Studio No Border brought in a consultant to ensure the authenticity of the skateboard designs so that they’d work in reality. She asked if they were interested in designing the skateboards and then introduced the team to the director, Hiroko Utsumi. Romain’s involvement in the SK8 The Infinity anime began when he was leaving a Bones meeting about Carole & Tuesday and ran into the producer for the new skateboarding anime.

Notably, both series were created by Shinichiro Watanabe. After Studio No Border was created, they worked on Carole & Tuesday. In the past, Romain worked with Studio Bones on Space Dandy.
