Bare Air, the Palisades, Squaw Valley
ID Code: squ010 spring 1995
5-145. The name Shane McConky is well known to anyone who has Watched a ski Movie, back at the time I found myself on top of the Palisades at squaw Valley, he was just this crazy young guy that was throwing back flips of the 40 ft cliff. Somewhere along the way the marketing rep I was shooting for came up with the idea of a naked jump for this energy bar ( naked energy) that he was working on. Next thing I know 100 dollar bills changed hands, and Shane ditched his cloths and skated off the edge, doing this spread eagle jump. I captured it using my fish eye lens, I took a sequence of shoots as Shane launches past me and stuck the landing . I selected this frame for its political correctness.
