Owner of Ride and one of only a handful of first generation Coventry
skateboarders still rolling, Jim Skin has continually ripped both on a BMX
and skateboard since 1982. Coming from a family with a strong background
in cycling, Jim was sponsored by the Peugeot BMX team in the mid 80's
before being picked up by the UK Zorlac team. Skin was a common face
around the vert scene, and continues to kill ramps of any size. He also has
the loudest leins-to-tail and the best smith grinds ever.
