Right next to the former ski jump, two sky loungers have been set up against each other.

The natural hill was completely re-profiled in 1971 according to the plans of the Oberstdorf Schanzenarchitekten Heini Klopfer as K40. 1985 was the last time the Sindelfinger cup jumping held.

As early as 1933, members of the Sindelfingen Black Forest Club built a ski jump in the Herrenwäldle area, but it did not survive the war.

Due to the snow-sure winters at the time and the growing activities of winter sports enthusiasts from the Sindelfingen Black Forest Club and the local ski club, an illuminated ski slope and a toboggan run were built at the Winterhalde with the city's support in the early 1960s. In 1964, these facilities were expanded to include a ski jump.

The purely natural ski jump was then completely redesigned as the K40 in 1971 according to the plans of Oberstdorf ski jump architect Heini Klopfer. A wooden judges' tower was built, and the spectator stands and access roads were expanded. Sindelfingen-based building contractor Erwin Frank, who had himself been an avid ski jumper in his youth, played a significant role in the renovation. In February 1972, in cooperation with the Sindelfingen Sports Office, after two postponements due to a lack of snow, the inauguration of the new Winterhalden ski jump took place in front of a large crowd. Max Bolkart – eight-time German champion, fourth at the 1956 Olympics, and, with a jump of 139 meters, also an absolute ski jumper of his time – was recruited as a highly successful ski jumper who, despite his retirement from international sport, still embodied class. Snowy winters were followed by the Stuttgart Ski District Championships, and from 1980 onward, the Sindelfingen Cup Jumping Competition was established, with its last event taking place in 1985. Due to the changing winters and the increasing lack of snow, the ski jumping group disintegrated, and young talent stayed away. Vandals did the rest, causing the judges' tower to burn down in 1988. The ski club's application to rebuild the jump in 2004 was rejected by the city administration.
