Meeting Mark Stamer in Hamburg for a session this year, you could feel certain that this guy would amaze you once more. Not only with his flawless skating but with his friendly and humble personality as well. Some things just won't change. It's been long overdue that one can get a HD-view of his skating again here on Be-Mag. Not like Mark has been out of the game or something... He probably was just too busy doing some decent scientific research or getting his Nosepress game on. So check out the One Minute One Spot that he dropped at the Wilhelmsburg Banks this summer.

One day during the summer a group of Hamburg locals went to the famous Wilhemsburg Banks spot for a session. This spot has been located in the urban district „Wilhemsburg“ forever, but wasn't skateable for years since parts of the brick-built walls were littered with holes and the chance to run into some fellas that wanted to give you some additional holes as well was highly likely. But since some Skateboarders took care of the first-mentioned conditions and furthermore added a little coping-thing to the banks, this spot got really fun to skate again. That's what Mark must have felt when he had a fling at those banks that day. Definitely another edit that shows off his allround-skate-whatever-is-fun talent.
