Not too many kids even get in a helicopter at the age of nine, but that is what Jossi Wells did. And not just for a quick ride, he was dropped off the top of the mountain, skied down in front of judges and was crowned the victor of the New Zealand Rip Curl Heli challenge.
Since then he has continued to light the ski world on fire. 2007 saw Jossi on podiums in nearly all the major events, the youngest skier at Winter X Games and winning the European Open Superpipe against the deepest field ever.
