This month’s issue of Thrasher has a great interview and amazing cover photo of Minneapolis’s finest, Steve Nesser. The Lebanese skateboarder shares some of his stories about traveling the globe alongside the likes of Tony Hawk, Bam Margera, and more along with what it was like to brave some of the harshest winters America has to offer. Nesser also talks about some of his experiences of running his skateshop Familia, earning a pro-model shoe from Adio and filming for the upcoming Birdhouse Skateboards video, The Beginning.
The photos that go with his interview are great too. One particular sequence that stood out to me was his ollie over a waist high wall into a short, steep bank. The cover shot, however, takes the cake for being the best photo in the magazine. He sets a world record for skateboarding by fifty-fiftying a round rail that covers down nearly 50 stairs. It’s like a fifty-fifty-fifty! With that kind of performance, I can’t wait to see the Birdhouse video.
Steve is one of the nicest, hardest-working and most professional skateboarders I have ever met and this interview does him justice. I highly recommend picking up this month’s issue, look for the jaw-dropping cover as seen above, and check his article out. You won’t be disappointed.
