With a blend of brute force, style, and raw talent, McIntosh unleashes his signature speed and aggression on some of the steepest faces around the world, and he has the video to show for it. Here he is skiing one of the craziest lines we've ever seen, and here he his taking a famously big tumble when it doesn't all work out. From his background as an alpine racer, to his years at the top of the Freeskiing World Tour circuit, to his present spot as a veteran of the TGR filming roster, McIntosh keeps the pedal to the metal and continues to be one of the most exciting skiers to watch.

To name just a few career highlights:

• Starred in 14 Teton Gravity Research Films, as well as films with Sherpas Cinema, Warren Miller, and others.
• Nominated for Best Air, Best Line and Male Skier Of The Year, Powder Awards 2015
• Two-time winner of Powder Magazines "Best Line" award
• Summited Denali and skied the "Orient" 2017
• Skied Pequeno Alpamayo in Bolivia 2017
• First Descent of the east face of the "Devils Thumb" near Petersburg, Alaska
