Jimmy Wilkins

Born September 10, 1993 in Columbus, Ohio is a professional vert skater celebrated for his explosive and fearless style. Introduced to skating through Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, he built a backyard vert ramp as a teen only to face a city lawsuit. At 17, he moved to San Diego where he now skates Tony Hawk's ramp regularly. He turned pro for Creature in 2018; later, he joined the Real team in 2022 which was marked by a surprise reveal with Hawk and Chris Miller designed boards. Wilkins, an X Games gold medalist (2014) and Dew Tour winner, is renowned for his ability to continue to push vert skating to new heights and remain in the top vert skaters in the world year after year. His sponsors include Real Skateboards, Spitfire Wheels, Thunder Trucks, and Monster Energy. Now in his 30s and based in Carlsbad, California, Wilkins continues to redefine vert with epic parts and a creative style that inspires skaters across all disciplines.
