Clint Peterson.


Mad ill switch crooks in the nite-nite.

Clint is part of the Minneapolis skate scene that produced Steve Nesser, Emeric Pratt, Seth McCalum, Todd Bratud, and a bunch of others. At a tradeshow in 2001, a possibly drunk Jake Phelps suggested to Consolidated that Clint should be pro. They honored Jake's request. Clint departed for Stereo in 2003 when Jason Lee and Chris Pastras restarted the company. He and Benny Fairfax were the first two new riders on the team. Clint had the connection to Chris from riding for Osiris. He is into woodworking and making art.

There has been occasional rain all week so skateboarding has been spotty. I did roll at the park for a little bit last night. One of teens who has been skating there often rigged up an old SONY video camera so it outputs to digital instead of a tape. I'm curious to see how it works. I'm not sure what I'll be posting next week. Have a good weekend.
