Hopkin Skate welcomes Jimmy to the team

by Hop on March 30, 2009

It is time Hopkin Skate put on a team member that was not born on a longboard. So in the interests of promoting all things transition, Jimmy Loricco has been put on the team.

I first met Jimmy at the 2007 Canberra Son of a Ditch event. When Bugs and I arrived at Anslie ditch, there was Jimmy, putting out his Rainskate wheels on the card table, and spruiking all things good about his urethane. Jimmy was one of the first ones in the ditch, showing everyone how to tame Anslie and have good time.

Jimmy’s attitude that day was part maverick, part skate entrepreneur, and part motivator. We are proud to have him on our team, we hope he brings all those qualities to the team.
