What’s up NS,

We're shooting another episode of 'Five Questions With' down in NZ and we're very stoked to announce that none other than Jossi Wells will be answering your questions in an episode brought to you by his long term sponsor, Dragon Alliance. Jossi has been around since the 'golden days' and took an X Games gold of his own on his 24th attempt. He's been to the Olympics for pipe and slope, filmed countless movie parts, and is unquestionably one of the most stylish, recognizable skiers out. Currently crushing it in the backcountry with the Deviate crew, Jossi has made a full transition from comp skier to backcountry boss. He's recovered from more injuries than we care to count, become an endurance cyclist, kills on a skateboard, and. if Instagram is to be believed, become something of a Masterchef to boot. And after a 2-year covid hiatus, his invitational returns to Cadrona at the beginning of September, bringing top skiers and snowboarders together for a rider-judged extravaganza. There's so much to ask about that keeping this to just five questions is going to be a challenge.

You all know the drill by now, the episode will consist of a whole bunch of bangers bundled with a short interview featuring five of your questions. So drop your questions below and we'll ask Jossi the best ones.

Would you say X Games needs to be revitalized(Personally I think so), and if so, what kinds of things would you want to see to get that done?
 
To me, you are the first big name to come out of NZ to have made an impact on major contests and ski films. Discuss the legacy you are leaving behind, with more and more young Kiwi skiers finding success. You stoked?
 
i used to watch your Season edit from 11-12 or 12-13 , it was the sickest compilation of sickness ever. lots of Snowpark jumps and pipe. It's nowhere to be found now, any chance you could repost it. Love the new stuff w/ TYW, thanks for the how to on how to get your shoulder back in place!
 
I know you recorded rap music. what's your rap name and why are you not on Soundcloud?

What happened after the Olympic zero spin run. I remember you got bashed from the NZ press but did anything actually happen, we’re people in New Zealand actually pissed? Did you lose a sponsorship? Did the president condemn you? Just wanna know more about the aftermath of the greatest Olympic jump run of all time. Much love.

How much influence do you get from Will Strobeck/Supreme skate edits in your flicks/skiing?

O/T but Strobeck filming is weird and uncomfortable. And he's not even the best at it anymore lol.
 
What have been your biggest inspirations for your style both on and off the snow and do you ever look back on previous style choices and cringe abit?
 
Has there ever been any bad blood between family due to jealousy about their skiing success/lifestyle, and if so, how has it played out?
