Noriaki Kasai hopes to compete at the 2018 Winter Olympics at the age of 45.

Japanese medallist Noriaki Kasai has vowed that he will continue improving his game in order to compete at the next Winter Olympics.

The 41-year-old, who claimed silver in the men's large hill competition at the 2014 Sochi Games, became the oldest ski jumper ever to win at the Olympics.

"Someone my age should be thinking about retiring," Kasai told reporters. "At the next Olympics I will be 45, then the one after that 49.

"I'm still really hopeful I'll be able to keep performing and improving technically so that I can prepare for the next Olympics."

Kasai is competing in his seventh Winter Olympics.
