I got this email from Shane:

Uuuuuhhhhhh.........Wow!
Thank God this sport died!



CIMG1018.jpgShane McConkey has pretty much solidified his skiing alter ego as a BASE jumper in the off season. Being that the states are experiencing a pretty dry early season (except you lucky dogs in CO and AK), McConkey saw fit to bust on down to Mexico and really get off the beaten path and rough it. Check out his update below:

Some of us on the Red Bull Air Force recently returned from a really great trip to the state of Mexico in the country of Mexico near the city of Mexico City. It was really Mexican and it was a blast! We were there to shoot a multi sport TV show for the Mexican sports channel Televisa. Kind of like our ESPN. It was a show funded by the state of Mexico to help promote tourism in that area. Altius, the company hired to produce the show did a hell of a job juggling many different sports and trying to nail all the shots they needed in a less than a week. There were mountain bikers, break dancers, free runners (Parkour), Kirby one of our Red Bull Air Race pilots and then there was Mike Swanson, Jon DeVore, Miles Daisher and myself there to do some base jumping, skydiving, wing suit flights, mountain flying and swooping.
