Sk8Kingz Story
JUST/skat/Look Out!
Who is SK8kingz Production?
We are a production company made up of professionals, that have a passion for roller skating. We realized that there was a need to tell the real story about our history, culture and artistic expression. Over the past decades, Sk8Kingz, has been able to capture the evolutions of movements, elegance, creativity, and the mastery, of thousands of roller skaters through our video productions.
“If, I can tell their stories and show our similarities; the love we share for roller skating, then we will learn to have compassion, unity, togetherness and harmony. This will strengthen us as a community and will help to keep the art of roller skating alive.”

Who is Linwood D. Neverson?
I come from a family of skaters. My love of roller skating started in Brooklyn, NY at the Empire Rollerdrome at the age of 10. Roller skating was fun and it helped me use my time in a very productive manner. I can honestly say, roller skating saved my life because it kept me out of the streets.
I studied film production at Brooklyn College, and it was only a matter of time until I would be able to combine my love for film making and my love for roller skating.
The first time I shot a roller-skating session was at the close of the Empire Rollerdrome. It was a bittersweet moment for me. I was able to capture and preserve the richness of the culture, and history as it closed its doors forever. But it also opened up the passion and eagerness to continue to capture and preserve the art form of skating and its culture.
