Jim Greco's career began in 1999 when Connecticut first saw him skate in the video of Zero Skateboards called 'misled youth'. No filter, aggressive teenagers with a punk rock attitude, and willing to try anything to land that sick trick perfectly on video. Young Jim Greco fits in perfectly, one of the best street-skaters Connecticut has ever seen.
Baker Skateboards released one of the most epic Skate videos in 2000 called 'Baker 2G', which also features Jim. Jim eventually left Baker Skateboards in 2008 and started the 'Deathwish Skateboard' brand with some of Bakers teammates. In 2014 Greco came out with his own brand Hammers based on individuality and creation.Jim has a passion for skating and for creating art, which he combines perfectly. This is especially evident in his films, where he portrays skating more as a form of art. The energy he once expended on narcotics is now fully invested in skateboarding and the creation of new projects, such as "Year 13".
