I'm still waiting for the one I'm waiting for
 
while Shane didn't say he was with K2 in yearbook, on the k2factoryteam forums, Seth, yesterday said he knew Shane and K2 were talking, and today said that he just found out it was a done deal. Looks like K2 is going to have one hell of a kickass big mountain lineup of skiers.

life is too short to have any regrets
 
i think K2 should put out a team video at some point. I hope k2 lets shane design his own ski cuz the spatulas were an amazing unique idea and i think that shane is gonna be one of the people that will make a permanent change in skis.

proud to be riding K2s since i was 8

Work is like anti-hippie spray; they stay the fuck away from it

 
Imagine what will happen with the idea of the Spatula with a company like K2 behind him. Or maybe he'll be content with the Made'N AK's and Pistols...who knows.

On Friday, we'll have some stuff up. I've been super busy man, sorry to all on the delay, but it will be dope.

nice shane is argueably one of the skiers to descend upon the silvery north while battling those who make up the opposition against the fleet.

seeing shanes recent exploits, i wouldnt be suprised he'd with stockli or Blizzard..........all my respect of him is gone after the ski basing shit

atlantaski, id love to send you off one of shane's big cliffs without a parachute. shane is so sick, you will never be able to understand what he did and does for skiing.

Yep, its probably not too likely, but I'm sure he's got more people listening to him at K2 than Volant.

Oh and just so you all know, shane isnt with k2 yet. All things are pointing in that direction but its not quite a done deal yet. But dont be surprised when he does sign with k2.

-----------------

skiing is just another way to please yourself without the mess.

 
holy if shane is on k2 that is soo sick becuz then k2 will have both of the big mountain legends :)

Yes... floppy Spatulas! A perfect seqal after those noodles that where the Seth Pistols. Volant may suck, but my Volant Spatulas still rule supreme!

i am happy cus k2 will make a spatula desighn and people will buy the ski and experience the greatest pow ski ever wouldnt be suprised to see Seth on the new k2 spatula desighn its that good

Ill be the first one in line to get a pair and keep my spatulas as a collectors item.

 
this is pretty sick news, Shane is such a wicked skier, bout time hes got a wicked company behind him. I hope things work out.

They're both dumber than bricks... I don't care how hot they are, I wouldn't bone them even if they kept their damn mouths shut. I'd probably get a nasty case of sexually transmitted stupidity.

-Kamikaze
 
hey, ehy you guys remember when the spatulas were in stores... for like 2 years... BECAUSE NONE OF THEM SOLD... yeah that seems like a pretty good precedent to me for k2 wto make a similar ski... not like k2's trying to make money or anything.

thats big and awesome

but the spatula deal was this

volant took credit for the design and build of them, mcconkey said no way it was him with their support, volant said no, he got pissed, took the skis and sold them around tahoe and other places

-let people do what they want, ski how you want, make whoever you want your role model its your choice

-i love to ski, so should you, its fun, try it sometime

-thats what the internet is for anonymously slandering people-jason lee

 
no! shane must ride for volant and volant must make skis for shane! i knew atomic 'd fuck up volant ...

Likelihood is that K2 won't design a Spatula or anything like it as Volant would have owned the patent on the design of the ski and therefore the rights to produce it.

Shane is the man, I remember seeing his spatulas on the rack at the midmountain lodge at Squaw and I was like what the fuck are those and then i come out and I notice its Shane McConkey, cause of him I want to someday try SkiBASEing. Just flying through the air like that is so fucking cool

and more, much more than this, I did it my way
 
if shane joins k2 then they will have a kick ass big mountian team they might even take the tittle away from rossi as bast big mountian ski team. i doubt that we will ever see another ski like the spatula again(thank god) and volant has been struggling for years, they nearly went backrupt 4 years ago and they had there asses saved by another company(i dont remember who because it was so long ago). if atomic bought volant then this could be a good thing, and maybe get some new technology put into the skis.

 
i want to see mcschlonkey ski-vase that giant cliff on hood, lookers left on mile... or palmer... big, way left... i think that would be cool.

Of course K2 is going to make Shane his own pro model they would be stupid not to. He’s the best skier I know of. In big motion. And they are lucky to have him on their team so I’m sure they will treat him right.

Is it something i said so fuck you to.
 
he is not close to the best big mountain skier, hugo, and shane are much better, and he doesnt need his own pro modle becasuse the pistols are perfect

not close to the best big mtn. skier? ok, he's not the best big mtn. skier...but he is dang close.

I'm still waiting for the one I'm waiting for
 
I would without any shadow of a doubt say that he is one of the best big mountain riders in the world. He is so fearless its mindnumbing.

Actually scratch that though, anyone seen 'There is something about McConkey'? He rips at fucking everything!! People who have only seen his more recent segments might not entirely understand his versatility (that said I haven't seen Yearbook yet), but he is so good at all aspects of skiing!

I think that's really good news about K2!

 
the only reason he isnt in the top is because, im sorry to say this, but old, and hurts himself too much. volant didnt see it in him to be profitable but ther were like ten other companies waiting for him
