I mean, every member of NS owe this guy so much. Im only 16, but hey, i started wathing ski movie's when i was 7, and i just loved Shane's segments. His segments made me want to go skiing, and so i did and that have probably made me into the person i am today.

RIP Shane McConkey

please Mr. Bishop. leave it up for a while. for a long while. he means so much to NS. and he has inspired so many of us. to take him down after a month or so would be totally unworthy of the legend of Shane McConkey.

Agreed, this is a brilliant tribute to a brilliant skier.

If we could have it as a download, to show our love, it would be much appreciated.

Would it be weird or out of line if Bishop wrote a letter to the family or emailed him and everyone somehow would be able to sign it? Ionno just a thought

I haven't read many posts after yours but if you want to make it your background or something just right click the background and then go to "View Page Info" and select the media tab.  In there under the address area there should be a bunch of http: stuff to click and go down through till you find the image and you can save it to your comp and use it.  Th
