This guy Louis is a ripper.

He's been on skis since he could walk and now, 20 years on, he's going to his first Olympics.

Alpine skiing - that's the downhill one - is his sport and he'll be competing with the best in a couple of events.

For Louis though, just getting to Beijing has been an uphill battle with plenty of sacrifices. We chat about his Youth Olympic medal from a few years back, his feelings about receiving donations to fund skiing travels, plus moving to the other side of the world alone at 16, but not before Louis kicks things off with one of the most controversial admissions you'll ever hear.
