He's living the dream - famous all around the world, but able to slip in and out of New Zealand without raising an eyebrow. At just 20 years old Jossi Wells is one of our most well known sportsmen on the fast-growing action sports circuit.

He's been skiing since he was just 18 months old - and is so good he's now fronting ad campaigns for Nike, along with his own TV series.

But it's not all gloss and glamour - he's racked up an incredible seven years of continuous winter.

So what drives this world champion? 20/20's Sonya Wilson heads to the slopes to check out his incredible aerial feats - and finds a family full of talent. You'll have to see this story to believe what he can do!
