Teen scores NZ's first Winter X Games medal
Wanaka skier Jossi Wells (pictured left) made history by becoming the first New Zealander to score a medal at the Winter X Games, winning a silver in the slopestyle event in Aspen, Colorado.
Wells, 17, completed a successful outing when he also placed fifth in the superpipe event yesterday.
The slopestyle gold was won by Norwegian Andreas Hatveit (centre in picture) who only overtook Wells in the last run, scoring a near-perfect 94 to Wells' 90. Third place went to Jon Olssen, also of Norway, on 87.
Wells said winning an X Games medal was a dream come true.
"But this is not enough for me... I am going to train really hard this year and come back and win it next year.
"My life goal is to win X Games gold in both slopestyle and superpipe in the same year."

Having been a keen skier most of my life I remember the day when Annelese Coberger won our first ever winter Olympic medal in the 1992 Winter Olympics. Today is another great day for New Zealand Skiing.
