you arrive, you think about how exactly here... not only to walk, but also how to logistically, was it all arranged more comfortably? well, in principle, the object is very compact, today we have a complex that, in general, is sandwiched by certain hills on all sides, and therefore even adding some objects today is very problematic, the beauty that we must preserve , this is probably the most important thing for us today, we are stopping by our host yard, we have a working environment here. this is not a small bus station, i want to say, we have three large buses, small buses, medium capacity, that is, equipment

ranging from loaders, tractors, excavators, a map in general is not needed, we know, yes, what we have where, what problems we have today, today, by the way, is a very convenient position in our observation tower, where we have finished renovating the hall, everything is clearly visible there, especially this part that is located here, we still have the trampolines, the trampolines are also a symbol of this complex, they are everywhere, they are symbolic, i think that this sport is still alive and worthy, uh, ours

young people compete today in russian competitions, at a minimum, so some minimum, as a training base, i think that for the springboards, it is also necessary to create a full-fledged complex for freestyle with all their wishes, there today, well, i think, is probably the best complex, probably in the world , because, you know, freestyle is carried out with...

firstly, these are amazing conditions for an athlete, and secondly, it’s already beautiful, that is , when this is combined, this is of course a big plus, so, but there are a lot of beautiful stadiums in

world, and the workers are alone. our charms, all our objects, at a glance, well, here, you know, it’s so beautiful, and i would like to wish you the people of irabi for the next 50 years, that everything here will settle down and develop, that everything will be fine, thank you.

i would never say that the raubichs are 50 years old, they look much younger. what is raubich for you? is this a lifestyle? for me this is home. what is raubich for you? first of all? some new thoughts and ideas are constantly being born, when my employees here started calling me a dreamer, why am i here? i’ll dream up something, well, the most important thing, probably, is the atmosphere, just the raubic atmosphere, that’s the whole place where it’s located. you come here as if you find yourself in a completely different place, for you, first of all, raubich is, in a few words, possible, yes, of course, a breath and a dream.

review of the most important sporting events. perhaps the next sharangovich will soon be born here. loud statements accompanied the opening of the forty-sixth ice rink in belarus. we are sure that here future hockey champions will grow up. exclusive interview with athletes, if previously the national teams were predominantly represented by children from minsk schools, now we are already seeing how children from the regions are beginning to dominate, bright moments , real emotions, i myself came from molodechno, that’s why we are all trying, everything we want to reach the highest places, no matter what, the result that i

showed today in today’s state, i’m... really pleased with the result, i have such a preparation strategy, i’m preparing for olympic games, it’s probably even the athlete’s duty to believe in it and prepare for it. all this is in sports projects on the belarus 24 tv channel.
