Can You Repeat That? with Steve Nesser

As we’re all well familiar, skate spots lead cyclical lives — a spot that’s good to go one month might then be off limits for another 4 months, only to be unknobbed and gloriously skateable for several months after that.

The ledges outside of the US Bank building (formerly the Pilsbury Building) are one such spot. Upon hearing that it was once again a ‘go’, we knew what to do: hit up Steve Nesser to film an installment of Can You Repeat That?. *Note: this is somehow the first piece of content we’ve published with Steve. We’re still scratching our heads on that one.

We returned to the recently unknobbed ledges to recreate a line Steve filmed 23 years prior in Fobia Skateshop’s Joy & Pain, a video that helped usher him and fellow Minnesota natives Clint Peterson, Emeric Pratt and Seth McCallum into the spotlight. We spent the day playing cat-and-mouse with security, dodging Vikings fans (SKOL!), and getting a history lesson on Minnesota skateboarding from the early aughts.
