After having completed his adventure called & ldquo; Transiceland 2016 & rdquo; walking 730 km on skis or on foot through the & rsquo; from north to south Iceland Ivica Kosteli & # 263; He has made a decision on his immediate future. L & rsquo; he announced himself on his Facebook page.

The 36-year old Croat has decided to continue the & rsquo; activity & agrave; competitive at least until January 5, 2017, the day when the long-term calendar of the Men's World Cup, & egrave; expected the men's slalom in Zagreb night, to his home.
& Ldquo; Walking through the & rsquo; Iceland I often thought about my future. My great desire & egrave; compete at least one & rsquo; last time in front of my home crowd at the Snow Queen Trophy in Zagreb. Therefore memorize options I decided to continue racing until at least next January. L & rsquo; possible continuation of skiing career will depend & agrave; the results and the condition of my knee & rdquo ;.
Recall that Kosteli & # 263; & Egrave; was l & rsquo; last, in 2010-2011, to win the men's World Cup before the & rsquo; beginning of & rsquo; era of Marcel Hirscher, but for some time now its results are extremely deficient, particularly when you see it in slalom testing a great sadness thinking about the great champion that & egrave; state.
In life you never know, especially in skiing, but if its results continue to be in deficit we hope that the good Ivica realize that sar & agrave; time to hang on a nail skiing. Given that the time was not gi & agrave; He arrived at the end of the season ended a month ago.
