The 34-year-old Upper Austrian announced this to the LT1 radio station. "My career will continue. I want to add another season where I put everything I have into it," said Kriechmayr.

Last season, he won World Cup races number 19 and 20, but once again came away empty-handed in the individual races at the Olympic Games.
