Simon Ammann will not be participating in this week’s world ski flying championships in Planica. Toggenburger is taking a break from competition due to its persistent drop in form.

When Ammann will return to the World Cup it is open. The four-time Olympic champion remains pointless in his 24th World Cup season after 5 competitions. Last weekend he missed the final in Nizhny Tagil again in 32nd and 35th place, although the best jumpers from Poland and Austria had not even started the trip to Russia.

Not at first for the first time

In spring, the 39-year-old Ammann surprised everyone with the announcement that he would extend his career by 2 years until the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. For the 2010 world ski flight champion, it is the first time since his first double Olympic victory in 2002 in Salt Lake City that he will not be at the start of international championships.
