JIMMY WALKER
Born: CHICAGO, IL USA
Birthdate: 07/03/1971
Height: 5 ft 11 in
Weight: 170 lbs.
Hometown: STREAMWOOD, IL
Occupation: PRO RIDER / MANAGER OF SKATE PARK
Marital Status: Married
Participant since: 1979
Competitor since: 1988
Notable:
Jimmy has been slowly creeping up in the rankings but still remains one of the underrated riders. One of the smoothest riders on the ramp, he's able to combine variation airs in both directions, high 540s, flairs both ways and now tailwhips to consistently ride for top ten finishes.

Quote:
"They [organizers] turned me pro after '94, I won the amateur belt. They invited me to the X Games and said I had to turn pro to do it, so then I turned pro. Koji, when he turned pro we snuck him into his first contest because he wasn't even a qualified amateur. And he was underage and I had to sign the waiver. He ended up qualifying for the Gravity Games."
