Most shred edits are all about sick lines and rad stunts. Awesome eye-candy footage but not much in the way of story line or dramatic tension. Not so with McConkey, the new biopic about legendary freeskier Shane McConkey from Match Stick Productions. This film is imbued with tension from the opening scene because you know that at some point this amazingly charismatic character who has turned reckless living into an art form is going to push it too far, and he is going to die.

Here is the trailer to McConkey. The full-length film is even better. If you get a chance to see it, see it.
