Italian championships gold 1909 Bardonecchia singles

Paolo Kind was an Italian ski jumper and later ski jumping official.

Paolo Kind, son of the Italian "ski jumping father" Adolfo Kind , won the first Italian championship in ski jumping in 1909 ahead of Mario Corti and Filippo Corti . At the same time as active ski jumping, Kind was involved in building up ski jumping in Italy. Among other things, he built the Campo Smith trampolino in Bardonecchia together with the then world record jumper Harald Smith . The first championship was finally held on the hill. As early as 1908, Kind founded the “Unione Ski Club Italiani”, which later became part of the Federazione Italiana Sport Invernali (FISI).
