Shane McConkey passed away today, March 26th, 2009, while ski-base jumping in Italy. He was a hero to the sport and to skiers everywhere and the community has suffered a great loss.<br /><br /><br />I have uploaded this video (his segment from Matchstick Production's Push) in his honor. It is probably my favorite McConkey segment (though there are many).<br /><br /><br />We love you Shane and you will be missed.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://ll.broadbandsports.com/images/27773_thumb.jpg" alt="Shane McConkey" title="Shane McConkey" width="150" height="90" alt="Shane McConkey"/>
