Remembering a Legend: Shane McConkey
With ski season just around the corner it is hard not to think about the great loss the industry had last year when Shane McConkey pasted away while ski /base jumping. Being someone that I have personally never met and only seen in videos, I am still constantly amazed at how much of an effect that event had on me. A few nights ago while rooting around the internet I found a Powder Mag article that not just other pros, but Shane's peers commented about Shane and the type of person he was.
Check out the Powder article here.
Not only do I hope to be a small percentage of the skier he was, but now I can hope to be as great of a father.
