About Jimmy
The son of a professional ballerina and an orchestra conductor, Wilkins is familiar with the importance of practice and is an artist on the ramp.

Raised in Ohio, Wilkins now lives in SoCal, where he skates on Tony Hawk's ramp. The young talent draws skaters from other disciplines to the ramp just to watch his fresh style.
