According to a report of the Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat, Ville Larinto is seriously considering ending his ski jumping career.

"This season was very bad and disappointing for me. After it I just wanted to gain some distance and not talk about ski jumping with anybody", the 25-year-old is quoted on iltasanomat.fi. He also told that a career end is a serious option for him right now and that he already applied for admission to study business in Lahti.

Ville Larinto could win a World Cup competition in Kuopio in December 2010, but since then he often suffered setbacks due to serious injuries. Last winter his best result was a 15th place in Nizhniy Tagil.
